Chase, though, cared about none of that. His eyes and his thoughts were focused on the slow, precise shifting of the green-gray glass on one side of the building. Many of the arcology's windows contained special light collectors that channeled sunlight into the deeper, almost city-like reaches of the building, and then out the far side to illuminate the part of the city that would otherwise have been in the arcology's literal shadow. From that side it was impossible to look at the building, and Chase often wondered if many of Seattle's citizens had picked up the habit of averting their eyes out of almost religious awe. For Seattle, the arcology and her owner, Renraku Computer Systems, were a kind of economic god.
