Unlike Athen's boisterous drunken streets, filled with creamy stone and red terracotta roofs, Nanjing seemed much more peaceful, with its architecture mainly light blue tiled roofs and wooden structures.
I noticed as we passed through the likely more upper-class area of the city, there were a lot more women and children wandering the cobbled streets.
None of which so much as batted an eye at the parade of guards and carriage carried by pegasi, like it was a usual occurrence.
The city's land seemed flat, divided by tall grey stone walls to artificially raised land.
We entered through a gate and climbed the small slope.
The buildings here were much more magnificent than the ones below.
All were walled behind their own private walls with nameplates above the gates.
The few orcs wandering, were more garishly and conservatively dressed in bright colors.
So how are we liking the story so far? I'm doing my best to learn more about ancient Chinese culture but if I get anything wrong, educate me in the comments please <3 I'm a tad bit more clued up on the ancient greeks.
Here's a tidbit of lore:
I'll try and draw a map to show you the continents they're on. The aliens (Pleiadians) created mock replicas of the cities they abducted the humans from, so the culture, architecture, etc. is very similar to that, though they've developed differently (especially since they're human-animal hybrids) and a lot slower than modern-day Earth.
For starters, there's no electricity, though there is plumbing. They frown on science and the religion of the ancients. Do you want to know why? Keep reading ;)
