Imagine coming back 500 years. The place we're standing now was in the middle of a village full of life and energy. People lived here in wooden houses with a trapeze roof, burning fires in the gardens. People here used to enjoy swimming and fishing. There were also three bastions that protected the village from dangerous invaders.
Who lived here? They were peasants, craftsmen and merchants. They were all trying to make and sell their goods so they could eat and live. A lot of kids like you lived here at the time. They were playing kick horse and throwing a rock in the water.
