Dulin was still as it was before.
When dusk came, this most populated city in Westland was illuminated with lights, darkened by the smoke from the chimneys, warmed by the nobles’ saloons and contaminated by the biological wastes of the beggars and wanderers.
This city had always been noisy; there were traveling merchants from all over the world and scholars from all parts of the land.
Viscount Tich Nedgabel Andrew Golbagd was one of the scholars from Narcissus. He majored in the mainland’s History of Art at Dulin University. Although even those who knew him well had never seen his paintings, there was not much disparity between his image and that of a genuine artist.
