One will not always like the answers they find. The shards back home were quite different from one another to a sense, and each world their own problems...
So I am willing to listen and learn. However, if you think it best not to answer, I will respect your decision. [ It is spoken lightly, nonjudgmental. ]
...well, for starters, the City's run by a group of corporations called Wings. They hold all the power, right underneath the Head. Every one of 'em oversees a District, and inside that District is their Nest; if you can make it into one, or you're born there, then you're under that Wing's protection. But if you live outside a Nest, in the Backstreets...
The Backstreets fend for themselves. Syndicates grabbing turf and taking over, Sweepers running through every night. You can still manage to make a living out there, but in some places, you've gotta be luckier to survive.
Already it brings a sense of one's own importance dependent on where they are born.
[ There are cities, so many places like that and it brings a frown on their face. To distinguish between those who they deem "unfortunate" and "fortunate." No it isn't new but it is never a good sight. ]
