Rest assured Caitlin, it’s not your age. She’ll hear him calling everyone ma’am soon enough.
“For an underground city, this place is a lot bigger than I originally thought.” Steve grins as he leads her out the doors. Caitlin will notice that the landscape doesn't change much, and they haven't actually gone outdoors. Instead, they're in a large, septic white complex. "Welcome to the Technical Services Section," he says. "This is where cloning and medical services take place. This also happens to be where the automobile garages are."
If she has questions at anytime, he’s happy to answer them as they come up. In between questions and as they walk, Steve explains Alpha's geography. The northern edge is the Armed Services Sector, which houses Alpha's armory, training facilities and military. In the eastern edge is Research and Development. And to the south is the Power Services sector, which houses the machinery that keeps the Complex running.
Which brings Steve to the last main building of interest.
“But the Wagon Wheel is at the center of it all. That’s where we’re headed now. It's where most of us live and where your room will be. The Computer has probably already assigned you a job. Tomorrow morning, you’ll find out what that is."
By the time he's done, they've walked down one of the main halls and out onto what actually feels like a street. Though if Caitlin looks up and pays close enough attention, she'll be able to tell that the night sky isn't quite real.
"Subsectors like this are between each of the main sectors. Come, we'll walk this way."
The street is a lot busier and there are a lot more people here in the evening. It feels a lot like New York or Hong Kong with how much bustle is going on. Bright lights are flashing off buildings, advertising Bouncy Bubble Beverages.
