I Think It Was A Tuesday...

The story of Future Cities

(literal photo-realistic presentation of what Lady in the Bushes saw)

-One day, our Lady in the Bushes looked up at the glimmering and dusky sky. She grabbed a cloud and some clay and went straight to work.

First ever SHARD*

-the first SHARD was produced in seconds. -Within a few hours the Bushes Land Reserve, a fairly narrow flatland between twin mountain ranges, was completely covered in SHARD after SHARD.

-Ants gathering nesting materials were the first to grab one. And once a few SHARD were gathered into a pile, breathtaking prisms of ozone and light swept the entire area as the small SHARD collection bored into the ground, transforming into a WOW terrestrial palace. -every now and then, The Lady in the Bushes would craft a melody in the open, shoveling SHARD after SHARD to each side of her, clearing a path.

Magnificent spires owing to Escher and dreams sprung up all along this one way street of chrysoberyl-encased shale suspended in crystal.

First ever Cities Scene

-These wonders were visible from any point of the mountain range. Individuals from every which manner descended upon what would soon no longer be Bushes Land Reserve, having heard promises of needing no body in these so called "Future Cities" and rumors of ownership for any light ball that successfully creates a Cities Scene. -One's essential nature is clearly visible at all times in Future Cities. Lady in the Bushes prepared for any number of light balls to frolic, collect and build to their contentment. After a while, unaccounted for visitors with unaccounted for appetites; the industrious Dust Giants and the like followed our light balls to Future Cities. -The Dust Giants promise to claim every available space in Future Cities and turn both sides of the mountain range into 1 Art Gallery, displaying the most gauche and expensive crafts imaginable and closing every day at 4PM UTC. Lady in the Bushes decided that Future Cities needed a little...

order. -Space depleted quickly. As Future Cities grew at a potentially unsustainable pace, Lady in the Bushes decided to regulate the development of these incredible Cities Scenes to ensure the proper use of the remaining space. -Using her 1/1 SHARD Brand Any Vac, Lady in the Bushes hoarded every remaining SHARD on Crystal Street. She began to be very careful about exactly which and just how many SHARD were crafted and/or released at any given time. -Her motive was practical enough; nothing scares her more than the potential loss of her beloved bushes! -These days you can barely come across a normal Berylink Shard without time and location degree-specific coordinates and enough patience to know that the work will be rewarded. This increased difficulty ended up discouraging visitors, who again travelled far and wide to be among the very first citizens of Future Cities. -That's when the Office of Future Cities Tourism was created. -We, the Office of Future Cities Tourism, are tasked with saying a very unnatural phrase. Also, we must reverse that 2021 Tourism Crisis!
