[ he very much cannot imagine anything quite that esoteric, but he nods anyway. taair's excitement is infectious, after all, and chrono finds himself relaxing into the atmosphere with a smile. ]
The history of Rome is really famous. It gets studied a lot, and there's a ton of media based on it. This place is a really popular tourist destination.
[ all big and sparkly eyed at that, too, he taps a fingertip to his cheek, thoughtful. ]
It actually reminds me a bit of Lightgloam City, the place where I lived. The architecture is very similar, and so too is the structure, though I prefer it here.
[ lightgloam city is just the fantasy vatican so this is in fact extremely familiar. as for the question... he looks around, and then points over at one of the temple structures. ]
How about there? The larger structures are usually better for a first look. And if you remember anything about it, don't hesitate to tell me what you know!
he doesn't have to really ask why taair would prefer it here, though it makes him a little sad anyway. he remembered some of the histories from taair's readings, the recordings of his homeland's past. yeah, it made perfect sense why rome seemed similar.
while history is actually one of chrono's better subjects, unfortunately i, aaya, am very bad at it so we're likely to be handwaving a lot here im so sorry ]
Ah, this one's the Temple of Saturn, I think? Yeah, we can start there.

Onwards, then! Shall we? [ hehe. he offers his arm? let's walk together! we'll make an adventure of it. ]

I know the names of the bigger spots, and a little of why it's all here, but I don't know many long tales or anythin' about the architecture.
[ he'll run his free hand over flatter surfaces as they walk, moss and cold stone an appealing sensory feeling after the stickiness of candyland. ]
But you can really feel how people used to live, here. The kind of lifestyle.
