Evensong was a flat piece of metal, fifty miles long, with buildings on both the top and bottom. The area on the top is called '''Topside'''. It was surrounded by a bubble of air, and ESG generators (Element-specific gravity generators) give it gravity, while fusion generators also help to make it habitable. Many of Evensong's skyrises and towers were linked by walkways. It was the frontier of humanity's conquest in space. But despite how futuristic and advanced it is, it still had slums. The slums have drying clothes and ragged drapes hung from the buildings and pedestrians walking more than in other areas. [[Orson Ansed]] feels the area has a sense of despair to it.
