Emerald City is the analogue for Seattle in Terra Acerba, the setting for Darkness in the Emerald City. On the surface it looks just like Seattle and its environs, but all of the peoples names have been changed. The neighborhoods look the same, but there are more of the Tong in the International District, and that Lexus SUV in Bellevue might be full of Yakuza.
