Each consisted of a flowing artificial river, six platforms containing soil and plant life, and a series of ramps and walkways. They provided an excellent view of the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] at the center of the city. Environmental modules known as [[Valleys of Tears]] were located nearby.{{Ref/Reuse|gravemind}}
