Terras walked down the subterranian streets of Von Braun aimlessly. Though Terras had been born here in this city, and had never been able to travel abroad; he knew that a city built underground was highly unusual. Because the lunar surface was mostly just a morass of dirt and other loose debris created by a heavy series of asteroid impacts, Von Braun's living quarters were built very deep underground. No human-made material could withstand a direct asteroid impact, so the city's only real defense was subterrainian construction.

The only real problem with Von Braun Terras had was how nearly everything was the same boring color: white. Not pristine hospital whitewash, but a more somber and pale white color. Everything was like that here - the buildings, the streets, the lunar surface - everything looked just like everything else. Granted, the city planners did wonderful things with landscaping, lighting, etc., etc... but there was only so much that could be done to hide the dull sameness that prevailed the city.

From the precisely measured and planned streets which connected the city underneath, to the heavy cargo elevators that connected the subterranian blocks to the above-ground facilities nestled up high on the surface - Von Braun was totally symmetrical. It was inescapeable, much like the city was. Of course, that wasn't being totally fair to the city. It was a great place to live... but to live here you had to accept a leasiurely pace of life, and Terras was honestly beginning to grow restless.

Although the wars were long past, the growing troubles with the Preventers was beginning to worry many people. Few had thought that the rebellion was serious but recruitment efforts on behalf of the Imperium military forces were beginning to increase, leading many to whisper that a war was starting. Few in Von Braun had engaged in such conversations, the people holding faith that their city would stay Neutral in the present war. None of them wanted to be involved in the fighting, but Terras couldn't stop thinking about the innocents who were being put at risk as the conflict continued to escalate.

Terras didn't have much time to think it over though. Rounding a corner on Union Street, he turned into a mobile wall packed with people heading for the Number 3 service elevator. This was the most annoying part of the trip from his high school to the place he worked - Junior Engineering Technologies. Moving shoulder to shoulder with hundreds of other people trying to get about their lives was maddening at this time of day. Terras did not care to be so packed into a group of people.

Especially since, with her usual bad timing, Celvice chose this moment to call him on his cell phone.
