A Pile of Memories

Cities are dirty. The nooks and crannies of forgotten structures, built over generations, those remain; but, the passions that built them fade until someone sees them again. Cities are not the future. They are merely a rest stop.

Yes, cities have resources. Yes, there are opportunities not present outside of cities. But, what attracts people to cities are what has happened in the past. It’s the memory of someone achieving an easier life that draws other people to the cities.

To put it simply, Cities are a pile of memories which happen to have attached themselves to a place. Over time, memories fade into lore. Or dissapear altogether.

Nothing is permanent.

The only reason any city exists is because of the will of Mankind. Without that, cities fall into patterns of decay and regrowth, the unstoppable cycle of nature reclaiming it’s place.
