What's that?
*Steps off the elevator once we get to ground level, onto a cobblestone mainway*
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>
*The roads are full of people wearing a variety of clothing, from rags to top hats and monocles, some outfitted with brown leather vests and gloves, and many accessories with mechanical appearances, with one stand-out trait being a clear class divide between residents*
This part is at least a little more safe.
*The buildings are outfitted with winding brass staircases and twisting, enormous gears, and laced with notched pipes possessing color-coded stripes at each joint*
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>
*We pass several floors of the garage until daylight peeks out from the top of the lift*
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>
You pick up what not to touch pretty quickly.
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Hops in*
It's pretty dangerous though.
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>
Yep. Just don't trip.
*The next one slows when it nears our floor and the top of the lift peeks out*
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>
*When we reach the inset holes, a small lift moves up on one side and a few moments later another moves down on the other*
Get ready.
<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Taps the pipes on the other car*

*Walks toward a set of rectangle cutouts in the bronze wall*
