There are many things about the ancient site which are amazing, and the most amazing is the fact that it was built at all. It is a four day trek from the nearest settlement and is perched on a mountaintop.
Humans are a curious bunch, and I can easily see a hunter or explorer finding the place. But then whatever possessed them to actually build a city there. Was it something along the of 'Cousin Bob is always asking to borrow my mattock. If I move here, the lazy bastard will not come this far to borrow it.'. Or was it more for the view?
Anyway I see the place slowly grow into a hamlet or small town. Then one day the king says 'I need to get away for a little bit.'
And Cousin Bob then says 'Hey, my cousin Tom has a place Nobody else goes near'
And the next thing Tom knows his hideaway is now a Royal Getaway.
Damn Royals.
