The Reflection of the Sacred City

The cool breeze from the Alps blew through the Sacred City, lifting the cloudy mist lingering above the city like a veil away and revealing the clean city with golden lights under the clear night sky. The luxurious palaces, brightly lit streets, unique buildings, and glowing towers that resembled a network of blood vessels when looked down upon from above were brimming with life.

To the east, the Sacred City was leaning against a mountain. The tall peak resembled the back of a dragon, and allowed anyone upon it to enjoy the night view of the entire Sacred City.

Normally, the walls of the mountain would have some reflections of the lights in the Sacred City, but the mountain was currently pitch-black and had blended with the empty night sky, as if it had been devoured by something!
