In the Fissure Corridor, it was dark day and night, and on the ground above, the day and night cycled in Union City, greeting a new day.
At noon, the pure and flawless azure sky revealed a huge spiral whirlpool as the sun shone down on the Lower Town. Four color bands of airflow converged and circled around the central white point.
This atmospheric spectacle, situated directly above Union City, took up about a third of the sky, making it hard for Union City's residents not to notice.
Pedestrians stopped and looked up, while the windows of the buildings were filled with Alchemy Company workers. Motorcycles stopped, and the drivers looked up at the sky. Security guards clutching Firearms for gang sects and companies stood in a daze, staring at the four-colored vortex.
Under the gazes of countless Lower Town residents, two meteors with long, trailing tails fell from the sky and landed at the Manor of the Cat Society in Sector 8.
