All the Blue Star people present held Hope Town in high regard.
The development of their own territories was decent, but after seeing Hope Town, they felt like their achievements were nothing in comparison—Hope Town's growth was truly all-encompassing.
Need an economy? They've got it.
Need military strength? They've got that too.
Managing both at once—how can you not admire that?
Of course, when they came, they also looked into Hope Town's success story, and found out that the Lord never really showed up in person.
When they realized this, man, were they envious!
In the beginning, they forgot to hide their identities, and faced all sorts of trouble while building their territories—balancing construction while dealing with unreasonable, scheming residents always itching to take over. Honestly, it was exhausting! Later on, as they got more loyal followers, residents started living stable lives, the situation finally stabilized, and control went firmly into their hands.
