Geography/Description

At the second year it already had a population of roughly 50 million.<ref>Gimel has five major points of settlement, with civilization finding its foothold around these points. The City, as of yet unnamed, is the primary US point of settlement and one of the primary waypoints. The City is a megalopolis with a commonly cited population of fifty million. -Glow-worm P.6</ref> The city grew rapidly, with new stores and skyscrapers every day,<ref name="P.2e1">[A18 11:11:47] Moonsong: And your family? Your parents? I liked them when I saw them. [A18 11:12:00] Cap: alive. we’re in the city. they’re trying to come to terms with things [A18 11:12:35] Cap: things are really coming together like crazy. new skyscrapers every day, new stores. good and almost like a city in Earth Bet but it isn’t really home [A18 11:15:08] Moonsong: It isn’t. We’re in the city too. [A18 11:16:17] Cap: You and your folks? they’reokay? [A18 11:17:40] Moonsong: They’re good. Dad is taking a shot at mayor or councilman. We’ll see what happens - Glow-worm P.2</ref> so bright yellow construction equipment and the gold-tinted windows of skyscrapers dominate the skyline,<ref name="DB1.1e1">The skyline was a half-and-half mix of skyscrapers and buildings in progress. The latter were skeletons of tall buildings in the process of being filled in and put together, and hazard signs, tarps, the materials that made up the countless cranes and the painted letters on steel girders were all in bright yellows. The completed skyscrapers were paneled with mirrored or reflective glass that were tinted in that same hue. All put together, the light that bounced off of the city and reached skyward gave the clouds linings that were gold, not silver.- Daybreak 1.1</ref> despite the implications attached to that color from Gold Morning.

Streets and parks of city are filled with numerous memorial pillars, honoring lives lost during Scions rampage.<ref name="DB1.1">Daybreak 1.1</ref>

Although refugees lack a proper government,<ref>We have no authorities. We have no system of government. We have no national cape team or licensed heroes. We can’t even agree on a name for Gimel’s megalopolis!</ref> there was mention of a Mayor and city council,<ref name="P.2e1"/>, as well as functioning police force<ref name="DB1.1" />. The main part of the city had standardized rents, but not the city periphery, which was mostly farms.<ref>► Venturain Replied on August 22nd, Y1: the corner world places aren’t inherently bad tho, right? we (my family) just got into the city one month ago. right away pressure pressure. we can move into city but standardized rent and we need to earn wage and we may be asked to move. best option is to move to city periphery and farm. they say they will give us tools and resources to get started but good spots are taken or very far away and farming isn’t easy corner worlds are closer in a way. go to noon, go to wherever from there. if we aren’t reconstruction or farming we aren’t wanted. so why become cogs in the city’s machine? we can strike off on our own. minor risk but total freedom - Glow-worm P.6</ref>
