The city was subsequently abandoned aside from a handful of Federation patrols, although the CIF reoccupied it as a base for the assault on Presidia exactly two months later. Led by General Morgan Elizabeth, they nearly retook it in Operation Anticipation when the Federation carried out its plan and destroyed the city, inadvertently setting off the Cascadian Calamity Event in the process Elizabeth himself was vaporized by one of the missiles. The CIF began shelling the city in the few days leading up to their invasion of the city on June 2, knocking out numerous ground and air defenses, although counterattacks from Federation fighters continued. They camouflaged this plan around May 26, AC 432 by shutting down the city's airspace and geomonitoring station and seizing civilian aircraft for evacuating VIPs, stranding the locals in the process. Most of Federation air traffic operated from Prospero for the duration of its use.Īs the war situation worsened for the Federation, their higher-ups concocted a secret plan to level the city using cordium-tipped cruise missiles to terrify the Cascadian Independence Force into ending the war in the Federation's favor.

Buried underneath Prospero are inert geothermal and cordium deposits. It was made up of numerous skyscrapers and other tall buildings and featured four waterborne runways stretching out from an underground airbase. The city is surrounded by dams on the coast and greenery from nearby mountain ranges.
