Description
The name of the Dust Woods, to the east of the city, changed shortly before The War, before then it was called the Gust Woods. The cool wind coming off the mountain in the west would shake the leaves and cause the trees to creak and moan. While a somewhat creepy effect, people enjoyed hikes and the forest would also be used in bits and pieces for wood while The City was growing. However, leading up to The War and during it especially, the winds that made it charming and creepy in equal measure spread Dust, soot, and other chemicals from The Industrial District into it. Many plants and animals here are covered in a fine dust that slightly burns to the touch. Since The War more Lunatics have shown up in the woods and what was once a slightly creepy effect has started to become a harbinger of a dust cloud being blown across the woods in a way that leaves the unprepared choking and gasping with burning lungs and eyes.
Denizens
