THE royal city was in the shape of a donut, with the royal palace at the highest point in the center, the private residences of the nobility and middle class, the educational and manufacturing district containing schools and workshops, the commercial district full of all kinds of shops, and the lower-class residential district where commoners lived positioned in concentric circles.
The districts were divided with streets running between them, delineating four individual rings. Eight thoroughfares radiated out from the royal palace in the center, cutting through all four districts. If you looked down at the city from above, it probably looked like a layered Baumkuchen cake cut into eight servings.
Iâd learned about the layout of the royal city by looking at a simple map, but there was one thing I couldnât help but wonder about.
The fact that there is only a certain amount of land in each of the districts means they canât increase the number of buildings, right? If so, the city canât continue to grow and developâ¦
When I asked, Mama explained it to me proudly.
She said that once every two years, they used massive-scale magic to move the earth to add space to districts that needed room to expand. They used huge amounts of earth magic and non-attributed magic to push the buildings and streets out of the way without damaging them. Then, new homes and shops could be built in the new space.
Whyâd they build the city in such a troublesome way in the first place?!
Oh, whatâs that? Mama says the first king wanted to look down from his castle on the hill and see a beautiful cityscape? Whatâs so beautiful about a Baumkuchen city?!
The first king was a strange guyâ¦
It would be impossible to see the entire commerce district in one day, so we focused on the section of the commerce district my sister was most familiar with, given that this area was close to the royal academy.
The carriage rattled and swayed as we traveled. It wasnât that the roads were shoddy or anything. The thoroughfares were cobblestone and wide enough to have about three lanes. There were even sidewalks.
After leaving our house, the first thing we saw were dozens of huge and lavish mansions. Grandpa Goucheâs place was more like a miniature fortress than a house.
Next, we came to an area populated with ostentatious houses of varying sizes.
We traveled straight up a road lined with what looked like martial arts studios until we arrived at the royal academy looming directly in front of us.
We got out of the carriage at the royal academy. The plan was to wander around on foot from here, window shopping.
I held my sisterâs hand, and Dee was on my other side. Paul hovered silently behind us.
When we came out to another thoroughfare, different from the one weâd driven down in the carriage, it looked like an event was happening! So many people were there, it was almost impossible to move! If I wasnât careful, Iâd get separated from my group and lost in the blink of an eye.
