The Institute
The Institute, roughly half the size of Cerebrum which it is orbited by, is split into two categories and then a further fourteen subcategories, all based on the concept and traditional schooling of Trivium Quadrivium. It floats, like all of the cities on Mergha, in order to keep itself from damage. There is a constant whistle and hum in the background of this building.
Purpose / Function
The only school in all of The New Terran Societies, The Insitute is where all newly created Neo Terrans go for their education in recent history and in their specific fields—fields in which they tested into and chose back on Earth, although that doesn't prevent one from changing their specific field or interests in perpetuity. A person cannot leave the Institute unless they gain their degree for their minimal education and their history courses.
Although it is mainly filled with these new Children, many Adults, or graduates, of the school also come back to the Institute to learn new skills and trades after they clear another stage of life. When Adults go back into their learning, they regain the designation of Child until they’ve completed that track of schooling.
Alterations
Like Cerebrum, it was intended to be underwater, and so has a similar barrier of broken glass at its edge. However, these pieces are more degraded and smaller in size because of the Institute taking the material and recycling it.
Architecture
The Institute is a education establishment, with many different styles and accents to it. It is a conglomeration of the different arts and sciences, and almost each subject has a few buildings unique and style to it, set in districts. Art Majors have decorated their buildings, painted murals, etc., and made them extravagant. Science Majors have slick, clean lines and streamlined architecture. Artificial plants are set in specific areas.
The various buildings of this school rest upon a circular platform with a large, almost volcano structure in the center. From it’s center shoots a large bolt of purple energy, connecting it to the building above. There is also a hole in the middle of the institute, filled with heavy metals. Inside of that hole is the Institute’s gravitational and magnetic core, artificially created through machines lined along the inside center. It allows Cerebrum to orbit the Institute in defense; a priority to a society that values education and knowledge above all else.
