If you're loitering in a seedy district like this you're basically begging for one of those preachers to harass you

there's no sun there's just stray lines of aurora in the sky all the time so everything is always dark always and seedy districts like this are only ever lit by tavern lights good luck with the street lights who wants street lights it makes it harder for pickpockets and muggers to work and where do they drink that's right the seedy bars so that's a lot of incentive to lobby against it you know

i mean the bars can be owned at the top by the rich too you know they get the money it's a trickle-up economy in the Bread Kingdom you have the poor rob from the tourists and that gets even MORE money in the economy
