>go south
You walk about half a mile. There are now some buildings along the east side of the street, though most of them are abandoned. Broad Street To the northwest is a public building with a deep portico; to the east, one with a conical roof. The others are private houses, but, except one or two, they don't look lived in. There is a general atmosphere of neglect. The street continues south into the heart of town, or north towards the mountain and the glacier. A track for a floating train cuts southeast between the buildings. The rings in the southern sky are partly obscured by the buildings on the horizon, but are still bright enough to catch the eye. Quote:
>examine track The tracks run away between the houses, heading southeast towards southern settlements and eventually to Tanhua. They stop at the edge of Broad Street, so this must be the end of the line for any supplies or visitors being brought up from the south -- though presumably there is a larger station and a proper loading and unloading dock elsewhere. > |
