"This station allows transfer to Line 3..."
It's nearly 11 PM, yet the transfer station is still ridiculously crowded. Commuters with briefcases add a weary touch to the subway. It seems the labor laws in the Kingdom of Allstars aren't being well enforced; even during the New Year, people have to work.
However, as the subway starts moving, the chattering noise brings the subway to life again—after all, tomorrow is a holiday.
The subway leaves the mountain tunnel and glides along overhead tracks, soaring over the City. Looking at the neon-lit steel jungle, Ash feels no discomfort despite being in the cramped carriage; instead, he relaxes.
The bustle of the earth soothes the hearts of the overworked.
