Description summary:
The first paragraph varies based on the city's Founding Body. An additional sentence may appear, depending on if you have .

Founding Body	First Paragraph
Furnace Ancona Furnace Ancona, Starved	There are already grain stores and mushroom stores and other units throughout the city, but they are too widely spaced. Every neighbourhood ought to have its own; no one should have to walk too far to collect their rations.
Cornelius	The hatching-ground is as broad as an amphitheatre, with a central space for the eggs to be kept and warmed, and galleries for the citizens to view [...] Then, too, one needs kennels for the new hatchlings, and peligin lamps to encourage their development.
Your Own Double	A city needs to drink, and this one, unlike London, did not come with its own pilfered river. The Creditor is well-supplied with aquifers, but there is still […] getting the water to the top of the city, and sending it out to the fountains and baths.
The Double of the Manager of the Royal Beth	The wounded in body and […] mind both need care, and they will find it here. It is not this city's nature to deny such patients what they need.

Style	Stone
None First City	blue-veined marble
Bethlehem	crimson marble
