Oh, and that’s toxic, so don’t stay in it too long.
As if that wasn’t enough, segments of the town are covered in a red mist called The Cloud. The town itself is a red-coated nightmare, inhabited by horrendous Ghost People who are not only difficult to kill, but, clad in dark outfits and glowing green eyes, a bit pants-shittingly scary.
