-Pyllia, also known as the Cosmic Crossroads, is a [[nation:chorus]] territory made of sprawling, disconnected cityscapes and towers overlooking incredible vistas. It is a neutral meeting place for all nations and shards within the Calliope sector. The Chorus themselves are rarely seen and offer use of Pyllia to any who wish to use it with little oversight.

 All Gates can connect to Pyllia, making it a natural meeting place for all space-faring civilizations. Pyllia's own Gate is situated at the center of the territory, with space vessels of all kind coming and going constantly at all times.

+Pyllia is a sprawling, system-wide metropolis of magic, technology, and divinity. It has been the meeting point for civilizations old and new alike.
 The traces of those old civilizations are largely present in the architecture of the buildings they left behind, which are always well-maintained. The islands and structures are impervious to harm or tampering beyond the sorts of minor changes that are appropriate for a new occupant settling in. Few secrets can be discovered beyond their architecture and those hoping to make a breakthrough by using ancient knowledge are typically disappointed.

 In general, Pyllia is what its residents and visitors make of it. If it would be interesting to find, you likely can. If you wanted to separate an operation of your own, you could. So long as you can afford it, Pyllia has what you're looking for.
+=== The Dawn Gate ===
+At the heart of Pyllia is the Dawn Gate, an immense tower. The base of the tower is built around a Gate Terminal, allowing ships from across the sector to come and go. The tower stretches far above the gate and is the location of most of Pyllia's central administration offices and diplomatic chambers.

 Pyllia has no true natives. It does, however, have Stewards. Stewards are humanoid entities that wear beautiful hooded cloaks of white, purple, and gold. What different species see within those hoods varies - humans see a human head, for example. Stewards are helpful neutral entities who seem able to speak all languages. They can provide directions or general information about Pyllia itself.

 Pyllia has no culture of its own and is instead a melting pot of the cultures that inhabit it. Its (relatively) safe environment, the price of remaining within its territory, and the awe-inspiring views of the territory itself inspire a certain type of living. On the surface, Pyllia can often seem like an idyllic place to live and carry out business. Out of the public eye, an abundance of shady business is run by Pyllia's less than savory residents.

 Optional. How is this location run? Does it have one person in charge or many? How do they organize? Are there any political tensions?
-Pyllia is run by the [[nation:chorus]], though they are surprisingly hands off. They make use of Pyllia in a manner largely the same as any of the other civilizations throughout Calliope. They happily off themselves as a neutral mediating party to any who want their services for a modest fee.

 As with resident fees, civilizations or individuals wishing to claim part of Pyllia for their own use are expected to pay a rental fee for the territory. The fee is high enough to prevent any one group from buying up more territory than they reasonably need, yet low enough to not make doing so a burden. The specifics of the fees vary based on who is buying them and enforce the "just high enough, but not too high" suspiciously well.
