Welcome to Bluzand

Ecthys was a city cloaked in rose and red.

The first thing that Defi took in was the red of the roofing tiles and the pale reddish tint of the thick city walls.

It was built on a little spit of land that jutted out into the river, and there were harbors on three sides of the city. The north of the city were low hills and flat plains that were arranged in cultivated parcels.

The intimidating walls, built for protection against pirates and raiders, encircled the city. In the bright light of the noonday sun, the stone of the walls glowed a pale rosy color that stood out against the green of the river and the gold of ripening fields of grain.

"The stone is ordinary," commented Marmocha, "it's the mortar that they spread over the surface to strengthen the walls that gives the color. I hear they make it out of shells of red clams."
