——— Founding of the City, New Kowloon Walled City
120 years after the glaciers completely melted.
Upon an oceanic reef in the middle of the sea,
flashing with red and blue neon lights,
stands the massive vertical city, the New Kowloon Walled City.
Through endless acid rain, sea fog, and smog,
the foundation of the city and the ocean grow increasingly polluted.
Borders and laws no longer hold any meaning.
