The South Wing, nicknamed the Green Mile, was where Dact (and the mysterious Whoosher) were currently at. Most of the shops in this segment consisted of specialty clothing shops, hair and nail salons, and massage parlors. It was one of the Galleria's more frequented areas. If Dact were to look about, he would note that the walls did follow a green color scheme (but why were the topiaries shaped like musclebound himbos striking various poses?).
The wing to the immediate right of the Green Mile was Yellow Alley. The name of the different stores suggested that this sectioned mostly catered to the goth and emo crowd, although there were also herbal shops, linens.... even a shop that sold custom-built coffins! A small food court was built at the end, consisting mostly of bars.
Counter clockwise to Yellow Alley was the Orange Ward which sold weapons, cutlery, and power tools. At the end was an outdoors store that apparently had a built-in shooting gallery.
Opposite to the Green Mile was the Red Sector which seemed to hold shops designed for younger consumers. There were various toy stores and shops that offered young apparel.... Even a Build-A-Plushie shop! A large indoor playground dominated the end of the section.
Next was Violet Town! Interestingly, this segment had a more eccentric offering. There were antique stores, art galleries, candy shops... and finally a movie theater at the end. Unlike the other segments, which were linear in shape, Violet Town was arranged in an odd squiggle. Most perplexing! T~T
Finally, there was Avenue Blue, located to the left of the Green Mile. It also specialized in women’s fashion, as well as “comfortable shoes” (whatever that meant ,’:|). At the end of the segment was another food court area, consisting primarily of cafes, small bakeries, vegan crap, etc.

What a shame. That was probably my favorite place in the entire Galleria...
...Well, whatever.
*The figure scampers ahead to the aforementioned junction, curiosity getting the best of it.*
Curiosity must have been framed, for the shadowy intriguer finds not death but passages to Avenue Q and Yellow Alley. The way to the former had been barred by a gate. Furthermore, some rube had seen fit to place an overturned bench in front of it. How rude!
The enigmatic figure could hear the sound of heavy footsteps coming from the right, in the direction of the Yellow Alley.

How pragmatic. Unfortunately there are a number of places an intruder, such as a chibi demon, could launch an ambush including the numerous kiosks selling makeup, jewelry, frilly swimwear… There was also the occasional intersection leading to restrooms and presumably storage facilties.

Wait! There. Behind the cardboard cutout of the chesty fox girl!
