The Grand Arena has been the center of this world for generations. Recently with the control of the Grand Leader and the conjuring of portals the Grand Arena has consumed the resources of the world. The separation between those in the Grand Arena and those who live outside is clear. The Grand Arena is nearly impenetrable, existing on a heavily patrolled mesa and protected with a powerful aura of mana barriers. There is one long tunnel that originates near the Grand Leader's palace that leads all the way to a long waste tunnel that leads to...
Durnmagon. A slum that processes the waste and grey-water from the Grand Arena. The most profitable area in the outlands as it has one of the most steady supply of "water" on the world. The residence of this slum are skilled in repurposing and recycling waste and some are skilled in various ways of filtering or purifying the grey water for use. Most of the water is traded to the Harrowed Fields for their modest skill in growing food. Toxic materials and sludge is poured into the Sludge Lake.
Sludge Lake. A toxic lake that grows deeper every passing day. Rumors now circle that the toxic mixture has spawned something terrifying.
Between Durnmagon and Slum Towne is Slum Row. Slum Row is the main area for trade and activity in the outlands. Scavs, a relatively young race of Outland natives, trade with the native and non-native slum residence for rare spices and curios from the more perilous Outland areas.
Slum Towne is an area of housing and recreation. Mostly used for the very young, the very old, and the injured, Slum Towne is the most solidly built rest areas in all the Outland slums. The workers of Durnmagon and the farmers of the Harrowed Fields both do what they can to look after the saftey and security of this area. A few secret and guarded areas contain volunteer healers who do what they can to heal the injured and return to the working slums.
The Harrowed Fields are over a deep nearly inaccessible aquifer, but water does seep up enough for the skilled farmers to grow modest crops. When they have a surplus they trade their supply for water from Durnmagon and brass from Scavs on Slum Row. Certain farmers are becoming skilled at constructing aquaponics with these traded materials. The recent introduction of the tomato seed to these contraptions are about to change the dynamics of the slums.
