Oakstone City

Nestled into a pocket on the right side of the Wetstone River lies Oakstone City, a magnificent city carved almost entirely from stone. The rocks gleam all colors of the rainbow, and in many places in the town stones gathered from the river and even ones rumored to have fallen from space are on display, set up in lovely arrangements.

Part of the city is covered by an overhang, while the other half, closest to the river, is open to the sky. Residents say this pocket was formed by the river when it was young, and that is very believable; the walls are smooth, with horizontal indentations chiseled in from the slicing power of the water. The section covered by the overhang is illuminated by stones embedded in the ceiling and floors, which emit a soft glow.

In the very back of the city, there is a long ascending stone staircase carved into a hallway, spiraling upwards. You need to traverse this great ascent-- 763 steps-- to reach the next leg of your journey, Sol Ridge. The entire staircase was made by hand with the aid of pokemon, and is illuminated by the same stones that light the darkened half of the city.

Oakstone City is an architectural wonder-- and certainly worth the pain and risk of arriving there.
