[k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 12] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Da Vinci I knew it had to be a helluva place from the images we captured at a distance, but seeing it in person... [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 6] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Holmes Hm, it is quite a peculiar city...if indeed a city it can be called. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Goredolf Well, what would you call it?[sr]Look how prosperous it is! [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Holmes My concern lies in whether it fulfills the[sr]functions we typically associate with cities. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Those things packed around its perimeter must be the rockets Qin Shi Huang uses to distribute the Benefactions. [k] @Da Vinci The emperor's gotta have more than[sr]enough here to cover the entire planet. [k] [charaFace F 14] @Da Vinci I guess this explains how Qin Shi Huang could rule[sr]the whole world with just this one city. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 10] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Goredolf That stadium-looking thing in the center[sr]would seem to be the city's central hub... [k] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Holmes So far as I can tell from here, there does not appear to be anything in the way of residential buildings. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash Then...does that mean nobody lives in this city? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk F] [charaFace F 0] [charaFadein F 0.1 1] @Da Vinci Hmm, that's the key question, isn't it? At least that would be what determines whether or not this is a city in the sense we usually think of them. [k] @Da Vinci Even if there are people living here, I have a suspicion it's far fewer than in our own cities. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Holmes Given that even this world's soldiers are robots, I have a hard time believing there is any particular need for a human labor force. [k] @Holmes There does seem to be a deal of activity taking place, so it is doubtful the city is totally uninhabited... [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 19] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Koyanskaya ...I think you'll find it faster to just[sr]go in and take a look for yourself. [k] @Koyanskaya Shouldn't take long for even you lot to[sr]figure out what the culture here is like. [k] [charaFace D 16] @Koyanskaya Not that they'll be opening the gate and welcoming you with open arms anytime soon, of course.

[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Holmes Indeed. These are human, not automatons. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 17] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Koyanskaya That's the royal guard of Xianyang, the elite soldiers assigned to protect the emperor even in times of peace, without ever being put to sleep in Mt. Li. [k] @Koyanskaya Oh and, just so you know... They're a far, far cry from the supervisors you fought back on that farm.
