The West River flows through the center of the city, and West Island in the middle of the river is also the source of the city's name.
West Island is not large, but it is a fortress that has existed for thousands of years, easy to defend and hard to attack.
It used to be a refuge for monarchs throughout the ages.
Although not many monarchs were truly sheltered by the West Palace, the strong defensive system still led many rulers to hide here in fear.
Marco despised these monarchs.
In his view, no castle can protect a decaying feudal lord.
He once thought he would never hide in a turtle shell until someone stormed the presidential residence.
He truly realized that he could die, be overthrown, and even no longer represent progress, all his pride vanished into thin air.
He no longer lived in the presidential residence but moved into the West Palace.
This place favored by former monarchs as a sanctuary.
Also where the last Emperor was dragged out and sent to the guillotine.
