The girls walked and stopped, and it took about half a day to reach the city wall.
Strangely, this city wall could be seen from a distance, and it looked very high, like a mountain range across the plain.
But by the time they reached the wall, they found it was only about eight meters high. Although they couldn't see the end of the wall, this height was still too low, especially when they looked at it from a distance, the proportion of it seemed different than it was now.
Such a low wall, they couldn't have seen it from so far away, but if the wall was as high as they thought, they wouldn't have gotten here so quickly.
Moreover, the delicate ladies who had never exercised before, although they had stopped to rest for a while, still seemed too relaxed.
Antonya and Ingrid had never walked such a long distance. By rights, they should have been exhausted halfway, but they managed to finish the journey without complaining about their feet, seemingly supported by some unknown force.
