Mountains

UnEnding Agony is a Mountains Region in the Kingdom of Nereid Lykandos.

~ The mountains wished to challenge the sky itself, they dominated the horizon. With glistening white caps, like a perfect storybook picture, the mountain range lay to the north. Like slumbering giants beneath thick blankets of white they lay in dreamless sleep as the eons ticked by like the second hand of a clock. They soared upward as if determined to kiss the heavens. Just looking at them it was easy to see why the ancient Greeks thought of the Gods on Mount Olympus, ruling from their home in the clouds. Each of them was white-peaked, but nothing like the neat line around a chocolate waffle cone. The snow reached down from the cap in craggy white fingers, no doubt up close there were mighty cracks in the rock deep packed with ice. The mountains lay in a great line like the spine of the land. It was as if long ago they were a great beast, only to lie down one day and never get up. Perhaps the beast fell into an enchanted sleep, perhaps its soul was still in there. The range was high to the west and low to the east, curling at the end like a tail. The mountains act like walls to the city located inside the mountain range of Un-Ending Agony. Rustic cabins dotted the grassy hills as trees stood up like spikes, zigzagging the border of stone roads and unpolished homes. The skies remained dark and gloomy as the clouds surrounded the sky blocking rays of sunlight to pass in. Deeper inside the city they scent of the air gradually takes a fruity and spicy shift as travelers encounter the marketplace. Lovers stroll hand in hand, casually browsing, whilst housewives hustle and bustle, and haggle over the price of the exotic fruits and jewelry. The footpaths were crowded with stalls selling sacks of nuts and dried fruit, or meat roasting on roasting skewers. Powdered spices lay in rust red and dusty yellow piles, or spilled bright green from sacks as large as feed bags. Furthermore the meat shops was as white as death. It smells of blood and sawdust and its tiled interiors offers a refuge from the heat. Big pieces of meat: the shoulders, the forelegs, the haunches, of different shades of red streaked with tallow or suet, that swung on hooks in the shadow against the gray-white tiling of the walls. The fowls dangled in a row a little to the fore of the meat. The feet of the hens were a sickly bluish yellow, and the toes, cramped together yet flaccid, still suggested the fatigue which follows agony. The eyes bulged under thin blue-tinged lids and on the heads and necks about the close-shut beaks bunches of reddish brown feathers had been left as decorations. But who knows if they are the meat of animals or men? There is no telling of what the StormPeak might sell you they are descendants of Vikings and cannibals. Welcome to the UnEnding Agony. ~
