city of Hells Bridge

Idea

a city between the roads

to the nine hells to the south

and

to the seven heavens to the north

between is a city where the laws of order and crimes of chaos can mix

and do business

200 years ago a rebellion occured and the city won its freedom
from a tyrant king far away over the ocean to the east.

Since then the city has grown and prospered in its ways.

The industries of the hells meeting up with the wealth of the heavens.

All sides of the same spinning coins.

Idea

A campfire on an open featurless plain.

Figures in shadows around it.

Some other fires a distance away no more than candlelight

The figures are huddled around the fire close enough to touch it.

They remember when the fire burned bright and hot

its much dimmer now.

they speak in strange words and hissing.

they wait.
