This place was once just a city in the sands. The proud city of Haria now stands changed, a land blooming with promise. The young woman in red stands admiring the colorful starburst tiling in the square as the gentle sound of bubbling, falling water from the fountain fills her ears.
The wide roads have been decorated with new tiling, and each one leads to somewhere more inviting than the last. With such a diverse city, each turn is a new experience -- a chance to learn more of the lively people around her, and for others to learn about her and her own people. No matter which road she decides to take, it will be a fine choice.
Bright, warm colors float overhead on banners and awnings, tea houses with full, savory smells and restaurants with the promise of good food flood her senses. Each road rekindles her curiosity and no matter where she goes, the knowledge that she is safe on her journey around the city gives her the greatest peace of mind to keep going.
Shops boast the highest quality trinkets, supplies, clothing, anything one could think of, proudly displaying their wares to pique the interest of passersby. Between the items they offer and the friendly faces of the shopkeeps, it’s hard for the young woman to resist buying everything that catches her eye.
Before she’s aware, the sun has begun to set and early evening settles in, the first faint stars beginning to dot the sky. Perhaps she should get home. Maybe one more look around. Just one more.
A new life has been given to this city, and it’s here to stay.
