Cities within the great continent were known as Auroras, and when Skullius perceived one, he was flabbergasted by its scale.
The settlement he and Darwel had passed before was nothing when compared to the grandeur that an Aurora possessed. He could have sworn that the one they were passing through now was several times larger than Genhuis, though, to his surprise, its actual population was greatly controlled.
Perhaps it was the fact that the typical scammer stalls selling varying types of merchandise, information and ludicrous crap about future predictions, were nowhere to be seen, relieving the streets of crowding.
