Galactic Field Trips, Monday
Lana nodded as people showed up, and began once they were all at Portalocity. "Today we'll be visiting the other main capital of the galaxy, Coruscant. Coruscant is the seat of the Galactic Republic, and houses the Senate, which will be our first stop. Coruscant is the name of both the city and the planet, because the entire planet is the city. It reaches thousands of stories into the air, and the lower levels, from what I understand, are all but abandoned except for mechanical infrastructure."
You thought Kaas City was bad? Vials of Coruscanti soil are sold as luxury goods. All the trees here are holos.
"After that, we'll again have a bit of an aerial tour before you can use the taxis to revisit any area that strikes your fancy."
She grimaced. "I would recommend sticking to the main lines and the tourist areas. Some of the places you can end up otherwise are less savoury."
She led them through the portal and into a plaza with a fountain looking out over expensive buildings and some of the main traffic lanes. When they turned around, the plaza opened up on the front of the Senate building, beings of all species wandering, talking, dealing, and bickering.
They headed across the plaza and through opulent corridors to the main hall of the Senate, then upstairs and into gallery seating to watch the current session. Which was mostly more beings of all species bickering. Or trying not to fall asleep.
After a bit of that, there was the promised taxi tour (the taxi was actually enclosed) around and through some of the local buildings and areas. And then Lana would be sitting in a cantina doing work while the rest of you did what you wanted until it was time to return.
