    Hey Chashio, sorry i haven't responded earlier, i'm still feeling a bit dizzy from drooling over these "little bits of progress" . It's truly awesome what you're doing over here! Your district has this wonderful "naturally grown" urban flair to it. Regarding the main road between our districts you asked about in my thread, i think directly underneath flows a river to the lake, so we could think about doing something with it? Btw. The little dragon looks really cool! I'd love to see it too if she/he has some kind of impact on the district (although my folks won't dare to cross the street until they now more about the dragon's diet ). I think this cute fellow would make a nice "centre" to spin the story of your district and its buildings around.

    Edit: Oh, just realized you have a new name for your district now ... hmm sounds familiar, haven't we been neighbours in good peace for ages back in the far west?

    In all seriousness this is very cool. I love the very long building you have put in and the way your city just seems to flow naturally around the streets. Great job so far
    "Haha, no, no we wouldn't. But dragons are generally not so rude as that. Perhaps if they catch a cold and sneeze, which has happened in the past I will admit... burned down whole rows of buildings when the dragon population in the city caught a bad bug from somewhere. But such is a rare occurrence nowadays. Cleaner streets. Better medical facilities and whatnot. And, well, dragons just tend to sleep a lot, so there's very little risk of them just passing by."

    Thanks Tonnichiwa! This city building stuff is all very new to me and the feedback is heartening.

    Thanks Abu!
    Yes, there is the river under the road... but I'm not sure what to do with it besides maybe some more greenery and perhaps interesting fountains or wells for drinking water for travelers?
    There should be some stuff with dragons in here, yep. Still evolving and whatnot. Originally I had in mind to draw charred rubble around the place if this all didn't go so well. Now I'm not sure.
