JOURNEY TOWARDS THE SARDAR

FROM HELMUT TO HARFAX

I had taken a break, stopping in the village of Helmutsport on the northern coast of the Thassa. During my stay, I produced various writings, as well as numerous sketches and maps of the area and the route leading to Besnit—a path that passes through Harfax. I had heard of this small town, nestled at the foothills of the Sardar Mountains to the

northeast, and sheltered to the north by the Great Northern Forest.

My friend Rikki had sent me the location of the town—which she had recently visited—adding it to the canoe route. Consequently, I organized a caravan and set off along the rugged trail used by pilgrims heading toward the Sanctuary

 

Upon my arrival, I was welcomed by Lady Rosetta, who guided me through the town’s streets, pointing out its finest features: rows of attractive homes for the residents and inns for visitors. After reviewing my credentials as an editor for the *Gazette of the Moons*, as well as my official pass as a Magistrate, she summoned the town’s owner lady Ahdrina, who as it turned out, was her own daughter.

My stay in that small yet lovely town was brief; Turmus was expecting me, and I did not want to miss the autumn fair. I took my leave of the ladies, promising that I would return as soon as I possibly could.

While traveling to Turmus to set up my stall for the Autumn Fair, I decided to stop at Ko Ro Ba—Lady Odette had invited me to visit, so I made a detour to see it.

I arrived during a quiet moment, while people were busy at work, which allowed me to explore at my own pace and create some sketches—I’ve included them below.

It is truly worth a visit; there are beautiful paintings depicting the planet Gor, displayed throughout the rooms of four buildings arranged in a circle. The site also features expansive gardens filled with trees and flowers. I took my time looking around, focusing on the intricate details and the scenes captured in the paintings. Afterward, I continued on to Turmus, where the fair is still underway—I’ll share more about the fair once it concludes.

Thank you to all my readers.
