Zaun. A sprawling city built from the remnants of a forgotten past. The air stagnates with the tang of industry and decay. Below this ashy veil, secrets hide. Stories whispered in the dim light of glowing embers, tales of misfits who fight for survival in a world overtaken by its own greed.
Within these walls lies the heart of Zaun's shadow. A place where justice is a mere fantasy, and every day could be your last.

Rustlings in the Hexgates
The hexgates themselves rumbled, their flickering energies a constant threat. Legends told of voices caught within the gates, shreds of conversations lost to the barriers that divorced worlds. Many swore these sounds held knowledge, lost and dangerous.
A brave few, pushed by desperation, sought to hear these fragments. Their expeditions were often disastrous, their efforts swallowed by the energies' immensity.
Yet, the murmurs persisted, a constant reminder of the truths concealed within the hexgates' heart.
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 subtle intent. The Unseen Hand conducts, its tendrils entangling into every facet of Zaun life. From the illicit black markets to the hallowed halls amongst the Chem-Barons, its influence flows deep. Those bold enough to challenge it 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 longing to claim Zaun as its own.
