Metroplexity

Location

This area is unlocked during the Problems on the Docks quest, and closes afterward.

Resting:

You find a dark corner, only subtly illuminated by the flickering lakes of fire. Curling up there for a few minutes, you feel even more exhausted, but your wounds have healed a bit.
