Beneath Zaun's Ash
Zaun. A sprawling city erected from the ruins of a forgotten past. The air chokes with the aroma of industry and deterioration. Beneath this ashy veil, secrets hide. Stories whispered in the dim light of oil-fueled flares, tales of misfits who fight for survival in a world consumed by its own hunger.
This place lies the heart of Zaun's underbelly. A place where justice is a mere fantasy, and any day could be your last.

Whispers in the Hexgates
The hexgates here themselves hummed, their glowing energies a constant temptation. Legends told of voices caught within the gates, shreds of prayers lost to the barriers that divorced worlds. Some swore these sounds held truths, lost and dangerous.
A brave few, pushed by ambition, sought to uncover these fragments. Their journeys were often tragic, their attempts swallowed by the energies' depth.
Yet, the murmurs persisted, a unrelenting reminder of the secrets hidden within the hexgates' core.
Zaun's Unseen Hand
Within Zaun's grimy labyrinth, whispers slither through the throngs. They speak of a force, unseen and unrelenting, twisting the city's destiny with devious intent. The Unseen Hand operates, its tendrils entangling into every facet of Zaun life. From the illicit black markets to the hallowed halls of the Chem-Barons, its' influence seeps deep. Few who are brave enough to challenge the Hand vanish without a trace, swallowed by the city's hungry maw.
- Some say it is a clandestine organization of elite Zaunite inventors, driven by a vision for technological dominance.
- Others whisper of ancient, unhallowed rituals practiced in the city's darkest corners, awakening slumbering entities with nefarious goals.
- And then there are those who believe it is something altogether more cosmic, an entity from beyond the veil desiring to claim Zaun as its own.
