The gates of the Agora open onto a broad courtyard, perfectly square and thirty meters on a side, flanked on both the left and right by the regal white marble columns of twin stoae. A blue sky stretches above the open space of the courtyard, illuminated by a yellow-white star. The atmosphere and gravity give a near perfect impression of being on the surface of Gallente Prime somewhere in the mid-tropical zones, not unlike the environs of Caille. From some distance your ears catch the cry of sea birds and the soft noise of waves crashing gently on sandy shores.
Within the courtyard many dozens of avatars mingle in small groups, conversing in low voices or listening with wrapt attention as some opinionated speaker gesticulates his point on a matter that has come before the assembly. Opposite the gate, a broad archway leads to the antechamber of the circular Isegoriterion, the main meeting area where several thousand avatars may gather for large debates and presentations. Adjoining the courtyard via the covered stoae are many smaller chambers, such as the Kartografion, a lounge whose centerpiece is a giant holographic star chart and wherein visitors are encouraged to unwind and relate to one another in a less political environment.
A visually pleasing holo-overlay folds into view and informs you of the following: The management kindly requests that all visitors refrain from uncivil behavior while on the grounds of the Agora. Thank you and have a nice day.
