The citadel

Katsoja Primus Citadel is an enormous citadel built right at the centre of Katsoja Primus. It is most likely that the citadel was built first, and the city was built around it.

Design

It is made mainly of black obsidian. It is around one hundred and fifty metres tall, and therefore the tallest building in the city. It is shaped roughly like a cone, but has a gently sloping base, then a vertical section, before the steeper, larger, top section, which ends as a point.

There are three external walkways at various points of the citadel. The second one, about one hundred metres up, is by far the largest and widest. It has many facilities, including a mini-theatre.

The citadel is also armed. About twenty-five metres up is a ring of mounted automatic machine guns that goes right round the citadel. There are also small viewing slits to allow the firers to know what they are shooting. The top of the citadel is in fact an enormous ground-to-air cannon. It uses a large scale, powerful firing system to launch a ten-metre projectile into the air at incredible speeds. The projectiles explode on impact.

The citadel walls are around one metre thick, and most of one floor is used up containing an enormous generator that creates a repulsor field around the whole building.
