☆ ULTIMA HIGH SCHOOL
The main school building itself is much like your typical high school, with the compulsory on-campus residence turning it into a rather odd but interesting mix of a public school and a boarding school. It covers a very large area and consists of a few hundred classrooms, laboratories, lecture theatres, and offices over (7) floors, which are accessible via stairs, escalators, or elevators. The main hallways are lined with pure white, double-sized, full-length lockers, with drinking fountains and assorted vending machines scattered throughout.
Surrounding the main building are vast, meticulously trimmed fields set up for various sporting and extracurricular purposes, as well as a tree-lined area on the east side with picnic tables dedicated to students wishing to eat lunch, do their homework, or simply relax outside in the sun. A white cobblestone pathway lavishly accompanied by water fountains and exotic flora leads from the northeast corner of the school towards the dormitories, not further than a moderate two- or three-minute walk away.
The architecture of the main and residence buildings is modern with a few classic touches, taking on everything from elaborate archways to skylights, and composed mostly of white marble and Tyndall Stone.

☆ RADIANT GARDEN, DESTINY ISLANDS
Radiant Garden, the host city of Ultima High School, is situated on the southernmost island in an archipelago named Destiny Islands, a fair ways off the western coast of Canada and under the jurisdiction of the province of British Columbia. Destiny Islands is very similar in topography and climate to its sister archipelago further south, and as such, is often referred to by non-residents as the "Canadian Hawaii."
The city, which is around 5km north of the school, is typically accessible via car, train*, or the long, scenic bicycle path that runs all over the island, including towards the main beach on the south side.
* Fri-Sun: Radiant Garden Express is free of charge to students of Ultima High School. Student ID is required. Mon-Thu: Standard student fare applies.
