::Time Square::
A quaint and lively location that brings together the urban hustle and bustle with a rural charm: that'd be a succinct way of describing Time Square. In this place with many different shops and food establishments, tall buildings and roads of concrete and bricks intermingle with grassy patches and trees. In addition, a few flowers planters can be found along the walls, including by the sidewalk near the Wave Liner station.
On the center of the main square is Mowai, a statue styled after the head of a Moai virus, which is perpetually spinning clockwise thanks to the Real Wave mechanism within. This statue is the main mascot of the area, attracting locals and tourists alike who want to capture it in their pictures. Some of the shops also sell merchandise of it, while others have their own variant mascots based on it.
Also within the main square are a few food stands, which are rarely the same from day to day, a couple of tables and seats on opposing sides, and three brick stairways, one leading down and out into the road, while the other two lead up into the main streets. There one can find Rover, a dog statue that's also a notable attraction. Other than that, there are also many kinds of establishments along the sidewalks, from bowling alleys to small shops to cafes and so much more.
But by far the most prominent establishment in Time Square is Nacys, a department store owned by the prestigious Platz Foundation which sells an assortment of products. The ground floor is dedicated to women's clothing, with pink walls to set the mood, though it also has a rather curious igloo surrounded by ice and mannequins of penguins and girls wearing bikinis. The other floors sells other sorts of apparel, Real Wave appliances, and much more, and have their own peculiar design choices as well. Even the rooftop of the tall building offers more things to do and look at, including an arcade, a playground for children, a mascot derived from Mowai, and a carefully tended garden. The rooftop is also the location of Nacys' main pride and joy, its event stage, which has hosted all sorts of different exhibitions. The most recurring one is a sub-tropical jungle exhibit where they display a variety of snakes.
There's more to Time Square beyond its main streets, of course. There's a calm area surrounded by trees with a few benches as well as a small fountain, which serves as a nice place for people to rest. It's also a passage to another popular establishment, the Star Stadium, made primarily to host battles between Wave Beings. Some more unsavory company can also be found on the Back Alley, a dark place between two massive skyscrapers, though the people that hang out there turn away anyone that doesn't have a bad reputaiton.
The Wave World above the area is pretty impressive as well. The number of establishments and the quantity of Real Wave objects and appliances end up creating an expansive network of roads and squares that intersect and interconnect in many different ways. Many visitors come through the Wave World as well, such as curious Hertz and Wizards who want to see the place's attractions with their own eyes. Other Wave Beings that frequent these roads include Hertz that carry cargo from and to the stores, viruses that bother not just the regular visitors out in the open but also the Hertz within the area's Wave Spaces, and a few Battle Wizards that take on the task of removing said viruses.
