There was a huge mass of people milling about and I followed their general direction until I got to a flat expanse of cobbled floor. They were in the progress of demolishing the entire city. I asked what was going on and someone said that our city couldn’t be invaded if there was no city in the first place. Apparently they were inspired by an old folk tale. I assumed it was some kind of international conflict because they also mentioned that the Japanese were the only ones willing to provide refuge.
