I
followed up on my recent
interview
with Poobah, this time meeting in the offices of the
Pancreatic League. Like many of you I was curious about
the subway's progress.
Mark: When we last spoke, the first Green Line station was
nearing completion. Now the Green Line's been running for
several weeks. How's it gone?
Poobah: Really very well, thank you! The trains
are running perfectly, the ride is smooth, and folks seem
quite happy. Woo-hoo!
Mark: Are there more Green Line stations coming soon?
Poobah: Not sure about the completion dates. It really
wouldn't be so difficult to finish the entire subway grid
pretty quickly: the issue is, there's not a lot of City
yet to see above ground in many locations. So we'll be
opening additional stops as street level construction
completes.
Mark: The first Yellow Line station opened today. Which
one is it?
Poobah: Palace Station, on the Yellow Line. Goal right
now is to enable access to the three main religious
centers: the Cathedral of Light, the Palace of Night, and
the Temple of the Laughing God.

Mark: Tell us about the two neighborhoods which are
linked by these stations.
Poobah: Well, Cathedral Station is near the Cathedral of
Light. This is one of the main centers of Goodness in the
City, and as you might expect, its environs are influenced.
Near Cathedral Station you'll find several places of interest
to Good players.
Mark: And Palace Station?
Poobah: Exactly the opposite, LOL! The Palace of Night
is a center of Evil, and its neighborhood reflects that
in several ways. I'll leave it to you to explore for
yourself.
Mark: Rumor suggests that the paths to the Cathedral and the
Palace are guarded by creatures of exceptional danger. Is
this true?
Poobah: It would be extremely ill-advised for
Evil-aligned characters to approach the Cathedral, or for
Good-aligned characters to come near the Palace. I
would suggest these would be suicidal gestures, in fact,
and the characters should be restrained and, in all likelihood,
locked up for their own good. LOL!
