Lane of Black Magic 
  You feel the chill of the grave upon you, as coldness seems to seep from
the black stone beneath your feet into your body.  The street is lined
with crucifixes, evenly spaced on each side of the street.  The corpses
on the cruxifixes seem rather fresh, and every now and then, one of them
quivers, whether from the wind, or something unseen.  Off in the distance
lies the majesty of the Imperial Palace.
