The Gullet
The Gullet is the remains of a City built into the cliff face of a lagoon. With an automatic magic defense system that no one knows how to control
The system keeps the ruins and small settlements isolated for most of the time.
The last outsider Trader disappeared while exploring the lower city. It is believed he was trying to find a safe way to the power source. He had told people that he had found some information that may help them if he could get to the source.
Due to the poor farming techniques, there has been a slow decline in seed stock. This has led to some desperate attempts to once again shop outside of the settlement. Winston and Sir Barksalot are the 1st resadents to escape the city.

Industry & Trade

Infrastructure
Most of the city's old automatic amities still work. With running waters and a good sewer system. there are also automatic furnaces. The city has a magic power source that no one has been able to look at due to needing to pass through a poisoned section of the under-city to get to it. so for the automated helpers have kept everything running without problems so far.

Architecture
The city is built on 8, 20 footsteps going back into the cliff face. With each step being 50 feet deep. The back wall of the last, highest steep being 350 feet deep into the cliff and 140 feet above the lagoon. The lowest step is at the lagoon level and is a mile wide. The top step is half a mile wide.
The ancient city is carved into the cliff face forming a cave. The stone of the city is very hard and has lasted the test time. but the stone the buildings are built out of does not look to be local to the area. There is also a lot of marble and column frontage to the more high-class buildings built into the cliff and step faces. The top 4 steps have this frontage. The top step has a 50-foot space before the roof of the cave.
That top step has the main ornate entrance to the undercity. with a large building front carved into the cave wall at the center. On either side of the building are 50 foot carving of the The Original 10. 5 each side with the closest ones being Hendursaga God of Law on the left and Mammetun Goddess of Chaos on the right. However, the rest of the statues on Hendursaga God of Law side are elemental ones also known to be chaotic and the ones on Mammetun Goddess of Chaos side are the consorts also known to be lawfull.

Geography
Above the city's cliffside but still within the shield are extensive farmlands. Unfortunately, the city needs people to farm them. This leaves the farming to be done by the automated helpers, that are not very good farmers, without someone telling them what to do.
Natural Resources
Extensive Copper and tin mines allow magitech bronze to be made in automatic furnaces. Fish from the lagoon and fresh vegetables from the farms help to feed the people.
