Hillston borough of Backlund, older urban fabric and detective offices.

Hillston Municipality emerges in the series as the aging, labyrinthine borough of Backlund that anchors the detective work of Klein Moretti’s new identity, Sherlock Moriarty. Across the volumes it transitions from a mere backdrop of foggy streets and cramped offices into a microcosm of the city’s occult undercurrents, where gas-lamps flicker over ritual sites and every alley may conceal a Beyonder skirmish. Its cobbled lanes and soot-stained façades become the silent witnesses to Klein’s ascent through the Tarot Club and the machinations of secret organizations, embodying both the mundane heartbeat of the capital and the hidden pulse of the extraordinary.
