Lower Rimior

Aela heard the explosions go off and panicked. She'd heard rumors of Incursions plans but hadn't believed it, not until she felt the platform fall out from under her feet. Incursion had really destroyed the supports holding them to the side of the rift, and now her platform began to slide into it's gaping maw. Aela rushed to find safety, something she could grab as panicked workers rushed all around her. Smaller mining platforms began to crash all around her, and Aela barely made it into a nearby bunker, one of the few buildings on the main platform made of stone. The slide began to pick up speed, and Aela prayed to the Eight heavens above for safety. it felt like an eternity hiding curled up in that bunker when Aela heard a loud boom, and a crash. The platform lurched, and seemed to slow it's descent! Someone had managed to launch to emergency bindings! Aela looked outside and saw the platform slow, as the massive metal chains pulled tight, suspending the platform from the side of the Rift. It seemed to have happened just in time too as, confusingly, they seemed to run out of wall. Only know did Aela realize that down here, however far down they had fallen, the Rift opened up. The platform know seemed to hang from the ceiling of a cavern so massive it boggled her mind, so deep that looking over the edge, all she could see was mist, so wide she couldn't see its edge. The platform may be safe for now, but wherever they had ended up might not be any better.   The City of the Rift- Rimior- is well known for its for its unique attraction. The massive gash in the ground the city is built around and plunders it's mineral wealth from is seemingly bottomless. All attempts to search for its bottom has resulted in the brave explorers never returning. But hidden deep within the hole is a secret, a set of forgotten platforms sent down ages ago, filled with the criminals of Rimior. the city council had assumed that detaching the platforms would be a death sentence, but its inhabitants managed to survive the fall. Now the old platforms which once made up lower Rimior hang from the bottom of the Rift, and live as some of the only mortals to see what truly lies beneath the ground, The Underworld.

Geography

Lower Rimior Opens up into what appears to be an endlessly massive cavern. The Ceiling of this cavern is dotted with massive stalactites, and occasionally one can see huge pillars of stone, bigger than a city, than connect the ceiling to whatever is below. Glimmering gems dot the ceiling occasionally, glowing with all manner of lights. An Observer might notice that the lights seem to group together by color, and so different regions of the cavern are each bathed in a different color. The Area around Rimior is a dark, sickly green, barely bright enough to see by. Water is scarce, flowing only from occasional holes in the ceiling that lead to underground rivers. The fog that covers the lower caverns is confounds all attempts to see what might hide at the bottom of the cavern, and no soul has managed to return from its depths. If a expedition could be made to one of the connecting pillars, it might be possible to climb down, but the inhabitants of lower Rimior are concerned enough with survival to do much exploration.
