BLACK MARKET WARRENS

Underground commerce. No faction controls it. Self-regulating.

No faction controls the Warrens. The Warrens control themselves. This works better than you'd expect.

OVERVIEW

From the Abandoned Transit, the noise hits you first. Commerce conducted at volume. A narrow passage through crumbling concrete opens into light — neon strips and UV lamps turning the underground into something between a bazaar and a fever dream. No faction controls the Warrens. The Warrens control themselves through the logic of mutual self-interest: everyone here has something to sell and something to lose, which creates a rough stability that enforcement couldn't improve. The merchandise ranges from medical supplies to chrome you can't trace to information about people who'd prefer not to be known about.
