{{Variant table|Condition = Hinterland City - Official Alignment|Condition alias = Alignment|Effect = Description|Compact = yes
|Value Liberationist = 
|Value Radical Liberationist = There are no street-lamps and no candles. Thick canopies overhead black out even the feeble light of the false-stars. One navigates instead by scent and sound and the varying sensation of the pavements underfoot.
|Value Liberationist-Prehistoricist = There are all sorts of creatures in the street, black-scaled and lamp-eyed: defenders of the walls, and fierce against any soldier or constable who might come from outside. Towards the local citizens, they are meek as rabbits.
|Value Prehistoricist = The work of street-sweeping is not considered suitable for humans: bred to this cause instead is a spined bullfrog {{...}} With every leap, it gathers {{...}} rubbish and paper on its quills. It is out of sight before you can see how it cleans itself again.
|Value Radical Prehistoricist = The gate of the city is ringed with teeth; emblazoned overhead is {{...}} a snapped chain. {{...}} far more creatures than human beings, and many of the humans are no longer {{...}} as they were at birth. Laboratories are as common as costermongers, {{...}}
|Value Prehistoricist-Emancipationist = Humans work side-by-side with the caretaker monsters of the city; a girl with a taper is seeing to the lamps on one side of the street, but her colleague on the other side has the neck of a giraffe and a breath like a lit sparkler.
|Value Emancipationist = At the street corner is a public cupboard, stocked with spare rations {{...}} It contains {{...}} incorruptible biscuits. The real wealth of the city is distributed in a more organised fashion: every household has a claim to the share of the harvest and proceeds.
|Value Radical Emancipationist = The city is very practically arranged, with plenty of street lights, and storehouses for common goods. Laboratories are discouraged, however, and {{...}} esoteric sciences are frowned upon. No mucking about with bones here! as one bit of graffiti has it.
|Value Emancipationist-Liberationist = The city prides itself on the sanctuary that it offers refugees, whether these are criminals or Clay Men escaping unpleasant owners, or curious newcomers from further away. A dormitory by the city gate provides them with temporary shelter{{...}}
|Value Anti-Liberationist = The city is brightly lit, and in some places, a figure of the sun is inscribed. Darkness is not <i>prohibited</i> - this is not Varchas - but the citizens are keen to distinguish themselves from any form of liberationist approach.
|Value Anti-Prehistoricist = Every kind of job is performed by humans in rotation, and the subjugation of pets is discouraged. {{...}} backlash against Prehistoricism means that even {{...}} a trained ferret or a raven may provoke a warning about forcing other creatures to perform our work.
|Value Anti-Emancipationist = Signs here and there in the city suggest that people without ideology are not welcome here: Liberationists and Prehistoricists each have their visions of the city, but no one tolerates a milksop.
|Value Mixed = The political arguments on-going before the foundation of the city have not entirely ceased: the relative merits of emancipationism and prehistoricism – not to mention the dark of liberation – are debated in graffiti form.
|Value Balanced = Different neighbourhoods [...] lean a little more in this direction or in that: a Liberationist [...] keeps the southern [...] in shadow, while the northeast [...] more laboratories [...]. The citizens plainly derive some satisfaction from the balance of their views, however.
|Value Complacently Unrevolutionary = Some people say it feels just like London now. That is incorrect, of course. The city has nothing like London's vibrancy, its size, its ambition. No, it feels more like a fallen Tunbridge Wells.

The sight leaves you unsettled. Even when there is no one on the streets, the city is watching you. It sees every place you go.
