After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 620

Oh, yes, of course.

This topic made the Elders and aborigines look awkwardly at each other. Some had names in their minds, while others had no idea what to suggest at all.

"I prefer if we could name them straightforwardly." ƒreewebɳovel.com

"I agree. Maybe we can have something for people to know it’s Altera’s."

"Do we add ’Altera’ somewhere?"

"Like, what, Altera Mountain Village?"

"Too long."

"Does the system even have word count limitations in naming?"

"I think something cooler like Rocky Mountains is better."

"No, I think…"

And so on…

Anyway, naming something so important—Altera’s first satellite—would inevitably cause a couple of disagreements. Hence, they decided to choose the new name… by draw lots.

Well, kind of.

They decided to pick by drawing lots wherein everyone there could suggest what they wanted.

If it was picked, everyone could vote on whether it was acceptable or not. At the same time, no one would really disagree if the option wasn’t too bad. After all, the people who suggested the name were in the same room.

Basically, unless the answer was a troll answer, then whichever was picked first would likely be the endgame.

Mathilda gathered the papers and picked one, with a few people confident in their naming sense hoping to get picked.

After all, it’d be an honor to name Altera’s first satellite! What kind of bragging rights would they have during drinking sessions?! It was an honor they could brag about for generations!

Mathilda opened the paper and flinched, but voiced out the contents in the end. "Limestone Valley?"

"Could’ve been cooler like my Ascension Valley," Ansel said, making Eugene roll his eyes.

"Limestone Valley, eh?" some asked, wondering who suggested it.

"A little simplistic, but functional," Althea said, as if explaining, and they immediately knew whose idea this was.

Althea had a vision of merging territories only if it had major resources, so naming them after their main resource would make things straightforward. Anyway, there was no need to hide what the territory could offer—anyone who could get to the village would know what it could offer.

In any case, seeing as it was Althea’s choice and it wasn’t too bad of a choice, no one strongly disagreed with the new name.

And so: Fargo’s new name was decided just like that.

If Fargo knew how his name was ’desecrated’ would he have an aneurysm?

Anyway, the discussion continued about the other token that they had. It was Mathilda who opened up the topic. "What about Bright Village?"

"We can only integrate 3 territories at most. Using it on Bright is a waste."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

If Micheal was here, he’d feel very complicated.

But, it made things easier for him so—even if he knew how he was being discussed—he would be thankful for it.
