The Ming Prince's Tour of the City Part II

While Berengar was on his way back home after putting an end to the war he was fighting against the catholic world. Hans was taking the Ming Prince Zhu Zhi, and the Anangpur Emperor Dharya Tomara on a tour of the city. The first noticeable difference from this tour, and the last one that Dharya had taken part of, were the streetlights which were on every corner. Though they were inactive due to it being day time. 

The next surprising change was the streetlights which hung in the air and provided traffic signals to those who drove vehicles. Dharya gazed with shock upon these devices, and Zhu Zhi was even more astonished, quickly asking what the source of the streetlight's "flame" was.

"Tell me something. How do you provide fire to these lights that are strung in the air? Are they replaced daily? I'm curious how they function."

Hans took a sip from his milk before responding to the man's question with an innocent expression on his face.
