The Organisational Management campus.
What was here before?
The old Newcastle Brown Ale brewery. Prime land, too – so close to the stadium.
How did they clear this land, anyway?
There was a fire, wasn’t there?
A ‘fire’. Space lasers more like. Direct energy weapons. That’s how they work.
Seriously?
They cleared it all. And bought it for a song.
So the university has direct energy weapons?
Or it knows someone who does.
it isn’t very cleared. I quite like that. It’s still … undeveloped … The way it campus just opens out into chaos. A wasteland of hillocks and stones. Where local youths hang about, looking threatening.
Can you hear a drone? Like, a distant rumbling.
They’re sending a bore down to the centre of the earth. To extract energy from the mantle, or whatever.
What could possibly go wrong?
The ambition! What they’re trying to create! At the heart of Newcastle!
It’s a front. A potemkin village.
Most of these buildings aren’t open yet.
It’s unclear what they’re for.
A lockdown ready campus.
They ready for future riots. It’s carefully planned.
