Description summary:
An extra passage is added to the first paragraph based on City's Style, and the second paragraph varies based on the city's Chosen Site.

StyleFirst Paragraph

Remembered, AuroralThe city may be your double, but that doesn't mean it always approves of you, any more than the mirror does.
Chosen SiteSecond Paragraph
EalingEven the Rubbery counterpoint doesn't ruin it.
EvenlodeUnder the last verse you can hear the keening of the barrows, a desolate wind-tune that only makes the rest of the song jollier: the way a hearthfire is warmest when it rains.
BalmoralThe pipes come in on the last verse, a remembrance of where you are.
Station VIII
