Colorful pendants, billboards, and banners crisscross a sickly green sky. At the bottom of the screen, text reads, “He found some new work managing social media accounts for alien colonists.” The upper left corner indicates the name of the neighborhood, “So-Tep Slums,” and the upper right corner includes a navigation map.

At the animal’s belly, a flag of the same green cloth bears an embroidered design of a dog that appears to be either mid-gallop or hogtied.
