Bara api

A relatively organized section of the stronghold, the trading post is where the Gear Rats interact with outsiders, exchanging scavenged goods and bartering for necessities. Here, tense negotiations take place, and alliances are forged and broken. The post is a melting pot of desperation and opportunity, where survival hinges on shrewd deals and wary trust. It serves the purpose of trade, and limited social interaction with outsiders.

The post is a chaotic blend of makeshift stalls and rusted machinery, adorned with colorful banners and graffiti that reflect the struggles and hopes of its inhabitants. The air is thick with the scent of oil and sweat, and the sounds of haggling fill the atmosphere.
