471 The Dunes 4 (Ch.472)

-A Year Later

~The City Wall, Dune City.~

It was just a little past dawn and the Dune City was already fully alive and bustling with the rush of morning activities.

The street vendors and shop owners hurried about to set up their stalls for the day and the city guard made their usual patrol through the streets, ensuring everything was in order.

The sound of carts rumbling through the cobblestone streets, and the clanging of blacksmiths at work echoed down the streets, creating a familiar cacophony. 

The air was filled with the smell of wood smoke from the hearths and the scent of freshly baked bread from the bakeries.

The laborers marched out to the fields in groups, ready for the day's work, their goofy conversations and boisterous laughter left in their wake.
