Encampment I

Step!

I stepped out of the teleportation gate and saw the people. I felt relieved.

Since yesterday, I had been worried. Not daring to believe them completely went they said, the natives are controlling the other side of this formation. Now, seeing the people, I have no doubt.

"Stay in the encampment. Going outside is forbidden," informed one of the hundred guards who are guarding the teleportation gate. The guards also threw a crystal at me, which I caught, and sent to my core.

I looked around and couldn't help but be surprised by what I had seen.

The empty hills had been transformed into a city. The abodes are everywhere, hundreds of thousands of them. They have set them around the hills and the lakes; some had set them on top of the lakes.

Those abodes are especially good. I am sure they belong to the connected and the powerful.
