[3H] — SECTOR 3
The Burnout
Overview
A district named for what happened to its idealism. Pre-Cascade, this was the counterculture's last stronghold — communes, collectives, and communities that believed the world could be organized differently. The Cascade proved them right, just not in the way they hoped. Now the murals peel, the community gardens grow stimulant herbs instead of vegetables, and the squatter collectives have hardened into territorial micro-factions. The architecture remembers a time when people painted their houses in protest. The paint is fading.
