Black city by elizabeth richards6/27/2023 ![]() ![]() Every city in the USS’s nine megastates has walled ghettos just like this one, keeping the humans and Darklings apart.īehind the Boundary Wall is a second, smaller wall covered in spikes and barbed wire, and beyond that. It would take you over a day to walk around the entire circumference of the wall, which encloses the Darkling ghetto known as the Legion, the largest of its kind anywhere in the United Sentry States. The wall divides the city in two, segregating the humans from the Darklings. Why do I always end up here, even when I don’t mean to? I stare up at the Boundary Wall, a stone wall over thirty feet high, covered with posters of Purian Rose urging citizens to vote for Rose’s Law. I instinctively head down City End and stop dead in my tracks. A message rolls along the bottom of the screen: His Mighty sees all sinners.Ĭhills run through my body, and I quicken my pace. They belong to Purian Rose-the spiritual leader and head of the United Sentry States. A pair of penetrating silver eyes appears on the screens. ![]()
