The Needles

Wealthy uppermost tips of Phobos' perforated skyscraper towers.

The Needles, the opulent uppermost spires of Phobos' perforated skyscrapers, represent the pinnacle of Gold society luxury in the Red Rising Saga. Introduced in Morning Star as the lavish domain of the elite, they serve as a stark symbol of the Society's stratified excess amid the escalating rebellion. Though their role remains confined to the third book, The Needles underscore the vulnerability of the Golds' lofty perches when Darrow's forces strike at the heart of their power.
