Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Navale Mercato is the economic hub of the Aquatic Chain. This is a town that grew out of a "farmer's" market, and now is the #1 spot to buy all sorts of fish, seaweed, and other ocean items. Many make a living out of the beautiful jewelry made of coral, shells, and gems found on the ocean floor. Others sell their farmed goods, such as Trout, Oysters, and Seaweed. The region is also well known for the Oyster Farms nearby, where the bulk of pearls are harvested and oysters are raised to be sold.

Due to the proximity to almost all of the lands, many people come in and out of this town. For that reason, all borders have checkposts up, and there is a guard station within the marketplace. There is also a tower/fort near the oyster farms, built there by request of the farmers themselves.

The city is underwater surrounded by a giant bubble of air, so anyone can visit it if they can reach it first.

Alice rose from the ground coughing, "Ugh I hate this body, I have to breathe." The girl sighed and began to walk the streets, searching for the reason why she was drawn here.

Both of the brothers winced when they realised they would have to go underwater. Neither one of them were capable of dealing with high pressure, so they would really be hoping and praying the bubbles would work. "Well, here goes nothing." Moriarty shrugged, and the two brothers took a deep and calming breath.

Artemis smiled. So she hadn't worn a swim suit for no reason. She grabbed her beads and got ready to follow Lus. "Ready when you are." She said, but tried to straighten her face when she was how bummed they were. She hoped it wouldn't be too tough on them.

Alice glanced around the town, "No sign of Kiro yet... I may want to buy some clothes so I fit in." The girl skipped to the nearest tailor and bought blue and white clothes, complete with shoes. "Ew... shoes." she muttered silently as she changed.

Artemis dived in after them. She had no idea how to get past the gaurds, but breathing was slowly getting easier. She swimed closer when she saw Lus motion to the entrance and guessed that she wanted her to go first. She went above the entrance, curving herself with the bubble without actually touching it and waited for a large group to walk through. Large as in tall people or people who were quite close to the top of the entrance, but numbers did help. A few yards away, there was a group of tall guys, about twenty of them. When she saw them enter, she quickly flipped around the top rim into the bubble and floated above the entrance for a moment before floating down to the floor and waiting for the others to arrive.
((Some of Phaeton's earth people are trying to take the Hillocks of Olynthis or whatever it's called from air. Just thought I'd let ya'll know.))

As they slid into the city, the the two brothers heaved a huge sigh of relief. Moriarty looked around him, as if already searching for mischief to cause, and Kat looked cautiously back at Illusion, his silent eyes asking if the coast was clear. Moriarty took two ginger steps forward into the city, but stood there to wait for Illusion to lead the way. The hearts of both brothers were still pounding intensely- the fear of death was very real - but Moriarty was much better at suppressing it than Kat.

Kiro sat down at one of the town squares. One of four. This city used to be three close cities. When they grew, they connected, and after weeks of warring over city limits, The Royals named it as one... and here it is. The three main streets were where most of the battling has happened, and the sand still shows traces of red among it, and that is also were everyone shops, as that is the main thorough way...

He leaned back and relaxed. He left his armor at the guard post he entered, and entered with what he was wearing last night, his "civvies" clothing. A royal blue shirt and grey pants with leather sandals. It was all they had at the guard post in his size, and he didn't mind. He looked up and ran a hand through his hair, and let out a big sigh of relief.
