Underneath

The Great Dark beneath the city is vast. It is an endless length of tunnels and canals, natural cysts, and shafts that fall for miles. It is a hollow cocoon above the void, a place liable to collapse at any moment and open up some dark fissure into the light. Most famous amongst these fissures is the Eye, found in the Hollow and Broken Hills district.
The Underneath, they say, touches every part of the city, and every home lies just a god’s whim away from being devoured by the dark. There are countless tales of whole streets vanishing, and of caves opening suddenly beneath nurseries to allow faceless monsters to take babies.
Underneath is everything below the city — and it is vast and deep. They say a king who lived a hundred years had an army toiling in the dark, and these men and Dwarves never saw daylight in their lives. Countless escape-tunnels, stores, submerged canals, and shafts are the result. Far, far below, a rumour persists of a creature called the Body Snatcher, the thing that once owned the city and whose hive aspects wants it back.
