This is called a photograph. This is exactly what it looked like, at least at the minute they took this. Kind of like a memory you can hold. It was a lot for me the first time I saw it in person too. This one here is where I lived, called The Inferno. This line across the street, with the circles, that's actually water, the Bellagio fountains. They're lit from beneath and there's a show, like they dance, every half-hour. Sometimes I would sit on the balcony and just watch 'em for a few hours. During the day, it's not this nice. You can't see the lights in the sun. But this is what it looks like at night.

She's gotten used to living in this magical medieval world, but she misses electricity and cameras and all the other trappings of the modern world. ] You probably are one of the only ones who woulda liked it. Shit, if you were from my world, you'd probably have a daily show at Harrah's. And the food. Jaskier, I swear, y'all don't even know what you don't have.
