"Yeah, probably," Jackson agrees, though he's obviously not sure what. Then again, maybe somebody already has. The discovery of the prisoners may just be the catalyst the colonies need.
The side street eventually begins sloping downward and ends in a long set of stairs leading down to the near tier of the city. This is the residential sector and it isn't too far to 'home,' though the winds are thankfully milder given the protection from the tier above. After a short walk, Jackson leads the way down another side street, this one lined with alcoved doors. The third alcove down, he unlocks the door with a scan of his hand and gently tugs Jono inside. It's something like a flat and furnished similarly to a twenty-first century home.
