It’ll be an ongoing roleplay, and all that jazz. Knock yourself out.] The City of Unanimity is one of the few places in all of Lavation where all of the Races can come together to live in the same community. And this does mean all races. The sun of Lavation was just starting to rise, with the moon disappearing beyond the horizon. The entire area was bathed in a warm orange gold glow, adding to the perfect harmony of the place. Though there are no real roads in this part of the Acerian Territory (as in most cities on Lavation) there are clear pathways, many times lined with small stones, or long sticks. There are some buildings built onto the ground, made into small huts of wood and stone. Also, there are buildings above in the tree like many of the Liarvre villages. The only difference being that instead of just rope ladders up to all the platforms, there are simple stairways as well - though a few of the levels in the treetops where there are only homes still can only be acessed by rope ladders. There is a large feild located in the center of the city, where those with temporary shops come to sell their goods. In the middle of the feild there is a lake, pond, whatever you'd like to call it. It's large enough so that water-dwelling races can set up mutliple trading stands along the edge of the water, but not so large that it takes up the entire feild. Coming off of this lake in various directions were what would appear to be streams. The only thing separating them from being streams are the depth, as though they are narrow, they are deep enough for water dwelling Races to be able to move easily through them. The small 'streams' connect to either the nearby ocean, one of the various larger lakes in the area, or simply run alongside the pathways where the other buildings are. The homes of the water-dwelling creatures are often time found either in the ocean, or one of the larger lakes spoken of. Nobody tended to live in the center field or lake, thats where all the shopping was done. The City of Unanimity certainly lived by its name: Unanimity meaning harmony. Here, even the followers of different Etherials managed to live a peaceful life together side by side. It was the perfect place to live, in peace. And that was exactly why he was there in the more deserted area of Unanimity, the area designated for Trekkers passing through with homes thus empty until one takes temporary residence in it. The creature in question was a Xialura, his fur a dark chocolate color all over. There were lightly mocha swirling designs along his side, coming from the edge of each eye and other various places. His eyes went with the coloring well, a deep amethyst. The Xialura, Dinvehr, was currently sitting on the balcony of the small home he’d moved into for now in the trunk of a tree. The ‘balcony’ was a thick branch, the base nearest the trunk polished from many pairs of different feet traveling along it. He’d originally come to Unanimity to enjoy the peace of the world, enjoy his ‘time off’ so to speak. But it became clear to him that eventually, in a place as peaceful as this, things had to go wrong. He planned to be there when they did. Spreading his wings out behind him, he let himself fall off the branch and glide over the various Lavatians walking out into the early morning to go get their shops set up. Sunrise was doing a wonder on the central lake, playing idly across the barely moving water and sparkling across the ripples that showed up in various places from water dwelling races starting towards the edge of the lake to set up their own shop. Shifting his gaze lightly, he caught sight of others here and there in the housing area in both the permanent and temporary homes, stepping just outside their doorway to watch the day unfurl. Yes...everything here was wonderfully peaceful. It seemed nothing could rupture this existence. He only hoped it would stay that way. -------------------- "When I'm weak, You make me strong. When I'm blind, You shine your light on me. 'Cause I'll never get by, living on my own ability. How refreshing to know You don't need me. How amazing to find that You want me. So I'll stand by Your truth, and I'll fight with Your strength, untill You bring the victory. By the power of Christ in me." ---Casting Crowns, 'In Me'
