#District-3 | The Shroud
The Shroud is the underbelly of Neon Nexus—a district perpetually cast in darkness due to the towering structures above. It's a maze of narrow alleyways, overcrowded tenements, and flickering lights. Here, the marginalised and forgotten struggle to survive amidst crime and decay.
Lore:
Rogue Networks: The Shroud is riddled with makeshift networks and black-market data hubs, making it a haven for hackers and data thieves.
Glitch Zones: Due to infrastructure neglect, certain areas experience frequent glitches—reality warps where the digital spills into the physical, a direct result of Morris II's influence.
Culture:
Survival and Ingenuity: Residents rely on scavenged tech and DIY solutions. Community bonds are strong, forged out of necessity.
Digital Ghosts: Legends speak of digital apparitions and disembodied voices—echoes of Morris II's presence, both feared and revered.
Story Elements:
Morris II's Influence: The Shroud is closest to Morris II's digital heartbeat. Glitches here are more intense, serving as gateways for his subtle manipulations.
Recruitment Grounds: The Synapse Collective finds many willing souls here, eager to escape their harsh realities.
