Capital City.
The moment Aaron entered the city, he felt as though a painted scroll were slowly unfurling before him.
The official road was broad, pedestrians packed it shoulder to shoulder, and shops of every kind lined both sides.
Besides the usual taverns and teahouses, the most eye-catching sights were the various fighting pits, offering everything from cockfights to dogfighting wagers.
There were even contests between female sumo wrestlers!
