silversneasels' Lair

In the outskirts of the Hive Chambers, there lies a series of deep, viscous pools of rotten muck and toxic refuse. None are quite sure where it came from or how it came to be, but beneath them, it is rumored, are veinlike tunnels leading to a rich lake from which the PlagueBringer drank. True or not, it is what those who live near the pools believe. Poor souls who live in the vicinity of the vats don't live long; the fumes corrode the lungs. Instead, they give their lives for the flight's glory.
