Oxy City hasn't really changed much since Oxy took it over. The buildings and outfits that people wear are more or less the same.

What's different is the technology: In just over a decade, the city-state has gone from an anachronistically bronze age society to a modern one. Cars aren't much in use, but the Gold Mines that, under Solitus, were operated under unsafe conditions by slaves are now worked primarily by modern digging equipment and workers with protection beyond what would be mandatory in a first-world nation.

Farmers use modern techniques and equipment, and while Jade can't really see this, most of the buildings have been renovated to have indoor plumbing and, whenever possible, electricity and climate control.

All of the gold statues of Solitus are gone, having been melted down to make better us of the gold, and replaced with smaller, more modest stone statues of Oxy in various forms and ages.

Oxy comes up to Jade and hands her the Queensjade letter.

"Well, we've got a cult that thinks that you ruling the world is an acceptable alternative to democracy and bunch of bastards who want to rule the world becuase they're strong making a bunch of excuses for why they wouldn't be tyrants hoarding power for themselves. I'll let you decide how to deal with your worshipers, but I really think that these 'New Nobles' will need to be stamped out sooner, rather than later, if they can't be convinced to stop."
