The Holy City
The Holy City sits at the centre of the Great Basin. The Ancient, mud-brick Ziggurat at its centre is dedicated to an ancient god known as The Merciless One.
The first wall encompasses the Ziggurat, and the populated area known as the sinful sprawl lies beyond it.
Encompassing that is the outer wall, a mud brick structure a day's journey by camel in circumference.
Other Settlements
Up on the escarpment are the two ice mining settlements (a journey from the Holy City seven days and thirteen days by camel respectively) Kulon, and Bkuzos.
These are involved in mining ice for movement of water back to the Holy City, as well as the growing of Food.
The Ruins of Tkumku
A city made of metal and ceramic that is now mined for metals and ceramics by those looking to risk their lives for reward, delving into its subterranean caverns and tunnels.
Beneath the Perpetual Sun
The Sun never sets. Rather it beats down upon the known world focusing its light and heat on the Holy City and the lands around it. Only the two glaciers resist the Merciless Light.
