The advantage of the cannon, is that takes you to places that you would never dream of going by foot. I don't know where I am, or if I like it or not, but it fascinates me, and holds me captive. And besides, I've got someone selling wonderful enchanters' trinkets beside me, so I've got company.

I'm sitting on what seems like the battlements of a huge wall. The panorama is...impossible to describe, but I can try:

To the west stretches a long, wide sheet of pale yellow - the whole, entire desert, stretched out before me like the sheet of a bed, ready to be crinkled up and wrinkled from a sleeping body. The mountains are only tiny little lumps in the distance, as if I could reach out and pick them up one by one.

To the east...to the east is absolute horror. It is a twisted, ebony land that is filled with demons and large growths. The terrible creatures try to climb this large, wide wall, but they cannot. My perch seems to be an area of safety.

Then, right against the horizon, I see a large range of mountains, further away from the horrible, ebony land. But they're even tinier and further away, like tiny little broken pieces of rock.

And now I twist around to look towards the southeast, towards the large, glittering ocean. I swear I see a beautiful, white city - shining and glimmering in Sunrifter's light, but maybe the distance is playing tricks on my eyes. I can't help but wonder that, if it is real, what it is and where it is and if I can get to it.

To the south, the battlements have collapsed. I don't know what caused it, but I can sort of make out a crater that may have been caused by a meteor. I'm glad that the battlements on the east haven't been broken down. If they were...I wouldn't be safe up here, would I?

Then there's a door to the north. A very nice lady who I recall was called Edenn chatted with me for a bit and tried to see if it was open before slipping off. It wasn't, and I feel slightly curious as to what is behind that object. Maybe some other day...

But the name, Edenn, brings back thoughts of Seph. I wish he could see this with me - he might have already done so - and sit with me so that together we could look upon this stretch of many different lands put together.
