Burdened as you are with an excess of weight, you struggle to move.
Before the Imperial Palace 
  Light from braziers and lampposts illuminate the square like it was midday. 
The roads from the south, east and west converge here to form a great square.
The gates of the Palace lie open to the north.  The square itself is made
from the same fused black stone that all of the Imperial roads seem to be 
constructed from.  However, here the smooth surface of the road has been 
deeply etched to show a huge Symbol of the Imperial Codex.  At each of the 
cardinal directions surrounding the Symbol you see smaller representations 
of the individual Sect Symbols.  Each of these details pass quickly, for 
your eye is almost immediately drawn to the black stone cross rising from 
the center of the great Symbol.

Rolling Fields of Wheat 
  Acre upon acre of wheat fields fill your view from the edge of the tree
groves east to the cliffs which overlook the Dragon Sea.  Due to the year-
long growth cycle some of the fields are ripe, the stalks golden brown
waving gently in the warm, constant, easterly sea wind.  Others have already
been harvested and the stalks are being burned, the ashes tilled into the
ground to feed the next crop.  The freshly upturned soil overpowers the
salty sea wind with its earthen musk.  Some are newly planted, young shoots
of green piercing the dark brown soil mixed with clover, bees flying about
to feed upon their small flowers.  Still other fields are expanses of green
immature stalks, the farmers waiting just a little while longer for them to
ripen golden brown, then to be harvested.  The cycle of growth seems to be
coming full circle.  To the east one can see a moderately sized vineyard
of large red grapes.  To the north are fields of beans.

A Vineyard of Large Red Grapes 
  Stretching up the hill in well-maintained rows this vineyard grows exceedingly
large grapes of a deep purple-red hue.  Workers carefully tend to the vines with
great skill, tying and pruning, the leftover leaves placed within a sack for use
in the local delicacies.  The vines themselves grow in a climbing, if haphazard
way, guided by being tied to a strange fence-like structure running the entire
length of each row, which keeps the fruit off the ground and in the sun for far
better yields than if left to the whim of nature.  In the northeast portion of 
the vineyard is a large wood and stone building.  To the south are great fields
of wheat, to the west groves of trees and beyond the hills the town of Balator.

A Vineyard of Large Red Grapes 
  Stretching up the hill in well-maintained rows this vineyard grows exceedingly
large grapes of a deep purple-red hue.  Workers carefully tend to the vines with
great skill, tying and pruning, the leftover leaves placed within a sack for use
in the local delicacies.  The vines themselves grow in a climbing, if haphazard
way, guided by being tied to a strange fence-like structure running the entire
length of each row, which keeps the fruit off the ground and in the sun for far
better yields than if left to the whim of nature.  In the northeast portion of 
the vineyard is a large wood and stone building.  To the south are great fields
of wheat, to the west groves of trees and beyond the hills the town of Balator.

Rolling Fields of Wheat 
  Acre upon acre of wheat fields fill your view from the edge of the tree groves
east to the cliffs which overlook the Dragon Sea.  Due to the year long growth
cycle some of the fields are ripe, the stalks golden brown waving gently in the
warm, constant, easterly sea wind.  Others have already been harvested and the
stalks are being burned, the ashes tilled into the ground to feed the next crop.
The freshly upturned soil overpowers the salty sea wind with its earthen musk.
Some are newly planted, young shoots of green piercing the dark brown soil mixed
with clover, bees flying about to feed upon their small flowers.  Still other
fields are expanses of green immature stalks, the farmers waiting just a little
while longer for them to ripen golden brown, then to be harvested. The cycle of
growth coming full circle.  To the north one can see a moderately sized vineyard 
of large red grapes.
