$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ you find yourself in a rift - a ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ clearing, narrow but immeasurably long. ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@£@$§†~-¨¨ to your sides are walls made of trees, ¨¨-~†§$@£@
#@£@$§†~-¨ thick and ready to swallow you. the sun ¨-~†§$@£@#
@£@$§†~-¨¨ is nowhere to be seen, but nontheless ¨¨-~†§$@£@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ it is very bright - the air feels light ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ blue, almost white. ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
§†~-¨¨¨¨¨¨ along the span of the clearing lay two ¨¨¨¨¨¨-~†§
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ parallel silvery lines, dark hard ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ metal. somehow you can see how heavy ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ they are. ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@£@$§†~-¨¨ ¨¨-~†§$@£@
#@£@$§†~-¨ they emit a high pitched whine... ¨-~†§$@£@#

@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ youre at the train station, on a ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@£@$§†~-¨¨ catwalk above the rails. your train is ¨¨-~†§$@£@
#@£@$§†~-¨ late, or you are late to the train. ¨-~†§$@£@#
@£@$§†~-¨¨ it's a summer afternoon and the station ¨¨-~†§$@£@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ is busy, full of relaxed confidence. ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ you're in high spirits, although a bit ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
§†~-¨¨¨¨¨¨ stressed about the time, while moving ¨¨¨¨¨¨-~†§
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ up the stairs to your platform. the ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ station is in several levels, all ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ placed within eachother by some ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@£@$§†~-¨¨ intelligent designer, and full of ¨¨-~†§$@£@
#@£@$§†~-¨ stairs, elevators, shortcuts, ¨-~†§$@£@#
@£@$§†~-¨¨ bazaars... you sight your train through ¨¨-~†§$@£@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ some glass windows. it's... not where ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ it's supposed to be? ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@

@£@$§†~-¨¨ you're finally entering the city. while ¨¨-~†§$@£@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ it is indeed a very high speed train ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ you're traveling in, the journey has ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ been long. but it's about to end! ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
§†~-¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¨-~†§
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ society is growing denser around you, ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ through the windows you see first small ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ shacks, built of metal and stone, then ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@£@$§†~-¨¨ proper houses with mortar to keep them ¨¨-~†§$@£@
#@£@$§†~-¨ together... who in turn make way for ¨-~†§$@£@#
@£@$§†~-¨¨ the industrial buildings, the urban ¨¨-~†§$@£@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ maze, protective walls, jungle ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ network... ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
§†~-¨¨¨¨¨¨ the tracks leave the ground, which is ¨¨¨¨¨¨-~†§
$§†~-¨¨¨¨¨ needed for other purposes. you are ¨¨¨¨¨-~†§$
@$§†~-¨¨¨¨ carried gently, curving upwards until ¨¨¨¨-~†§$@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ you're moving upward along the wall of ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
@£@$§†~-¨¨ a building. it's made of slabby stone, ¨¨-~†§$@£@
#@£@$§†~-¨ with great glassless window holes ¨-~†§$@£@#
@£@$§†~-¨¨ looking out the way you came. it is ¨¨-~†§$@£@
£@$§†~-¨¨¨ pitch black inside. ¨¨¨-~†§$@£
