was There was a huge, high-arched gate leading into the city, with a sign hanging overhead that read "Coral City: Welcome to our humble abode. Please don't litter." There was no way I was going to enter the city, especially since the only thing I knew about it was the sign. I kept walking south, passing a few small houses and some empty fields. Without any landmarks to guide me, I had no choice but to continue walking until I reached the edge of the forest. As I climbed higher, I realized that Coral City was located inside a huge dome, surrounded by enormous cliffs on all sides. To my surprise, there were several smaller domes scattered around it, each clearly marked with a different color of paint. I walked further south until I reached the edge of a cliff with a drop of at least three hundred meters. Below me, I could see the ocean stretching out for miles and miles. I looked up and saw that the outer edges of the dome were covered in grass, a few trees, and even some wildflowers. After another five minutes, I reached a small dirt road leading east. Not wanting to wander around blindly, I decided to follow it back to the city and see if I could find any other people there.
*** The first person I encountered was a young girl carrying a basket full of fruit and vegetables. She stopped when she noticed me, smiled and greeted me in a friendly manner before continuing on her way. I followed her down the road for a short distance before turning off towards a small house with a wide front porch. I knocked on the door but got no response. So I went around the back and found a large garden with a colorful array of plants and flowers. It must've taken the owner a lot of work to maintain it. I sat down on the porch steps and admired its beauty while I waited for someone to answer the door. After fifteen minutes, I gave up and headed back to the main road. After a short walk, I came to another intersection. The sign there read "Gateway to Coral City: 1 Kilometer".
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
I continued south and walked along the road for another ten minutes before reaching another sign that directed me to a large rock formation. It was shaped like a small hill surrounded by three walls. Since there was no other way to reach it, I followed the road until it ended at a roundabout. I turned left and headed towards a small square with several buildings surrounding it. One of these was an old-fashioned market, complete with a large clock tower marking the time. I had no idea where to go next,
As I stepped inside the building, I noticed a large crowd gathered around a man dressed in a white lab coat. He was clinging to a clipboard and talking to a group of people. When he noticed me, he hurriedly walked over to me. "Excuse me, can you assist me?" I asked politely. "I'm looking for the entrance to Coral City." "
Thank you for asking," the man answered, smiling. "Please come with me."
