Neighborhood: Tangent

The neighborhood sits right next to the river and to one side on its own level. Looking at the neighborhood from higher levels there doesn’t appear to be any route into Tangent, yet people tend to find their way there, but only if they are merely wondering within the city. Once there, they always find something to do. The neighborhood is absolutely bustling with activity, but upon finishing the task they found themselves focused on upon entering, just a few steps later they find themselves back at the place they were last at outside of Tangent. Interestingly, it appears that no time will have passed between leaving and returning.

Those that live in Tangent were those that had no real home or job within the city when they entered, but find life in Tangent perfect for themselves. There are always lots of customers for their shops, and plenty of down time as well to enjoy many of the entertainment venues scattered around Tangent.

No one really knows when Tangent was started, or by whom. The oldest families in the city tell the same story–it’s always been there.
