Yes but the palaces were built by the ancient G'nomes that were indeed slaves to the dark ones, because they were one of the best construction engineers of the world. They were also the ones who melted the five fragments of the dark orb into sporks, according to my version of history. The palaces were meant to protect the sporks and keep them secret; they were only located at 1 year before Lord Bishop's kidnapping by gnomish archaeologists, and the people of the villages thought that they were just talking nonsense. The crystal structure of the dark orb that was smashed by human rebellions was pentagonal, and that's why it divided itself into five fragments that flew a long distance because of the energy, and if their locations are lined together in a specific order, an exactly straight pentagram can be seen. _________________ Season: 3

Oh! Pick me! Pick me! I totally know!
Here's the thing: as I understood, Air City has some kind of Hobgoblin technology in it? (Unless I completely mixed up things...) Well, how about saying that the ones that built Air City is a race where the Hobgoblin sort of degenerated from?
It would be explained more or less like this in a book:
Ahem...
"Feeling the corruption fill their soul and heart, feeling that they were becoming beings they didn't wanted to be, the [Name still to be chosen] took a decision: in their last moments, they ceased all activity in the Air City, and buried it deep underground after leaving it, like bees departing from their beloved hive. It is said that the Air city still lies, waiting to be resurrected.
For their comrades that hadn't been able to bear the transformation they went through and had died from it, they built a magnificient mausoleum that would allow them eternal rest. [The catacombs]
The remaining [Name still to be chosen], sick at heart, felt the last steps of their changing come over them, and they lost their past apparence, and with it all the memories they had of their past lives, becoming creatures of the darkness.
The Hobgoblins."
What triggered the "corruption"? I'm working on that! As soon as I will have finished it, I will post it!
Then, what do you think?
Awww, not the air city, I put so much effort in doing that one already... EDIT: Hold on, are you talking about the ancient history of the air city? You can do that if you want, just please don't modify the four details that I mentioned in the previous thread.
Anyways, I'll add some ideas to your story: The Air City was resurrected 50 years before the kidnapping of Lord Bishop, when two archaeologists discovered that they had the key to activate the city. _________________ Season: 3

Okay here they are:
1. The air city orbits the earth.
2. The air city was discovered by two archaeologists on 50 B.B.B (Before Bishop's Battle) that remain trapped inside as of "today".
3. The air city was built even before the dark times, which is 1000 B.B.B
4. The air city only rose up and entered the earth's orbit on 50 B.B.B, which means that in the ancient times, it was only a ground city where they built Arcobots and other machines. _________________ Season: 3

Oh, by the way, I do rather like the name Acrobots. I actually made up some characters called "Acrobots" when I was maybe like eight years old. Younger, possibly. _________________
