Quivira

"People need to come to their senses, this is not Quivira.", Mr Chas.

"What?", Biddy, Breezy, and Happy.

"One of the seven cities of gold, the Spanish looked for, Cibolla, El Dorado...", the Fed?.

Liz looks over at him briefly, and asks, "What else?"

"About 1150 CE, seven bishops fleeing the Moors from Merida Spain went West, to as yet undiscovered lands and each bishop built a city.. Wealthy lands, fabulously so, such that the cities themselves were built of gold and adorned with jewels... This was the tale told, to the credulous, anyway. So kings and governors over the years sent searchers out...

"Never with any concrete results and yet the stories grew up around it,: "It was a near thing, sire, we could see it but not come to it, Satan himself barred our way." They looked for it in Florida, then up through places with names like Llano Estacado -the staked plains and Jornado del Muerte -journey of the deadman. They even looked around in what one day would be known as Kansas...", Fed?"

"Many reports of it , but nothing real? Correct?", Liz.

"That’s right. So I suppose., to give the devil his due, it still could be out there.."

"SEE!" , Biddy, Breezy and Happy.

Liz said, "You’re not helping.", and thought, ‘I was getting to like you, maybe I still am.’ and thought again, with and inner snort, ‘better start packing’. .:.:.:.
