Chapter Five: The City-State of Orvil
After a good four hours of flying, we finally made it to our destination.
âThere it is! Thatâs Orvil, meow!â Kilpha exclaimed, pointing down at an imposing-looking fortified city.
âItâs bigger than the royal capital,â Shess noted. I thought she sounded a little bitter, but that might just have been my imagination.
Orvil was indeed much bigger than the capital of the Giruam Kingdom. Looking down on it from above, Iâd say it was about twice the size, in fact. A large castle stood at its heart, and I even spotted a colosseum over on the west side. Iâd been told that the city held gladiator matches in the colosseum, and every few years, there was a big tournament in which all of the strongest warriors from the neighboring nations competed against each other. I hoped I would get time to go and watch one of these contests while we were here.
The city itself was surrounded by farmlands and pastures, where farmers were out harvesting crops, and livestock were grazing peacefully. With highways connecting it to all of its major neighboring nationsâthe Giruam Kingdom to the northeast, the Duchy of Alpa to the east, the holy nation of Jestak to the west, and the mercenary nation of Sazabi to the southâOrvilâs location made it a bustling trade hub. In fact, it occupied such a crucial strategic spot, none of the four nations surrounding it dared to antagonize the city-state, and if any of the nations were ever to attempt an invasion, they would most likely face fierce reprisals from the other three. For that reason, Orvil hadnât been involved in a single war for over twenty years, allowing it to grow and flourish in peace, so it was little wonder that it was larger than the royal capital of the Giruam Kingdom.
âMaster, should I land in that meadow on the right?â Dramom asked me. It was a pertinent question, for if we got any closer to the city, the residents might think they were under attack by a dragon.
âPlease do,â I replied.
âAs you command.â
We landed in that nearby meadow and completed the last leg of our trip on foot.
âââââ
âDo commoners really have to line up for so long just to enter a city?â Shess muttered after weâd been standing in line for roughly three hours. Around two-thirds of the line that had been in front of us when we joined had made it through the city gates by this point, so I surmised itâd be another ninety minutes or so before we got through ourselves. All in all, that was pretty much as long as you would expect to wait to get on one of the more popular attractions at a certain famous theme park.
âYup, thatâs right, Shess,â I said. âWe commoners sometimes have to line up for an entire day to enter a city.â
âAn entire day?!â she repeated in shock.
âYup, an entire day.â
As a royal, Shess naturally got to skip all the lines when entering a place.
