"Ah, sorry. I keep forgetting you don't have the same points of reference as me. Midgar is built in two halves, a lower city on the plain - it used to be the main city, but now it's wreckage and slums. Above that is the huge metal plate that divides the upper and lower cities, and on top of the plate is the upper city. Both halves are divided into eight sectors, and each sector has it's own reactor. And you're right, the reactors are basically power plants, but they run off the energy of the planet rather than being coal-fired like the older ones were. The damage was in the billions, and they killed a number of people in the upper city as well, but I agree, nothing merits that price. But the President had a temper, and I had my orders." He sighed as he looked down at his feet.
