Throughout 2023 I took part in #City23 (a variant of #Dungeon23 ) and created The Goblin City with a new entry for each day.
I was thinking of taking a break this year, but I enjoyed that project and so decided to continue building the city for another 366 days with #Lore24.

CW: City23 - Day 365 - The Mystery Line
One train line departs from The Commons Station and follows a magically determined route through the city that is never the same, with tracks and stations appearing just minutes ahead of the train. While impractical for commutes, the train cars for this line are never empty, with adventure seekers riding to either enjoy surprises out the window or step out the door at a strange spot.
