 ===== Fixed Landmarks ===== ===== Fixed Landmarks =====
-There a few known fixed locales within the Null Labyrinth that explorers have charted. Many appear to be remnants of an ancient civilization, so old that not even the most ancient, crumbling undead residents know much about it. The architecture of these landmarks is similar, and bears no resemblance to any other Cahyalian style. Archaeologists and historians have named this civilization **Tarra,** from partially-translated text found in the most complete set of ruins. Nearly nothing is known about Tarra; who they were, where they went, or how they fell.+There are a few known fixed locales within the Null Labyrinth that explorers have charted. Many appear to be remnants of an ancient civilization, so old that not even the most ancient, crumbling undead residents know much about it. The architecture of these landmarks is similar, and bears no resemblance to any other Cahyalian style. Buildings are sharp and angular, monoliths of black stone and glass. Archaeologists and historians have named this civilization **Tarra,** from partially-translated text found in the most complete set of ruins. Nearly nothing is known about Tarra; who they were, where they went, or how they fell.
  
 **Null Caldera**: The caldera of an ancient volcano, where Tarran ruins, named the Arcane Forge, are located. Directly beneath is the Arcane Font. A fixed location, located about a thousand miles off the cost of Ley'Ork underneath Ulosian territory. The volcano this caldera is part of has not been active for thousands of years. **Null Caldera**: The caldera of an ancient volcano, where Tarran ruins, named the Arcane Forge, are located.

 **Ruins of Khaeritara**: What remains of an ancient Tarran city, long deserted. The most complete and oldest Tarran city to be found, to date. It is now haunted by silent spirits and malevolent, mindless undead. A fixed location, approximately underneath Dahabu's Al-Kharshi Bay.  **Ruins of Khaeritara**: What remains of an ancient Tarran city, long deserted.

-To date, no adventurers or explorers have managed to breach the deepest levels of Tarra. According to legend, the inner sanctum contains some sort of control system created by the Tarrans. These controls are magically linked to the Arcane Font, and allow a precise level of control over the Labyrinth's space. None know what form the rumored controls take, however, or how they're operated.+To date, no adventurers or explorers have managed to breach the deepest levels of Khaeritara.

-A giant cavern, about 300 miles across, filled with a veritable forest of giant fungi. These fungi are growing on an organic substrate of unknown composition that defies logic and identification. No other plants can grow on this material, not even surface fungi. By far the most populated region of the Null Labyrinth, and home to about 75% of the caverns' living population. Most explorers from the surface arrive here, as a persistent portal between MenghormatiUlos and Abberath exists and is open for authorized travel. Technology is more common here, as travelers from Ley'Ork, Ruefang, and Shinneok have brought in various technologies for trade.

 **Abberath:** The only place in the Null Labyrinth that can really be considered "metropolitan". A surprisingly bustling place, full of life despite the relatively hostile conditions. The city is built on top of ancient ruins, and is governed by a council made up of seven merchant and artisan guilds. **Abberath:** The only place in the Null Labyrinth that can really be considered "metropolitan".
