- City Name: City on the Edge of Time
- Classification: Metropolis
- Location: Spectrum at the end of the Galaxy
- Affiliation: Spectrum at the end of the Galaxy
- Population: Moderate
- Demographics: Titan
- Wealth: High: Sprawling and one of the oldest civilizations at the spectrum. The city itself is full of tens of millions of people who explore, cultivate and work.
- Stability: High: THe city is one of the last standing this far into what they call the disputed expanse... the regions of space surrounding them
- Freedom & Oppression: Highly controlled by the twin rulers who rule as powerful force users protecting the city. With one in charge of the magisters... the ones who check and control industry, food production, water cleaning, health services.... and the other overseeing what would become more spiritual means of the force and training. Together they work to oversee the people and make their lives easier despite the danger of venturing into the disputed worlds.
- Description: Soft lights and massive spires of steel and stone. WIth streets where tens of thousands walk around. The City of the Night is one of the last bastions within the spectrum that has managed to survive by adapting itself and isolating itself from what came around it. WIth massive statues of past figures, with masked beings roaming around. Several gates extend from the main entrace and each one is a massive archway with thickerr doors... leading into the intertior of the city where the largest statue stands as a monument and palace.
Beacon in the Sea: The largest citadel, ancient by most standards... expansive and filled with hundreds of rooms that have been built upon each other.. with stairways that go nowhere... halls that wrap around on themselves and housing the archons.. the leaders of the city.
SECURITY
Maximum: High largely because of the difficulty in reaching it, remoteness at the edge of the spectrum itself and what many believes does not exist.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
"A bright city surrounded by the disputed worlds. Across the distant seas of stars and filled with lords and ladies so generous all packs were loaded with riches and every desire fulfilled."
That was the tale the jedi heard when after traveling through Konya... through the spectrum and finding places within that had become even there in Konya a thing of myth as it had once been seen by their ancestors... so long to the point it was more a myth. THe jedi when they found it didn't find much... the area around it was evidence of a once great civilization that met with an end... violent and dangerous. THose still living though know myth.. some of their ancient hhistories say that they found the citadel... ancient... foreboding and waiting there. The interior adjusting for them and as they built into it, remodeled and were able to find a place to survive. As things shifted outside of the city... finding their presence disruptive... bothersome and others choosing not to even acknowledge them.
That worked in their favor for years with only the area around being cut off.. the city itself remained strong... the way back to where they had come from long since lost to whatever was possibly threatening them. The leaders of the city looked to the best way to handle it appointing two rulers. It mattered little but they would be able to coordinate and work with each other... offering opposing views and perspectives. It would allow them to survive when they were approached... a being coming and offering them a truce that would allow them to live but it would open their city to things... strange creatures that could drive others mad... or creations of such beauty it blinded others. They were forced to accept as it would possibly mean destruction if they were not careful in their negotiations.
It was not a good time... the records being lost and turned more into a tale about cowards and lust... as the archons daughter was taken by the being. Eventually they were just left alone and leaving the city seemed a smaller and smaller notion. Thaat was how the jedi found them when they were exploring the spectrum itself and the further out they went from each place the stranger and stranger things became. Eventually they managed to sail through the disputed worlds... cracked, damaaged and barren worlds filled with horrors... to the gates of the city as it was like a lighthouse in the sea of darkness and stars. THey learned what they could and showed the cleared route that they had managed to make... charting a new path that would allow them to explore the disputed worlds further. A whole new avenue opened up for them.
The few years that the jedi explored and maanaged to work with the people of the city were beneficial. They learned a few things about more ancient mysteries and from the city they could see the force net. A megastructure that connected the galaxies and could be learned about from the archives. The rift and everything else that was used to learn the methods of stellar engineering.... or how best to travel faster then most engines would allow them to see. The jedi bringing what information they had from the island nation they had discovered and deeper within the spectrum the barrier... the stories about how this city was once considered the beacon of civilization. The jedi researchers would be abel to use the city to explore more discovering the sea of origin as well as more.
