Our journey has become strangely quiet. We are in a veritable no man’s land and, from what we can see, only opening and closing of portals in the walls surrounding The City. The movement is silent, quiet, and fast as lightning. But what is it about this place that makes us cringe? We cannot see what is coming in or going out from the portals. Neither do we know the reasons for their movement. Is the exodus good or bad for The City?
