The other City
Under feets and houses, deeper even than tree roots lay the other City.
The Underground realm of the moving monster : the metro.
Fruit stalls, flower stores, posters and T-shirts sellers, musicians and painters...soda fountains...and the colorful people who walk through this world, adding a chewed-gum to the floor, taking a bit of the stations to the sunlight.
No plants dwell here, far from all light and sky. Rats, pigeons and humans have taken over.
The other City is swarming with possibilities : there is the map. You can go anywhere, choose the path you want to tread. That way or this way? This is a maze.
Arts et metier : an excellent, most classic and visited station, with its modern copper submarine atmosphere...
