Cocoon

Cocoon was the largest of the gigantic floating cities of the planet Pulse.

Description
Cocoon was the largest of Pulse's gigantic floating cities and was where all its Prime Ministers established their seat of power. All Prime Ministers would build onto the main castle, and subsequently the main city as they entered office, which resulted in Coccoon's magnificent architecture and giant size. The residents of Cocoon were terrified of the Qiae on the surface world, so anything from the surface was confiscated and hidden from the public eye.

History
Liquid Ocelot lived and worked in Cocoon when he impersonated the Prime Minister of Pulse, but was removed from office when he was unmasked by Blackout. This incident only increased the citizens' fear of the surface world, so a strict martial law was enacted on Cocoon and declared to last indefinitely. In response, a resistance movement was formed to fight against the new martial law. The most recent known l'Qiae, Lightning, was a member of this resistance.
