Dusk has settled, with the moon quietly climbing over the high walls of the Imperial City.
The majestic Imperial City, bathed in a frosty white moonlight, exudes grandeur.
Red walls and green tiles, the towering perimeter walls, with roads laid out like a chessboard—under the moonlight, all were transformed into a tessellation of black and white light and shadow.
A procession of carriages dedicated to the preparations for the Dragon Pulling Test in a few days was en route to the Imperial City Training Ground.
Leading the carriages was a robust captain of the Imperial City Guard. Upon reaching the training ground, he strode back and forth, shouting orders, directing the miscellaneous Imperial City workers to unload the supplies from the carriages.
"In a few days, the Dragon Pulling Test will commence. Move the Dragon Pillars into place, and be careful not to startle the giant dragons. Even ten heads would not suffice to compensate for that."
