Slaver's Auction House & Compound [35 x 24]
This is a walled compound containing an Auction House and a more sinister lower level. Dealing in all manner of commodities, including people, this map can potentially serve as many things:
> A front for a thieves' guild.
> A gathering of cultists.
> A powerful and wealthy adversary within the city.
> The location of a captured/imprisoned relative, friend of person of interest.
> A location players must go to procure a necessary item that then presents a moral dilemma once they learn its true nature.
