Wide-leafed ferns, sprouting seedlings, grasses as soft as silk, and nameless flowers in all colors of the rainbow and then some lined the winding wide paths in between buildings. All the while, the constant choir of a lively forest rung in their ears with its unending euphony made up of the buzzing of oversized insects, the chirping of crickets and birds, and the gurgle of brooks snaking their way through the jungle. If one were to crane their neck to look straight up, the would notice the majority of the spires disappearing as soon as they passed the canopy, like pillars that supported the inside of a castle.
