  • The ticket-master looks at you from behind the iron-grate and asks, "Where to?" And, then, "Do you have the money for your ticket?"
  • Rochester is the provincial capital of the New South Dascunya province and a city of the United Federal Kingdom of St. Samuel, with a population of 302,295, making it the most populated city in the New South Dascunya province. The city has Ingallish roots and likely owes its location to the existence of a gap in the Greenwater Hills, where the River Coldean is forded. The city grew enough in importance that by 800 BP it was the main provincial city.
  • There are multiple places named Rochester: * Rochester, Minnesota * Rochester, New York
  • In the aftermath of the War of Secession, Rochester had seen fortifications built up along its waterfront as relations between the US and Canada soured. However, because of the Economic Crash of 1863, the government hadn't had a lot of money to spend on them. In 1881, when the Second Mexican War began, the Royal Navy attacked the port city as part of its economic blockade upon the US. The shore batteries opened up, but were ineffectual, and the RN quickly destroyed most of them, before shelling the harbor into ruins. Rochester was the home of Frederick Douglass.

After their bombardment, the ships of the Royal Navy retreated and stayed anchored outside the city, but still within plain sight for the rest of the war.
