    "The Inventor's Burrough constituted the richest part of Lhûn. Its residents being mostly parliament members and royalty." This pharagraph begs the questions: Luxia has a constitution, then? And a landed (or meritocratic only) aristocracy?

    Where it all began. All in all, I couldn't have expected for a better start.

    So, Luxia is a monarchy?

    And Lhûn was one of those cities, the royal family's presence was very thin in the area. Different from more commercially important cities, Lhûn was a bastion mainly governed by faith. And even if the royal family forcefully pressured the manifestations, it only served to strengthen the movement on other cities.

    I'm always for reading an alternate-history novel, and this one reminded me a little of "Agent of Byzantium", by Harry Turtledove, in some ways. All in all, a very solid piece of work. Looking forward to read more.

    Clever girl!

    "And the best place to do this is the building you live." Alice chipped in, complementing the captain's words.

    What about exchange rates? I mean, Luxia can't be the only sovereign nation on the planet.

    Luxia Kingdom's monetary currency was simple. Rubies are the small coins, and a hundred of them equated to one cruise; as an unemployed man but recently admitted scholar on the College of Irmwrynn, he was entitled to fifty cruises per month.

    So... Non-Euclidian architecture, then?

    The tower's architecture was very simple, just like any other in the city of Lhûn. The people of Lhûn developed a style of architecture that evolved from the Age of Carnage, as every grand structure had a few pillars on the inside and begot a meager number of windows.
