Location
Andalusian District
Bario Santa Cruz
Bario Santa Cruz appears as a single district in the countryside near the Andalusian hacienda where the Sontarans have taken hold. The area centers on Oscar’s restaurant, Las Cadanas, a modest establishment whose exterior walls bear the whitewash of local tradition. The surrounding streets are narrow and cobbled, worn smooth by generations of townsfolk and travelers. The scent of grilled meats and garlic lingers outside, mingling with the dry evening breeze that stirs loose shutters on neighboring houses. At dusk, small lanterns flicker to life along the façades, casting amber pools of light over tables where locals linger with glasses of red wine. Despite its remote setting, the district carries the quiet bustle of those who come to eat, drink, and share news before retiring behind shuttered doors.
