~ Opening Greeting: Welcome to the City ~
Welcome to Night City, stranger. See you're new to these parts. Allow me to show you around. That building over there, the tallest building is the Nightly News building. Over there is the Montgomery Concert Hall. Other fine entertainment establishments are The Kaliedoscape Cocktail Bar, Clocktower Park, The River Bend, The Andrew Loyd Art Gallery and for the 'dark and goth', there's The Cathedral.
If you're sick and wounded, there's St. Vincent's Medical Hospital, Mercy Medical and the Alchemilla Medical Center.
There's a wide variety of residentials. The largest residential house in Night City is The Court Manor in the richest part of town. It’s abandoned now, but it used to belong to one of the former ‘Deputies’.I'll tell you about them.
We also got rules here, ya know. For one, only the police and the "Deputies" are allowed to carry firearms. I know that questioning look, son. There's a difference between the police and the Deputies. The police enforce the laws, and the Deputies enforce 'HER’ laws. There used to be three Deputies in Night City. Now there’s only one, and she’s run herself ragged since the others left.
Secondly; you won't see many places to worship here. That's because She doesn't care for organized religion, and it's hell to get anything. She says she comes from a higher authority, and treats libraries and cemeteries as sacred. Vandalize those and you get dead.
And lastly; I can see you're one of them there spell-flingers. You might want to get your ass over to the Kaliedoscape and say hello to the proprietor. Trust me, son. You REALLY WANT TO say hello to the proprietor. You know that 'She' I keep mentioning? That 'She' is Coraline. She isn't some two-bit crime boss, son. Oh no. Even the thugs in Night City say "SIR, YESSIR!" to Coraline, and it’s not because she’s a snappy dresser. All newcoming supernaturals announce themselves to Coraline no matter what. Or they'll find Night City a cold, cruel place.
There's a saying here in Night City. "The fine line between Paradise and Perdition is drawn by a phoenix tail." You laugh now, son, but you'll soon find out how true that is. In some cases, many find that out the hard way.
At any rate; Welcome to Night City. Wear a helmet.
