Aquarian Club

Aquarian Club – Both conversation and music were muted, and both had an elegant lilt. Tables were packed together as was the norm, but they were arranged to provide circular traffic patterns that reminded Eve of the symbol at the base of Alice's note (a dark line running in an expanding circle to form a maze; it was Celtic, Earth labyrinth).^[1]

Ringing the walls were mirrors fashioned into the shapes of stars and moons. Each held a burning candle, a white pillar, that reflected light and flame. Between each mirror were plaques of symbols and figures she didn't recognize. The small dance floor was circular as well, as was the bar where patrons sat on stools that depicted signs of the zodiac.^[2] There was no band or holographic image of one. Instead, the music seemed to come from nowhere and everywhere. Windy flutes and plucked strings, a soothing female voice that sang with impossible sweetness in a language Eve didn't recognize.^[3] Alice Lingstrom ordered a Golden Sun.^[4]
