William, Isabella, and their daughter Aimee, accompanied by a carriage driver, embarked on a tour of Silverpine City. They weren't expecting much, assuming that a city in the desert would have little more than sand dunes and people in white clothes. As they traveled through the city, they found that their expectations were somewhat accurate – Silverpine was a decent city but lacked typical tourist attractions.
The city was situated only 10 kilometers from the sea, which heavily influenced its culture and lifestyle. As they moved through the streets, they noticed how the city's architecture and economy were intertwined with the sea. The buildings were designed to withstand the harsh desert climate while also embracing the sea's proximity.
"Most of our trade and livelihood comes from the sea," The carriage driver explained while pointing out to the bustling port where ships were docked. "Fishing and trade are the lifelines of our city."
