* The location of the City has been the source of much speculation. One theory, based on the movements of the [[Sol|Sun]] and the local geography, suggests that the City is located in Nepal.<ref>[http://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/38nbqq/the_last_city_is_pokhara_nepal/ '''Reddit''': The Last City is Pokhara, Nepal]</ref> Other theories place the city in southwestern Canada, northern Chile, and in the southern Andes range on the border between Chile and Argentina or it could be located somewhere in the Caucasus mountains in Russia based on the Cosmodrome's relatively nearby location during [[A Guardian Rises]] closing cinematic. In the lost Cryptarch mission, Amanda refers to the EDZ as "Back across the Pond" Indicating the City being in North America. Based on the Mountainous Terrain, it's possible the Last City could be around Denver, Colorado or Colorado Springs. | * The location of the City has been the source of much speculation.

**Suraya Hawthorne makes a simular notion in one of the EDZ adventure mission, stating that when she heard the city's distress signal she flew across the ocean to help. This does indeed place the city on the North or South American continent. Since she was running supplies in the EDZ when the signal came through and flying to anywhere in Europe, Russia, Asia and Africa from there would not have required her to cross any oceans. | |||
**After the first mission of the Forsaken campaign, [[Amanda Holliday]] states that her mother died crossing the Panama Ravine on their way to The Last City, with her father dying just outside its gate. Given this, and her extremely Southern United States mannerisms/accent, it's reasonable to assume that The Last City is somewhere in South America. | **After the first mission of the Forsaken campaign, [[Amanda Holliday]] states that her mother died crossing the Panama Ravine on their way to The Last City, with her father dying just outside its gate.

**In addition to the above, the lore tab for [[the Colony]] [[Exotic|exotic]] [[Grenade launcher|grenade launcher]] mentions that a man died of a [[Wikipedia:Bothrops asper|terciopelo]] snake bite near the City. Terciopelo snakes, also known by the scientific name Bothrops asper, naturally range between southern Mexico to northern South America, further supporting that the Last City is in South America. | **In addition to the above, the lore tab for [[the Colony]] [[Exotic|exotic]] [[Grenade launcher|grenade launcher]] mentions that a man died of a [[Wikipedia:Bothrops asper|terciopelo]] snake bite near the City.
