Thinking carefully, it's been several months since leaving Golden Palm Port, and I've been in the heart of Mulong for too long, even seeing Golden Palm Port feels extremely prosperous.
The Kelor Highlands cut off the humid Narrow Sea monsoon, causing the inland vegetation coverage to be not very high.
In contrast, Golden Palm Port remains lush and green, being one of the major ports in the Narrow Sea Golden Waters.
Due to Mulong being caught in chaos, almost all commercial trade activities are halted, making the docks appear sparse.
Local residents, due to the war, have greatly reduced their consumption levels. Though they are also Mulong people, aside from workers from the inland, not a single person has returned to support the Mulong war efforts, their sense of identity is just different.
On the surface, Golden Palm Port belongs to Mulong, but in reality, it rules its own territory and listens to directions rather than orders.
