## 1 | Start

You stand at the edge of Lively City's neon-drenched commercial district. Towering corporate skyscrapers loom above while augmented citizens hustle past. Holographic ads flicker, casting multicolored shadows on rain-slicked streets. Where to?



## 2 | Walk the street

You move through the bustling crowd. Street vendors hawk cybernetic upgrades from steaming carts. A group of corporate suits brush past, escorted by private security. Nearby, a street performer manipulates holographic butterflies with augmented fingers.



## 3 | Walk the street until you find something funny

Ahead, a crowd gathers, laughing. A malfunctioning billboard projects a corporate CEO's face onto a street vendor's robo-dog. The dog prances around, barking corporate slogans in the executive's voice while the desperate vendor tries to catch it.



## 4 | Even more bizarre

Around the corner, you spot a rogue cleaning droid spraying passers-by with iridescent foam. Three corporate mascots—a neon tiger, holographic rabbit, and augmented penguin—desperately chase it, slipping and tumbling in the technicolor mess.



## 5 | Walk to some rooftop bar

You find an exterior elevator, ride it 130 floors up. "*SkyLine*" bar stretches before you—hovering drink-bots, holographic menus, clientele ranging from corporate elites to chrome-enhanced street fashionistas. The city sprawls below like a circuit board of light.



## 6 | Looks nice

"*First time at SkyLine?*" asks a bartender with optical implants that shimmer like diamonds. The breeze carries synthetic cherry blossoms across the deck. A corporate negotiation happens at one table, while underground musicians share drinks at another.
