With every stroll she would look upward at the skyscrapers that loomed overhead. Observing them with intrigue on what was inside, those without windows were to be studied on their shape, size, width or the materials that they were made up of. Large quanities of Kalli's time was spent on understanding the people around her, listening to the chatter and bicker, standing out like a sore thumb as she walked all adorned in some military uniform that was more than unfitting. It seemed impossible to adapt to such a sudden change, the only place she found civilization to be, for safety to be, was filled with people nothing alike to her, she was left strolling in confusion as the sunlight rained on her feathers and claws.
A see-through wall of information shimmered in the light, suddenly appearing in front of Kalli while others stared at it as well- a holographic map of the so called "Tier One". The surrounding area perfectly mapped for all of the passing civilians, Kalli left staring at it baffled before looking at others as they spoke and moved along. As they left, she looked back up at the holographic board in silence, the voices distant and alike to the floating cars and their engines, adding to the sea of background noise. She tapped the hologram name, "Tier One", the hologram suddenly covered itself with another large rectangular board, with others tiers listed. Out of curiousity, Kalli clicked "Tier 2", the map suddenly shifting and spinning, revealing a small lift. Red lights flickered from the lift on the map all the way back to where the map was, leaving her to look beyond the hologram, seeing the yellow handles of the lift in the distance as civilians carried down boxes covered in metal.
Taking a few steps back, she soon began moving again around the hologram, jogging toward the lift and her claws clacking against the ground. As soon as she was aboard, a small wall lifted up at the entrance of the lift, and it proceeded to go downward, shaking as it started up.
"What is that?" She could hear the whispers next to her, two workers looking with curious and at the same time, suspicious, judging eyes. "Somethin' new, probably as bad as those Tier 3 refugees flooding in for jobs...Lets move before we catch a disease from it." The lift suddenly stopped, opening up and revealing a street, the buildings still raised high with the sun of the sky above. "Sun? Here? But this is underground..." She walked out onto the street looking up, baffled by the environment before her. Floating cars dotted the sky above like flies as they went back and forth, forming entire lines of vehicles above, as if the sky itself had roads. The skyscrapers hummed with the sound of voices, commercials displayed on them, job offers, clothing, food, all sorts of things to buy for the people walking and running about below and above. Quickly lifting up her claws, Kalli kept moving, inclined to forget the confusion of The Nexus and understand this world...This "Coruscant".
