First City | The Manager […] has lived a long time […] known many cities […]
So, though it is new, the refuge built of his substance seems millennia old. […] Most of all, it is built as a place of refuge and hospitality […] The most recognisable buildings are all communal […] |
Bethlehem | The Manager […] knew many shapes of fear and dread, and the city knows them too. Eyes look up from the cracks between cobblestones. A smell of rotted meat rises from the basements. […] No one will choose to attack the city and claim it for themselves […] |
School of Beatrice | There are few long vistas in the city […] The streets are terraced […] That much draws on Beatrice’s vision […] The Manager has made it a place of refuge […] The most recognisable buildings are dormitories and refectories, hospitals and houses of mental refuge. |
Porous | This is a city like a wasp's nest: the houses nestled together in cells, their walls papery […] Just here and there […] is […] some token of Cornelius' greater vision: a bronze replica of a mammoth skeleton; a painting of the ancestors of Rubbery Men […] |
Ivory | This is a city that envisions many non-human inhabitants. The streets […] wide enough to accommodate a mammoth […]
[…] murals depict the history of the Neath […] […] Hillchanger Tower […] as an animate building bent down to shake hands with a giant tomb-colonist. |
Attenuated | The streets are terraced […] the buildings assembled from lofts and mezzanines. They are buttressed like a gothic cathedral, stretched and tall – as if something of the Starved Men had appealed to Furnace, and reshaped her in her last human days. |
Remembered | Everywhere you look is something born from your own thoughts. […] This sill is arched […] like the brow of someone dear to you. But this is not Parabola. […] not your own dream-place. Other people live here. […] someone […] sings your mother's favourite lullabye. |
True Beatrice | There are few long vistas […] few places that recommend themselves as a seat of power. The streets are terraced at many levels, the buildings assembled from lofts and mezzanines. To walk through the city is to encounter one cozy courtyard after another […] |
