Dust Quarter

Only two things get this dusty - skeletons and nobles. Can't wait to be one of 'em.

  In the center of Gloomwrought is the oldest part of the city. The Dust Quarter takes its name from the fine layer of dirty residue that covers all the ancient buildings and cramped streets. The dust can be stirred up and cleared away, but it always returns. It is as though the area attracts the powder, or the particles emerge from the stones while nobody is looking.   Affluence infuses this district, where the welathy dwell in great mansions and keeps. A tangible sense of age fills the quarter. The district's architecture has evolved to reflect the personalities and lifestyles of the people living there, causing many buildings to become tall and ostentatious. Among these structures, the palace of Prince Rolan the Deathless is the oldest and grandest building.   In the Dust Quarter, a depressing and uneasy atmosphere mimics the pervasive hollow feeling of the greater Shadowfell. Streets are almost always empty except for a few quickly moving servants or stoic guards, Few of the nobles venture outside their fabulous strongholds.
