Middle Paradi

Middle Paradi, or Mid-Paradi for short, is mostly the production and industry center of the city, along with the mass of the populace. These people work hard for everything they have and most still dwell below the poverty line. This level is mostly blocked by the level above so the light is very low even during high noon. The big buildings block all of the ambient light for the sides of the city so closer to the middle is almost night all day long. There is an artificial lighting system built into the bottom of the plate above so that the orange glow fills people’s lives day and night, where it works. This is a good thing because the city never stops producing or working especially in the mid level. Enormous ventilation fans hum in a never-ending drone from above.

The run-off water from the heated streets above makes its way down here, causing a smell of rust to pervade this level during rainy seasons and the winter. The dirt from the snow drifting down from above turns it brown where it falls, which the residents affectionately call "shit rain".

It’s not uncommon to hear coughing from people during the winter either as being surrounded by concrete renders this level exceptionally cold as well. No one ever truly feels safe in Mid-Paradi and police sirens are constantly heard, even if they don’t ever do anything. The people are quite beaten down and almost universally in low spirits.
