Salafa, the Nation in the Vast Desert

Its streets, lined with buildings of white and sand-colored stone, are always bustling with travelers and merchants from distant lands.

Day Voices calling out to customers and haggling over prices fill the air, and the streets are packed with the heat of the crowd and the desert sun. Caravans with camels often enter the city, and porters and guides move busily about. Night Lanterns line the streets, and barkers shout to lure travelers toward wine, food, and dance. Laughter, music, and the calls of touts blend together, spreading a different kind of liveliness throughout the city.

In this country, the flow of people never ceases, day or night. Desert travelers, merchants, entertainers, and dancers. A diverse array of people gather, and a noisy yet glamorous time flows by.

The Dancers Ecru and Guest

In this country, it is normal for dancers to perform alone, but these two are a rare presence who always stand on stage together.

The Veils Worn by Dancers

In this city, it is rare for a dancer to show their mouth. This is because showing one's true face is said to be permitted only to one's most precious, beloved partner.
