Riding the Serpent's Back
“The Garden of Statues To many, the city of Totenang was second only to Tule in importance and grandeur: its Embodied temples and colleges were only marginally less important than those of Tule, whilst in terms of architecture and culture, it could even be argued that Totenang led its larger counterpart.

The Lai was filled from the northern sea through a gap in the Rim mountains; in turn it spilled over into the Hamadryad river and the lesser lakes.MoreLess
