The Outer Ring is a region located on the outskirts of New Eridu.
Overview[]
The Outer Ring is notorious for its wild nature, due to falling outside of New Eridu's purview, as well as having various biker gangs and outlaws running rampant in the area. Outer Ring inhabitants do not mine Ether resources for their technology and instead opt to use oil as their main resource. Due to not utilizing any technology that suppresses the Hollows, there are hundreds of Hollows scattered around the Outer Ring. Despite the lawless nature of the Outer Ring, authority over the area is held through the Motor League, which is responsible for keeping the oil industry running, as well as assigning transport routes to biker gangs. The leader of the Motor League, dubbed the Overlord, is selected through the Tour de Inferno.[1] The events of Season 1 Chapter 4 mainly take place in the Outer Ring.
Locations[]
- Blazewood
- Old Oil Field — An area with oil pumps scattered around the ground. Petroleum is constantly being pumped out of the ground for the Outer Ring to utilize.
- Cinderglow Lake — A lake of burning oil situated inside a Hollow. It was originally a deep drilling facility until a Hollow disaster made it collapse, eventually forming into a lake. As the sources of oil in the Hollow were constantly being exposed to Ether, the pumps often encountered issues with Etheric matter seeping through the pumps, ruining the shallow oil reserves, but due to the burning gas from the lake, it prevented the Etheric matter from spreading further down. The legend behind the Tour de Inferno was caused by a stable Hollow Fissure located in the center of the lake.
