"Canen, lowest of the low... All right, if that's what you want."
The Player leads you down the road, deeper into the Labyrinth. You begin to see people as you go, most moving around briskly on business and keeping their eyes on the ground. In the shadows, you can sometimes see a flicker of more furtive movement. "Keep your eyes to yourself," the Player cautions. "People around here don't much like being watched.
"There are subsections in Canen too, you know," she murmurs as you walk. "Everything subdivides into tiny little bits. Clothhouse Row is the best-smelling area, if you don't mind bleach...at least it's not waste. Cannery Row is pretty horrible. The Iron Fortress is just kinda scary, and very sooty. There's the Freehold, or Little Nobles' District, which is nicer but not great by any stretch of the imagination. Boneyard Row is just the graveyard. Most people come here for Nighttown, though, what with the...interesting shady stuff that goes on there."
There are no tangible boundaries between Canen and the rest of the Labyrinth townships, but there are markers. The Player points out a small scrap of checkered cloth tied to a stake that has been planted right by the road. "Rat territory. It's one of the Canen gangs...that's really how you tell where you are, by what gang holds the turf. All right, so which way now?"
