Alkimisták és álmodozók városa volt, középkori macskakövein gólemek, misztikusok, hódító hadseregek jártak egykor.

Barokk kupolák antik reze zöldellt lágyan, és gótikus tutornyok nyúltak az égbe, hogy felnyársalják a bukott angyalokat. A szél mágia, hegeduk emlékét sodorta, és a macskaköves utcák úgy kanyarogtak, mint megannyi patak. Mozart-parókás banditák kamarazenét játszottak az utcasarkokon, és az ablakokból marionettek lógtak, amelyektol az egész város egyetlen, nagy bábszínháznak tetszett, láthatatlan bábosokkal a bársony mögött. Mindennek fölébe tornyosult a kastély a dombteton, körvonalai élesek voltak, mint a tövisek. éjszaka reflektorfényben fürdött, kísértetiesen."
