🌃 TIME TO CHOOSE All week we've been telling you about the four powers of your city. Now you know them.

Lucía Esparza — blood, name, and the long table. The princess who became a queen. Caesar — the streets, respect, and his own till the end. The voice the streets follow. Zoe Kashin — cold, calculation, and the city in her hand. The one who clings to nothing. Pyotr Dovlatov — silence, the question, and a truth no one comes back from.

Four powers. Four paths. One city — and tomorrow, it gets carved up for real. Blood? Respect? Calculation? Truth? The choice is yours. Season starts tomorrow at 19:00 (GMT+3).

🌃 TWO HOURS UNTIL THE SNAPSHOT The city goes quiet. The final frame is closing in. Holders — the season is coming to an end. In two hours, everything locks in for good: the rankings, the population, your positions. Everything you built, minted, and fought for through sleepless nights — becomes history. And what a hell of a history it is. Thank you for this season. For never letting up, not for a single day. For the builds that never stopped growing, for the rankings that got rewritten ten times a night, for showing up at every event right down to the wire. You did this. ❤️ What's next — a short pause. And then a new season. New in every sense of the word. Stay tuned to our channels so you don't miss a single announcement. Over in the special zones, the lights are still on. Drop by the little house with the quest: play a round of Minipoly. Bring friends — voice chat's right there. A solid way to ride out these last few hours. With love, The CITY Holder Team 🤍 See you in the next season 🎮

🌃 COAST GROVE Night. Rain drumming on the rooftops, the neon of the Corner Store bleeding into the wet asphalt. A car pulls up outside the shop on the corner. Four men. A near-routine call — some punk kids figured they'd knock over a spot under their protection. One of the four looks at the storefront longer than the rest. He remembers when he was one of those kids himself — fifteen years ago, in this same neighborhood. ⸻ He was fourteen when his mother fell ill. The insurance ran out before the sickness did. He wanted to save her — and he was ready to do anything. That same night he talked his way into tagging along with the older boys. A warehouse in the next district over, after sacks of "unmarked goods." Getting in was easy enough, but they were spotted before long. The older ones bolted first. He didn't make it out in time. When they took him down, he yanked out the kitchen knife he'd grabbed in a hurry the night before. A hopeless gesture — one that only egged the warehouse men on. They tied him up and sat him on a chair. Laid the knife in front of him, on a crate. ⸻ In the morning, a man came. Sat down across from him. Stayed silent a long while. Looked at him like he was deciding something the boy no longer had any part in. Then he picked up the kitchen knife and snapped it apart with his bare hands. Pressed the handle back into the boy's palm. On his way out, he said just one thing: "Come find me, if you want to." A package was already waiting at the boy's home. More money than the treatment even needed. They knew. ⸻ The car outside the Corner Store cuts its engine. The four step out into the rain. The one who lingered on the storefront adjusts the cord around his neck. On the cord — a wooden handle with no blade, hanging beside a gold chain. He walks in first.

📈 AETHER IO LANDS 90% OF THE CITY'S CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS Nine out of ten building tenders this past quarter went to a single player. Analysts say it's the first time anything like this has happened. On paper, it's all clean. Bids filed on time, competitive pricing, paperwork in order. There's nothing to pin on AETHER IO. Off the record, competitors are calling it "impossible." Three mid-sized developers who lost three tenders in a row to AETHER IO have all declared bankruptcy in the past month. Coincidence? Maybe. But the coincidences are starting to pile up suspiciously fast. Then there's the question of what's actually been built. On the books: dozens of projects completed and paid for. At the addresses: empty lots, half-finished shells, sometimes nothing at all. The corporation's response is that "construction is proceeding on schedule." Behind all of it, one name. Zoe Kashin. CEO, 28. Gives no interviews, makes no appearances, issues no statements. Little is known about her. Everything is known about her results. AETHER IO doesn't build for the city anymore. AETHER IO is the city. We'll keep you posted.

🔴 TROUBLE IN COAST GROVE Police are losing control of the district A unit rolled into Coast Grove this morning — just a routine patrol check. By midday, there was nothing "routine" left. A car burning at the entrance, storefronts smashed in, streets barricaded. Residents poured out and refuse to go home, while the cops crouch behind the hoods of their cruisers. The active phase is over. But it ended strangely. The police aren't trying to enter the district anymore. At all. The cars have pulled out, patrols circle the "perimeter," and the precinct won't comment. Coast Grove is looking more and more like a state within a state. And this state has its own president. Everyone we spoke to on the streets repeats the same name — Caesar. Around here, everybody knows him. This is where he grew up, this is where he's respected. And judging by today, nobody else is needed to keep order here. Coast Grove plays by its own rules now. And when something happens in the district — nobody dials 911. We'll keep you posted.
