Path of the broken way.

Spanning from the city of Natare, to the mangrove forest in the north, the path of the broken way is an ancient trade route turned smuggling path. A good 10 day hike, the path of the broken way is best travelled by foot, as several parts of the path are unfit for carts or things with wheels. Many of the more eclectic ways of travel are possible, but may have trouble with the narrower parts of the path.
The path takes a 150m elevation change over the course of its journey with a hidden rest stop near the start of the second day.
Packing a sleeping bag is recommended, as the trail offers little natural place to rest along the parts covered by the bramble canopy. Those wishing to stay unknown would be best travelling at night across this section, as the trail crosses several active trade paths, close to the 'surface'.

Purpose / Function

Originally a supply path between Natare and one of the human outposts to the north, the broken path starts technically anywhere one can access the sewers of Natare, but in truth, down by Oak Street, with the sign of an eye on the old stone cover.

Alterations

Several sections within the old sewers have been reinforced with cave dwelling plants that harden into support strutts.

Architecture

Stone for the length under Natare, a simple stacked brick configuration, dirt pathing from the sewers to the waterfall. A natural worn path into stone until 'the old hill'. The old hill is a outpost for smugglers, grown of very temperate but high water resistant trees, with modern ammnities on the inside. The next part of the path used to be a dirt road, but has become an underground bramble tunnel, taking one to the edge of the mangrove forest.
