Long ago, Duke Jonathan Sibectio, primary advisor to the ruler of the city Tenarre, saw that Tenarre's streets were full of criminals and cripples, rejected and with nowhere to go but the streets. He suggested a solution; a massive complex, like a prison, underground near it and other cities nearby that shared allegiance. He was given the go ahead and began work on the complex. The first citizens of the underground complex were it's creators; Jonathan Sibectio himself was kept there by the ruler's administrative forces, who remain in place to this day.
Some say Sibectio himself is still alive, buried in the deepest recesses of the prison complex that earned his name. Others say he became the prison.
Really, nobody knows.
Today, the prison is much larger than Sibectio originally imagined it; sixty years of expansion by mining shows well. The population has also grown; if the founder is in fact to be found within the complex, he will be hard indeed to find.
Fierce monsters to fight and precious minerals to mine out of the earth abound in the deepest part of the complex. Teams of miners and monster hunters descend with caution to mine and hunt; dim lighting and unstable ceilings make such expeditions dangerous. But it pays off well; many monsters provide edible meat, and all of the hides and teeth and claws from the monsters can be made into things, for use in the complex or export to the cities above. And the minerals, once refined, can be used to repair or make new machinery, or also for export.
Great ships enter and exit the uppermost parts of the cavern frequently; bringing more citizens for the underworld, to work and to fight, and rare indeed is it for anyone to leave. You are one of these citizens, arrested from your home for whatever heinous crime you have committed or mental/physical ailment you have no control over, placed on a great airship to go to the much-feared underground complex known as Sibectio.
What will you do?
