Father, what are those lights?

That is the city of the Goyanim. They are a strange people. They light their
cities at night, as if the stars weren't sufficient for their needs. They
fight and kill eachother, not realising the greater danger beyond their
small world. And they do not hunt eachother with bows and arrows. No, they
have strange devices that kill from far away without arrows. And take care
near their strange iron horses they use to travel. They travel faster than
any natural beast ought to, and ignore the strength of the bow and arrow.
Best if you avoid their cities, my son.

Father, whats a city?
