Ephyra
From Gears of War
[edit] The City
Ephyra is the name of the city in which most of the events in Gears of War occurs. It is built upon the once-thought impregnable Jacinto Plateau by the COG, Ephyra is now infested and overrun by the Locust and only a few pockets of Stranded human survivors remain. Now in ruin, every night after dusk, the city becomes the feeding ground of the fearsome and indescriminate Kryll, and all who live there must ensure that their location is well lit or they will fall prey to the ferocious creautres. The members of Alpha and Delta Squads were both sent into Ephyra to place the resonator in the Locust tunnels. However, when that failed, Delta Squad headed for Tyro Station to catch a train to activate the Lightmass Bomb.
