Fugue (settlement)

Fugue, also called the Fugue Plane, was a tent city in Vaasa near the Vaasan Gate. It was a place of death, desperation, and hopelessness, hence it was named for the Fugue Plane.

Description
Fugue was little more than a massive ramshackle camp of poverty-stricken refugees. The conditions in the tent city were crowded and filthy, and death was a common occurrence.

Geography
Fugue sat on the northern banks of the Beaumaris River in the western shadow of the Vaasan Gate at the entrance to Bloodstone Pass.

History
When the Warlock Knights seized Bloodstone Pass and sealed the Vaasan Gate in 1470 DR, Vaasan refugees fleeing from the Knights' war of conquest gathered nearby in hopes of being saved by Damara. By 1480 DR, no help had come and the population had swelled to approximately 2,000 desperate souls living in squalor.
