Foothills District
The district of the Foothills...

The foothills are a rural district. They border the Hill Topper, Salt , Stone , Shoreline , Furrier and Clay  Districts. They are located in the northern end of Filth and the North Gate opens up into the Foothills district. Named after the geography of the district, the foothills lie just west of the mountains in which lie Jape pass and the Queen’s Chasm. Fisher’s road runs from the Foothills District north to Seaside and eventually to the Northern Cities.

Quote
“Districts through which they hiked to circumnavigate the Cliffs District had a different feel than the densely populated streets of central Filth. Dirt roads. No cobbles. The thatch-roofed homes were set apart from each other, with white wisps curling up from their smoke-holes to streak the moon with hazy lines, turning its silver surface to a wrinkled old man’s face frowning down at Flora’s follies. There were animals, but only subsistence livestock—milkers, laying hens, sheering sheep—all of them closely guarded. Sturdy farm boys stood sentry with axes or bows outside of barns or sat on rooftops to watch for foxes and common thieves—a testament to the lean times. Hamm narrated their journey, explaining that the herds of years past were empty fields now—all the animals meant for eating had been sold off in Filth as shortages strangled the city.”
