## Layout of the Kingdom

The kingdom is divided by "Rings" which serve as a way to separate different business sectors and to effectively spread resources. This however creates an inadvertent divide in the wealth there is in each ring. There are four rings total: the outer ring, middle ring, moat, and inner ring.

### The Outer Ring

The outer ring deals with businesses that require more manual labor then others such as weapon/armor smiting and import/export traders. The buildings in this ring are cubic, varying in sizes and decorated with colorful red and blue banners that signify family sigils and local business logos. Guidance's clinic and Captain Tempest's junkyard are found within the outer ring. The districts located in this ring are as followed:

### The Moat

The moat is an area between the middle ring and the palace consisting of pure desert. Within this area a very large sandworm lives protecting the walls of the palace. The only way to travel between the middle ring and the inner ring is to traverse through the underground tunnels the lay under the sands of the moat. These ancient tunnels were formed by the parent of the current sandworm many years ago and span all across the island. Many of these tunnels are uncharted and too dangerous to travel through.

### The Inner Ring

The inner ring, also known as the palace, is the innermost ring which contains the homes and businesses of the nobility and other influential citizens. This ring contains many of the same kind of business located in all the other rings, however they are up scaled in value and quality to reach the standards of the area.
