In truth, everyone present had lived inland. None of them had ever seen the sea before.
After all, transportation in this world was poorly developed. Nobody would travel thousands of miles to the coast just to catch a glimpse of the ocean.
Never mind anything else-the journey alone held far too many threats. In some places, travelers even had to cross perilous jungles and swamps riddled with traps.
