Choke!

2nd October 1655.

Dakshin Bharatiya Empire, Vijayanagar State, Capital City - Hampi.

It was already approaching evening in the beautiful city of Hampi. Due to the increase in security measures in the empire, it is now considered safe to commute at night. Additionally, every street in the capital is lit with street lamps. Although this service could not be provided to all the cities in the empire, it is available in all the capital cities of various states — including its financial, cultural, and educational capitals.

Due to the street lamps in these cities, the lifestyle of the people changed accordingly. People started to spend more money, and businesses like the catering industry, lodging industry, and other service-oriented industries saw increased profits as people started to travel more. Occasionally, townsfolk would visit the city as a tourist destination.
