Crucible

The Crucible is located in The Bridge Square, on the West bank of The Gullet. It consists of three mansions surrounded by a high, gated wall.

It is home to the Kain family - Victor, Georgiy and Maria.

It is the closest residence to The Polyhedron and is also located close to the family tomb, where Nina Kaina is buried.

This is one of the first stops on The Bachelor's Route.
