Rue Katal

The great Waymet headquarters, the Rue Katal, is halfway between Amber and Mandalay.

Origins

The Rue Katal was a massive governmental center and luxury resort in a shadow which prides its self on its efficiency and its hedonism.

The Allied Regions of Gasal Katal rested on a massive planetary road crossing the gigantic continent spanning a massive planet. 8000 miles east to west at the Tropic of Cancer. A billion and a half people on the continent in a early computer age, with one working doctrine for their lives and business; He who makes the most people happy will make the most money. Their entire industrial and agricultural industries are aimed at efficiency, productivity, and availability. Each region has its specialty.

The nation itself has nearly a thousand years of peaceful interactions and had lost interest in combat games and conflict negotiation styles. The Rue Katal itself was the center of a massive cooperative administrative center.

• Rue Des Mondes:Rue Katal was also a crossroad on 5 major shadowtrails and it provided a vast commercial district called the Rue Des Mondes that traded in native merchandise and products from across thousands of shadows. From live stock to microcircutry and computerized vehicles could be found here even if they were ued no whereelse in the shadow.

Coming of the Jeweled Road

Rue Katal was fairly deep in shadow, out of the Jeweled amber sway, and closer to the center of shadow where wild things occurred and hard to believe things worked. It was a world that worshiped nature, sustainable industry, and peaceful interactions.

When Mandalay was created the forces and concepts of creation sought places that fit the Nature and peaceful interactions. Rue Katal was a natural.

The massive transcontinental road donate 400 miles in the middle for a segment of the main road. It also donated 100 miles on 5 separate crossing routes into shadow for the smaller roadways.

It also donated nearby complex of buildings with almost a 1000 rooms that was adjacent to the jeweled road and almost a square mile of parking area for hard surface parking. Across the road was a 3 square mile lightly wooded parkland with open fields that the road took over for camping and animal traffic.

These properties was not actually donated so much as consumed and renovated by the forces of revision as the Mark of Mandalay change billions of shadow realms.

While there is not official Waymet organization it developed that those with issues concerning portion of the Road began developing. Informal courts, at first, and then the Great Court of Appeals. Mediation experts. Merchant Caravan Guards. Many guilds located offices here. The kingdoms of Amber, Rebma, Mandalay, and the Courts of Chaos maintain offices and military elements here.

Courts Formal & Courts Informal

The Courts Formal & Courts Informal are an ancient tradition that has been brought to conflicts on the Jeweled Road. These are for mostly civil disputes, not criminal disputes.

These are a judicial procedures for settling disputes. The difference between the two courts is based on the level of likelihood that participants in an issue can settle the issue among themselves. If the participants in an issue agree that they can come to an agreement on an equitable settlement of the topic the issue is managed under the procedures of the Court Informal. If eventually the participants in an issue decided they can not agree on an issue after efforts in the Court Informal then the matter is taken up under the rules of the Courts Formal.

A Judge Informal is a mediator who helps participants in an issue to settle the matter in a reasonably short amount of time. A certified Judge Informal functions as a mediator, justice of the peace, notary republic, and function as a lawyer in writing wills, testaments, estate planning and property issues.
