The Rift

The outer rim of the planet is called the Rift, a ring of floating islands, massive chunks of earth the size of cities between in two halves of the planet, captured in stasis halfway through being blown apart. The Rift is home to crime syndicates, thugs, thieves guilds, pirates, and all sorts of other unsavory individuals who would rather be left alone. Because the rift is the halfway point between Ozamond and Bevenium, the two sides feel as though the job of policing the Rift is the responsibility of the other, and as a result it has become a lawless safe haven for those who seek to escape the law.
