 While many other gangs, mobs, and triads exist and operate on their own in Ley'Ork's shadows, everyone knows that the Wrens are the top dogs of the underworld. Paying them off, sitting firmly in their pockets, or fully selling out and operating under a firm Wren thumb becomes the endgame for most burgeoning organized crime outfits. Due to their close connections with the other HTUC groups, the law mostly turns the other way where Wrens are involved.

 //Daævian Family//
-This family of gnomes are highly secretive, and not very well known by name. The name of Ley'Ork National Laboratories is fairly well-known to academics, but hasn't quite achieved household level. Many of their inventions are credited under different names, such as the landmark Castefort engine, which was named for the scientist that invented it: Robert Castefort, a nobleman of a house originally from [[settings:cahyali:shinneok|Shinneok]]. The Dævians are major movers in the research & development sectors of Ley'Ork, being responsible for many technological developments. Metropolitan News attributes Ley'Ork's current "Steampunk Age" almost wholly to the inventions made by the Dævians.
+This family of gnomes are highly secretive, and not very well known by name. Their foundation sponsors a wide variety of laboratories, however, many of whom make names for themselves.

 Vane Security often contracts Ley'Ork National Labs to develop for them, and some more underground rumors posit that much of their contracted work - whether for Vane or the national government - veers into intensely unethical territory. National Laboratories denies any and all claims, and ensures the populace that all research occurring within their purview is entirely and completely vetted and approved to be ethical. By an HTUC investigation board, of course.
