All of the inhabitants are former Wellies, now called Wastrels, who are forever stuck in the scraps of their former civilization. The Garden District is the area where the outcasts try and survive another day. If they find someone who is sad or worried about something in their past, which is typical behaviour of a Downer, they'll quickly be lethally subdued by the authority. The inhabitants are called Wellies, and they do their best to keep the past where it belongs. The historic buildings are covered in colourful stripes, inspirational propaganda posters, and Joy Detectors futuristic technology meant to detect and alarm when someone hasn't taken their Joy.

Hamlyn Village is the area where society thrives, having gone to great lengths to conceal their awful past. Soon afterwards, the citizens began to favour the future and decided to rebuild part of the city to reflect their newfound perspectives, though it didn't take long before they were divided. Four years after the Victory, Joy was created. This caused General Byng to commission a drug that would make the consumer go through drug-induced amnesia in order to forget the past, and because they wouldn't remember their tragic past, they'd instead be happy again. During the Occupation, all citizens of Wellington Wells sent all of their children under the age of 13 to Germany, without knowing what was going to happen to them, or if they'd ever return.īecause of this event, every citizen in Wellington Wells was left feeling great guilt and sorrow over what they had done, getting upset over the mere sight of a child. In 1943, Germany successfully invaded and occupied England during World War II.
