In this city’s social circles, it was customary to bring a small gift when invited to a banquet or ball.

The typical gifts included sculptures, fine fabrics, artworks, or rare animals—items that could be enjoyed during the event alongside the host.

Recently, the most popular gifts in Beddenheim were Lenslet specialties: magic slab cameras, northern artworks, glowing mana stones, and magical heating devices.

"What kind of gift might the Northern Magician have brought?"
"I'm genuinely curious. A present directly from a Lenslethian is a rare treat."
"Is this the first time a Lenslethian has attended a banquet here?"
"Not quite. Before the Assassination War, the Lenslet ambassador attended a few events. That was when the magic slab camera trend began in the city."
"Oh my! So the magic slab camera trend started back then? Now I’m even more intrigued."

Nobles who remembered the first Lenslethian delegate to attend a banquet watched Arad, the Envoy of Lenslet, with great anticipation.

If a mere ambassador had brought cameras, they expected the envoy of an entire nation—and the Northern Magician, no less—to bring something extraordinary.
