[The Rift]
Rows of cages line the walkways, bars rusting away in the damp air. Within each is a deformed and horrible creature, stalking behind the metal grills. The cage in the center contains a three-headed lion, frothing and drooling in snarling rage. A woman stands within it, desperately attempting to hold the maws of the lion's heads shut, but her chances look slim at best. You also see a raving lunatic and a csetairi.
Also here: Zentalin
Obvious paths: west, northwest.
