The City of Masks

The city of masks lies secluded in the midst of a dense forest, and can only be found through a few paths, somewhat hidden amongst the trees and undergrowth. But what is remarkable about this place is that the people wear mask whenever in public, because exposing one’s face in public is seen as vulgar and uncouth. In the city, one’s mask is a symbol of status and position, and there are a wide variety of masks for every profession. Masks produced here are obviously quite advanced, some of the more expensive masks are said to be able to stay on without straps or holsters of any kind, perhaps kept in place by some sort of magic. Interestingly, the city is also home to many of the world’s greatest singers, despite an otherwise lack of musical culture, with no instruments known to have their origins there, though some of the greatest singers in the entire world were born and even remain there.
