Help. Wasn't this topic straying a little too far? He could understand the first part, but he was completely lost in the second. Why did he need to speculate about how this hidden land came to be inside a city? Wasn't that just unfair to an elf?
"Actually, for elves, this kind of thing is pretty normal," Illiya said with a bit of resignation. "In elven territories, even in the most prosperous towns, there's always a purposely cleared space somewhere. So I really can't guess. What, is it that amazing to see an empty patch of land nowadays?"
"Don't tell me it's like how elves leave open space to grow plants themselves?" Illiya joked. "As far as I know, among humans, only commoners grow their own crops, right? Anyone above that class hires someone to do it."
