Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City
Within a grand hall in the Citadel, decorated with beautiful murals and paintings depicting the history of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City, a high-domed ceiling stretched above, forged from magically reinforced steel and glass.
Sunlight filtered through the glass, casting a shimmering glow on the white tiles and illuminating the massive circular table, which had been crafted from an ancient oak-steel tree. Surrounding the table were ten high-backed chairs, each designated for the inner circle members—the leaders of the various sections of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City responsible for every significant decision affecting the city and its inhabitants.
