Created as part of a worldbuilding class, this project centers on two city-states bound by shared history but divided by ideology: one values technology and creation, while the other prioritizes consumption and excavation.
As both cities face resource shortages, they come under increasing pressure to adapt. Despite the animosity between their leaders, citizens from each city collaborate secretly to keep both societies functioning. This hidden cooperation creates complex relationships and tensions within each city's structure, challenging ideological divides and underscoring the resilience and interdependence of the people amidst political discord and environmental challenges.
​
This project is still in the process of being illustrated and is on indefinate hiatus, but you can read an in-progress version of the worldbuilding below.
