The place was massive, there was no denying that. And despite her time on the Vorlon homeworld, and her service to the Vorlon Ambassador Kosh, Lyta couldn't help but to be impressed. Granted, there were parts of the ship--Stacy, as she called herself--that were unsettling, some downright terrifying, but then there were places like this, the city, that seemed to bring her some comfort. Perhaps it was the churches, the temples, many of which seemed to have been ripped right from Earth and reconstructed here. Why someone would go to the trouble to kidnap all these people, snatch them up without their consent, then only to provide them with a place they could retreat to seemed more than a little odd. Like, despite their abduction, Stacy wanted to make sure than none of them had a reason to miss church.
She didn't know how much time had passed since she'd woken up, or even how long she'd been down in the city, exploring the many buildings that lay beneath its artificial sky, but it seemed like forever. It was almost like a lifetime ago, already, even if it had been only a few hours at most. It was like time worked differently here than it did everywhere else, especially on Babylon 5.
Slowly, she meandered the streets, looking up at the large structures around here. She paused in front of some, taking time to enter a few, but always she continued on, moving aimlessly along the path. Finally, she came to a clearing, an area of grass--the only she'd seen thus far--with a large tree in the center of it. She quirked an eyebrow, stepping onto the grass to get a closer look. The tree itself was unlike any tree she'd ever seen before, on Earth or the Vorlon home world. It was shade of blue and, as she circled it, appeared to be completely symmetrical. Each side was the exact same as all the others. It was as if it had been constructed rather than grown, even though it was plain to see that it wasn't a statue at all and appeared to not only be completely natural, but living as well.
