Layout:

 
  • Fields
    • As far as the eye can see, punga fruit fields, tended to by all sorts of people with crude clothing.
    • Though mosquitoes and disease are endemic to the region (not to mention monsters too) the inhabitants are almost completely ignored or unaffected
    • The workers stagger about unfocused, as if drunk, but focus and regain dexterity as soon as it comes time to use hand-eye coordination...
  • Church Complex
    • Four buildings: Sunday school area, kitchens/storeroom, dormitories, and cathedral.
    • Sunday school area is home to trading post and robot repair bay. 
    • Dormitories are mixed sex. No children live here, the inhabitants are all recruited from elsewhere. Some inhabitants are completely or partially incapable of caring for themselves, Robobrains care for them
    • Cathedral is partially overgrown by nature, vines from the walls growing punga fruit, though recently a holographic emitter was installed on the ceiling
  • Church Basement
  • Forests
    • This is a sacred place to the people there.
  • Hidden Facility
    • In one of the many caverns in the area is an elevator, with treadmarks leading up to it.
