Nightlifers – On The Horizon – Page 3

We are back with Nightlifers – “On The Horizon” page three. This time we see things grow more complicated as Tito’s fathers stumble into the attempted water theft. What is a son to do?

This page was written by Deft Beck, illustrated by Footfoxxy (NSFW Twitter), and colored by me.

Be sure to check out last week’s Cosmic Dash update if you missed it. That was page number 380 for the record.

Cosmic Dash update #380 - not water theft

Water Theft

In the last update, I wrote a bit about the ongoing water crisis on Blassna, which is more noticeable to some than others. Mostly you are in the know based on how affected you are by water rationing and the ongoing drought. For most citizens, that line can be drawn whether you live in the canyon or above the canyon that the city was built around and within.

The lower city, built into the canyon and among the oldest places of civilization of Blassna, can also be the most dangerous part of the Imperial City. Gangs and crime run rampant in the shade of the city’s lower area, and most of the money and programs to beautify and help the city tend to be routed to the upper sections of Southtown, Uptown, and the Lake District. As far as the roughest places in the city go, you’re looking at The Drag and The Narrows, and Nicor’s Noodles just happens to be in The Drag, which is one of the oldest districts of the common folk.

This map should help.
