After an hour on the road, the taxi rolled to a stop and pulled over in front of the flagship branch of Aviana Aerospace Corporation at 18 Stratosphere Avenue, Shen Plaza, in Baswil City's Business District.
The sleek multi-level building gleamed under the afternoon sun with its glass and polished steel reflecting the sharp skyline.
Inside the building, jets sparkled under soft lighting, with their sleek forms visible through the windows.
Rachel fished out some Norpondian dollars from her small blue handbag, handed them to the taxi driver, and stepped onto the pavement.
She inhaled sharply, taking in the bustle of the streets as she walked toward the entrance, weaving through businessmen, businesswomen, and wealthy individuals walking past.
The glass doors slid open beneath the shining Aviana logo and its tagline: "Innovation and Luxury in Every Takeoff."
The marble lobby stretched wide, glowing under recessed lights.
