savethecityoocHello everyone!
I wanted to make a list of locations of Hiyoku (the town where STC takes place) for others to use as reference. I'll be making a map later. Here's a few you should keep in mind:
Ryuseki High: The highschool most characters attend. It is located south and to the center of town, and has a regular/human subway station. The school, while abysmally underfunded, is strangely famous for its high university entry rate (bordering on 95%). A sub-location in the school is the old school building.
The West Park: A small park located to the west of Ryuseki High. There is an aged bear statue in the middle of the park square.
The West Parking Lot: A large parking lot, built within the year before the game events start near the west park, and over the old western shrine.
Nishi Kinjo: A neighborhood set further west from the school. Geographically slopes downwards towards Hiyoku Forest. Middle to lower class apartments and houses populate this area.
Hiyoku Forest: A forest that spans west, southwest and south of town.
The Flaming Phoenix Mall: Also known as an offensively colorful mega-shopping center that cuts through the south of town. It doubles as a train station and regular subway station. It replaced an old shrine and now is the go-to place for youngsters and adults alike who want to throw away some money. It is surrounded by colorful brand shops.
Festival Grounds: These old festival grounds have been repurposed into a park that's a little north of the mall.
The old shopping district: North of Nishi Kinjo. A row of old businesses that are roughly 30 years old. The stores are still current, but sell antiques and low priced goods. They line the way to the Scarlet Road.
Scarlet Road: A long boulevard illuminated by lanterns and surrounded by stores, love hotels and businesses of somewhat ill repute. It's full of street performers and artists, and tends to be a bit less wholesome towards the southernmost end, whereas it's northernmost, while more family-friendly, is a bit more modern and artificial.
Northside BusinessesThe High Rises - Apartments and manors that cover the north and north east end of town. Middle to upper class people live here.
Kochi Jinja Park - A park located east of town. There's a botanical garden here, and a greenhouse. The park is more lush than the west park, but most of its deeper and entertaining locations (such as the gardens) have fares for visitors, making it less amiable for the public.
Kochi Jinja Research Center - A set of laboratories focusing on environmental research that replaced the eastmost shrine of the city.
Ivory Needle - A five star hotel that peeks over the hills that build towards the top of town. It provides the best view of the city. The top of the tower boasts the Hanging Gardens, a restaurant and tourist attraction.
The Radio Tower - An immense radio tower that overlooks the hills north of town. Most people have a memory that it was built within the year.
Remember:
Locations in the city can be added as a lot of them are "hidden" from human visitors but can be accessed by youkai subway.
