Paragon is known to be the haven of perfection. A society built on walls, dividing different cities for people with different genetic levels.
Perfect citizens will be automatically relocated to the innermost city where a luxurious life awaits. The unfortunate ones, however, will be placed in a city of their corresponding level where each individual is given a chance to climb up to perfection by earning utility scores.
For a Defective like Cole Lancer, it's a different story.
