SKY CITY | SKY CITY p1 [FREE]

INSIDE THE WALLS CYCLE

Having got out of the deep dungeon, returned from the dragon hunt, or completed an important order of the king, the heroes need rest. Uncomfortable sleeping bag in a hastily set up camp only adds bruises in the night; food taken for the journey loses its taste on the third day, and you can't feel your feet from the continuous walking. But it's not so in the city. A warm bed, tasty hot meals, and long days of spending gold in the shops of local craftsmen. Though even here there are problems, of which the heroes may become a part.

SKY CITY ADVENTURE

SKY CITY

The city hovering in the clouds, often visible from many corners of the world, awaits visitors with any whims and tastes. But is the city so wonderful behind the scenes?

Expensive entertainment. Even an hour spent in the city can turn a wealthy nobleman into a poor man - so good the local entertainment, the shops with fashionable clothes, and the traders of fine, rare goods are. The opposite is true as well - unique goods sold only here can not only emphasize, but also raise the status of a poor citizen and turn him into a wealthy nobleman. Even though it is only an image, the journey to the city and the possession of unique things will open new doors and acquaintances, because not everyone can become a guest of the city.

The way up. There are only two ways to get to the city officially. A wealthy citizen can pay the amount of money which is substantial for him and huge for everyone else, by making a contribution to the floating miracle. In this case, he and his family will be allowed to stay in the city for a while. The other option is to be invited by Seekers Society. This mysterious circle of people owns the Sky City and attracts more and more money and influence on their side.

Inner life. Sky City is wonderful and beautiful on the outside, but this beauty has its price that guests do not think about. Huge resources, including human ones, are spent to support the city. Hundreds of workers work to provide the city with everything it needs under terrible conditions on the ground. Many artisans, masters, artists, and actors have to work in the city day and night, filling it with goods and services and not getting the desired recognition. There are terrible rumors about the illegal trade, including creatures trade; anything is done here to attract people with power and money.
