The best nightlife Galendra has to offer is in the Commercial District, but it can be the most dangerous area for those who don't know what to look for. It's long been a battleground, both between gangs and between cultures as off-world influences seep through the streets. But only recently has it started looking like the scene of battle.
What's Here
Where it borders residential areas, stores and restaurants are owned by natives and many have housing on their upper floors. Bright paint and lights adorn every surface they can, and bassy music thrums throughout the night. Tattoo and body mod parlors fill spaces adjacent to cafes and bookshops. Parks host outdoor concerts throughout the year, rain or shine. Deeper into the district, apartments and homes become less common, replaced by concert halls, casinos, clubs, and hotels.

Closer to the Corporatist District, everything falls apart. Where once off-world chains bled over from the corporate areas, buildings lie collapsed in on themselves, coated in a layer of glittering paint. A chasm runs the length of the district border, marking where infamous Wyre Rat K-Ra placed bombs underground. Hundreds of stores owned by off-world businesses were damaged beyond repair in a matter of minutes, doused in fireworks and paint to make sure they knew why they weren't welcomed.
