Genoa Is a Sorceress

Geona is a sorceress who charms and detains you, but can give you nothing, surrounded as it is by mountains, with meager land grasses and stunted bushes twisted by the sea winds. Genoa can give you nothing, so it pushes you toward the sea, which means everything to it, from which it receives everything, and to which it gives only the services, the stubbornness, the commitment, and the talent of its finest men.
