The Pannonian sea is gone, only cornfields remain. The people from afar reached the fields and raised their banners high, to show the path to their brethren from afar, leaving for the promised world. The landscapes of the evening sky over the plain depict the inner landscapes of endless wastelands, lonely people, tamed lands, peaceful rivers, common coexistence.
