Whip it, whip it good
Small tows were always easier to manage things, and it wasn't like this was tiny, but it wasn't the city. Sadie preferred that, to be in a place where she could be as visible or slip away as she wanted. Both were honestly harder in a larger population, and the latter was virtually impossible in a smaller one.
As modern as places like this ever got, it still managed to feel like it was holding on to the time when the roots of the place were sunk almost a century ago. She liked that too, things with age and miles tended to have the bugs worked out of them.
With a name like Copperreach one would have thought to see mines, but those had petered out years ago, the name had stuck though, as had the tow pride. The fixtures of nearly everything around eschewed bright chrome or solid iron for the gleam of copper.
Not so old-fashioned as to lack the comfort or convenience of a bar without door seating and shade, that was where Sadie would be found. Already seated with a strange combination of ice tea and a smaller glass with two fingers of a decidedly more biting amber liquid.
