Silver Stream
Silver Stream is the main river flowing through Ron Dequois. It takes in irradiated water from throughout the district and turns it potable by the time it reaches Baus Haus. The residents of Ron Dequois herald the geographical wonder as a miracle sent forth by the Gods themselves. Others argue that the moondrops which grow by the river naturally siphon off the radiation and pollution which might explain the hallucinatory effects that occur upon consumption of their seeds.
Geography
The river water flows quickly in some parts and stays at a standstill in others. A strange effect that outsiders have documented is that when in close proximity to the river all noise seems to be drowned out, regardless of how loud the current is. Locals seem completely oblivious to this fact and go so far as to actively deny this strange property of the stream. The effect can be seen best by finding a very calm section of the bank and attempting to scream - no sound is heard.
Fauna & Flora
A rare plant called the Moondrop grows at the river banks which causes psychedelic hallucinations upon consumption of the seed pod. Moondrops are the main export of the district and farmed to excess by farmers who have set up shop by the water. Farmers are very protective of their crop, and will often have guard dogs and other security measures in place to deter thieves.
