Slave Markets of Keth

A brutal trading hub where the Crimson Tide deals in human lives. The markets are a maze of cages and chambers, where the desperate are bought and sold like cattle. Rax the Scarred oversees operations here, though he maintains the fiction of legitimacy through contracts and legal loopholes.

Lyra spent her formative years in these markets, enslaved and shaped into a weapon. The city represents everything she escaped from and everything she might return to if her pact fails.

The markets are also a nexus of power for the Crimson Tide—from here, cursed individuals are sold to the highest bidder, weapons are crafted from curse-dust, and operations span across the realm.
