Arkham

The city of Arkham was bigger and more densely crowded than the one I had seen before, just when I entered the planet.

Similarly, it was much more bizarre.

Many of the brick-like buildings towered into the clouds. And this was the condition only for the central part of the city.

The city was segregated into two by a circular wall. The wall was 200m tall and 50m thick. It was a bulwark shielding the inner sanctum from the outer slums.

Yes, slums.

The inner circle was the one with the sky-high towers. Meanwhile, the outer sector was filled with dilapidated houses. They were all small houses, not higher than two floors.

While the inner sanctum was dazzling with lights, the slums were filled with bleakness and darkness. If not for the eternal sunlight, the people in the slums would have lived their whole lives in darkness.

My sister became sad at such a sight. I held her hand tighter and asked.

"Do you want to help them?"
