buildings, towers  in  the  "golden   
  bay" (everything made of sandstone).  
    five  particular  houses  fourty    
  stories tall, hundred meters  apart,  
    in   a   slight   arc   inwards.    
                                        
  between two mountains; to the right   
  and  left the city  climbs quickly.   
  the right plateau  hosts  a lush and  
  shaded  garden which morphs into  a   
   terrace overlooking  the  sea  and   
             the    buildings.          
                                        
   to   the  left  the  houses  climb   
  similarly  but a lot of tunnels and   
   halls  have  been   dug  from  the   
   mountain.   some   houses   stand    
  completely "inside". because of cave  
   conditions the  lower floors  here   
  are  covered in  dark algae that the  
   city  long ago  stopped  trying to   
   remove.  establishments  use  neon   
   signs  as  an  accent  to the dark.  
          there's   a  casino.          
     there's   an    internet cafe.     
                                        
   most people living  here have long   
  snouts and  big  ears. all space  is  
   shared  (few  rooms have  locks  or  
  even  doors).  interior  design  is   
    mostly   art nouveau   and   made   
          out     of    copper.
