Lolok

In the midst of the Kolomundu Jungle, a ridge of rocky hills rises near the banks of the Fekagit River. Atop this ridge, sprawling over a dozen square miles, the ruins of the City of Lolok balance precariously on the stones above the jungle canopy’s tallest heights. Of unknown age and unknown cultural origin, it more than any other city in the Sabo Jungles can truly claim to be a cursed place. The city appears shattered, as if an angry god tore it from its very foundations and broke it apart in antiquity. But rather than hurled across the hills, the broken pieces of the city’s walls and buildings lie piled atop each other in hundreds of impossibly tall spires. Precariously and irrationally stacked like irregular blocks, they tower above the gutted outlines of the original walls and roads, and though they have stood for untold centuries, some leaning at improbable angles, they all still stand - or rather, some force ensures that they remain miraculously stacked to the sky.
Even more disturbing than the towers is the utter and complete silence. No birdsong lilts from the distant jungle canopy, no buzzing of insects cuts the air, nor do the howls of monkeys or any other animal disturb the eerie, preternatural silence that envelops the city. The air is quiet, still, and sterile except for the creak and groan of the spires struggling against the wind and the downward pull of the earth.
Something stalks the city at night, and local tribes claim that none who spend the night within the city survive to tell the tale. Their bodies are found the next day, crushed to pulp against the city’s flagstones, with their belongings stacked in tiny new spires scattered across the city, or littered atop the other existing spires along with the belongings and riches of every other hapless explorer who met the same fate.
