This is a lower, darker sector of the city, a place of looming industrial and storage facilities. Scattered among these buildings are low-tier boarding houses, as well as an assortment of bars, brothels, and cheap eateries. Because it is near to the port district, there is a fair amont of activity here in the daytime, with all the coming and going of the adjaicent sectors.

The change in environment calmed Casper somewhat, though his thoughts are still in overdrive trying to figure out the whats, wheres, hows and whys that flood his mind.

His running turned to a fast walk as he absorbs information about his new environment.


You take in your surroundings, and realise that night is falling rapidly, as martian nights do: Neon signs are flickering on in the windows of bars and hotels, and the industrial facilities are closing for the night.

Meanwhile, the pedestrian traffic, which at first was sparse, has become nonexistant, adding a seedy mien to the street.

He came to a stop on a sidewalk near a pedestrian crosswalk. unconsciously he began rubbing his right shoulder with his left hand. Somehow, a piece of him is missing.

He walked over to the crosswalk, absolutely unsure of what he's doing at the moment. The only thing he knows is he has to keep moving for action calms him. He looked right, left and started to cross the road.

Your shoulder seems strangely dead to the touch, but at the same time, incredibly strong... It's movement seems stif, as though musclebound.

After you cross, the glaring light of a bar catches your eye. From beond the half-door, you can see the smokey interior, and a large, muscular doorman stands beside the door, eyeing you suspisciously (but a little curiously, you notice).

[Note, you are still wearing your lab-issue robes, they look a bit, ah, singular] ;)

"'scuse me" Casper inquired, "think I'm lost, could ya tell me wha's this place?" He's still touching his shoulder, the thing that's supposed to be connected to it was gone. He also just realized that he's wearing weird clothing. Weird because its different from everybody else that he'd seen down here. "Wow, I'm a one-armed freak!" He thought.

"In or out", the doorman says curtly, sceptically taking in your singular appearance.

"Huh? In or Out? Is this a code or something?" He thought as he decided on what to reply. "IN!" He replied to the doorman, "I think?!"

"Alright, in you go". He motions through the open door then holds out his hand and coughs meaningfully.

"Uhh?" Casper raised his only hand, he's about to ask the man a question but decided against it. "Thanks." He finally said. He figured there'd be more people to ask inside. And on the plus side, he may get a good meal as he was still uncertain when was the last time his body tasted real food.

He walked in, again his left hand on his right shoulder.
