Bab 263: Aedrider’s Capital [Part 2]

When Therentil made the comment about moving up the mountain, Jade found her eyes finally pulled to the very mountain he referred to. At first she had not seen it because of her intense focus on the abundance of light crystals in all the homes.

Not only that, they were currently in the shadow of the mountain and there was no sunlight to illuminate it. Looking forward, she noticed the peaks stretch high above the clouds. She could make out lights of the upper layers of the city twinkling as the city wound itself around and up the mountain.

Jade could also make out massive walls in various intervals up the side of the mountain. Those were likely the gates that separated the various tiers of the city. According to what she had been told, the palace took up the entirety of the peak. It was currently out of sight due to the clouds.
