=Places= ==The ice wastes== What's left of the roads are kept clear by Plower and his crew of crazy fuckers who drive these ancient snow-clearing machines, chopping up trees that fall across the roads, and get all the food, drink, and heat at any settlement that doesn't want to end up cut off, never to be heard from again. A road is any stretch of frozen ground with less than a foot of snow on it, or any river or lake with more than a foot of ice. If Plower's crew says you can drive there, you can drive there. Anywhere else? You're taking your chances. ==The woods== Some go there because they have to get some jingle and wood is at a fucking premium all the fucking time. If they go alone, and they stay on the edges, and they get out before night falls, maybe they come back nine times out of ten. But for the most part it's slavery. You fuck up bad enough and don't have the jingle to settle the debt, off you go on a lumber crew. And then there's those who claim to trade with folk who live in there. ==Settlements== The world is cold now, but in a few places there are hot springs or vents and you better believe someone owns that shit. Some try to make do with firewood but that means the woods. ===Logger Town, also called Gösta=== Previously just a few shacks around '''Bumpers'''' place. Nothing left of that now that we've got logs coming in from the forest for proper houses. Nowadays most outsiders call it Logger Town. I figure they're even less eager to go into the woods elsewhere. Those who've lived here longest call it Gösta, supposedly short for "City of the Gods". The olds take the rituals up at the ruins very seriously. '''Ylva''' took Bumper’s place at the springs, and built '''Ragnhall'''. The guy selling bedwarmth now is called '''Greensleeves'''. ====Ragnhall - hall of the gods==== Ylva’s place. People come to Ragnhall to escape the darkness, the dreariness, the bleak fucking cold. For a few hours they get songs and dance and they get to be the gods of their own stories. Sure, there's some food and drink to be had, but the main feature is the crew of dancers, singers, and actors who bring the stories to life, with enthusiastic and welcome audience participation. Main attraction: Spectacle Supporting attractions: Music, art Atmosphere: Intimacy, fantasy, forgetting, dancing ===Forge=== '''Surtr''''s place. Huddled alongside and inside old ruined factories from before, it's got more than its share of makers and builders. '''The Buzzard Market''' - selling, buying, renting by the hour; once a month the narrow corridors and claustrophobic siderooms of Forge’s crumbling markethall writhe with life. People come from Logger Town, a couple of other nearby settlements, even down from Splitsville if they really want something. '''The Scrapyard''' - where the rusted hulks of old trucks and buses and shit have been pulled together and remade to quarters, mostly for the indentured. People get sick in there all the time. Skuld lives here, and so does '''Key'''. '''The Chandle House''' - where the flesh of the inglorious dead is rendered into tallow – for candles, soap, biodiesel and food for thralls – and their bones are stored. ====Sjöfn´s place==== In the basement of a crumbling concrete silo near the scrapforge - all the better to draw in a decent crowd at the end of a hard shift feeding the roaring furnaces. *Skuld: I imagine Sjöfn´s place to be a place of pleasures that aspires to be at least semi-classy. Baths with or without attendants (mostly, but not necessarily for sex), drugs, drink, maybe some entertainers in market times. I picture something [https://www.instagram.com/p/BYrEx2xBoSO/ like this] going on, mostly because I just saw it. *Ylva: Sjöfn is a clever and underhanded bitch. She always seems to be three moves ahead, as long as she doesn't let her temper get the best of her. I don't know if she's actually mean and mostly hides it or if she just lashes out hard when she gets pissed at someone. I kicked her out for whoring and trying to get some of the other cast members to join her. I don't want that shit at my place, not after getting away from the shitface Bumpers. She claimed she had planned to leave anyway so I'm not sure how she felt about it. I... kinda miss her. She's a bitch, but she's fun to be around as long as she doesn't turn on you. ===Fish-hold=== Somewhere to the northeast, on the trade route. Where the snow never settles and the fjord never freezes. '''Brettir''' has been there - he says there's a guy, I shit you not, runs a fucking spa. A spa - big steaming pools of hot clean water. You ever heard anything like that? ===Splitsville=== Two days up the trade route, such as it is, in Splitsville, they've got these skate races where they go around a track out over the lake and in through the town, and half the time someone breaks a leg or their neck. A body can make good jingle at that racing if they've got the skill and the looks, or can bet on those who do. '''Crash/burn''' - '''Minko''''s place, in a prime spot where you can see almost the whole track. ===Tyrs Hafn=== Where Dragi is from. Ruled by the Tyr amputation cult.
