It was already noontime when they reached the mountain peak.
Toby told Angor that there was a big city on the other side of the mountain. Angor didn't know exactly know how big it was until he saw the city. He finally realized that he had totally underestimated Toby's message.
He thought the water along the mountain foot was a giant lake that was connected to the sea. But now, he just saw that the lake was actually inland, which was as large as half of Midnight Sovereign.
The flawless water surface sat there like a giant natural mirror that showed the reflection of the sky and clouds. Countless waterfowl were chasing each other among the clouds above.
The city was established near the lake. It wasn't walled-up like what Angor had expected. Instead, it started from the mountain foot and stretched along the edge of the lake until it reached the horizon.
