章 315: City of Wonders

The city Kir and Kordia walked out into was not much different from the one Kir first saw three years ago... that is until one looked to the distance of the outer districts. 

Where once a virtual shantytown stood, now there were rows of wide streets, thanks to the massive apartment blocks that dominated the sky, each one ten stories and crowned with gardens that provided free vegetables to their blocks. Their sides were finished in a style Kir knew as Art Nouveau, but which the city had decided to call the "Norneau School." His hope was that Norneau would not lose sight of nature as it expanded.

Kordia was the pioneer of the style once Kir got the core concepts across to her. Because she still had school to attend and wanted a life besides, she'd left the actual creations up to the Creations Guild, and they'd quickly raised up their own artists to copy the style once Lumin and the Mayor weighed in.
