The next day, Malin originally wanted to decline Anthony's invitation to go play in the Central District of Naples, because in Malin's eyes, the streets of a big city were so crowded that the noise could kill any creature about a meter tall.
Unfortunately, as soon as Malin heard that there was an ancient relic in the Central District that still functioned, he immediately became interested—although the retirement home AI had been shut down, Malin had not forgotten about restarting it, and since there was an ancient relic here, Malin hoped he could find some clues from it.
So he followed Anthony to the Central District—well, upon arrival, he realized that this was no relic at all; it was a huge airport.
The runways had been turned into residential areas, with one even becoming a major road. Malin and his group had followed a runway to what once was the terminal—of course, the Farolians had good reason to call this place a relic—because Malin saw robots.
