Experiments on test subjects with VISORAK allowed the Ghosts to examine a wide variety of mutations they never could’ve imagined, and if a discovery was made with a particular mutation, it’d be studied, analyzed, and potentially even replicated and enhanced if considered potent enough. Waves of Bio-Weapons were designed after curious Visorak mutations, with those altered by the virus dubbed as ‘Vorox’. Intelligent, biomechanical spiders loyal to the Nynrah Ghosts, with a penchant for hunting and an immunity to Visorak, were designed to carry the venom within their fangs and inject it into victims.

           The Nynrah Ghosts initially operated discretely and illegally, sending their Visorak Spiders out to capture Xians and animals in the dark of night and deliver them to labs, where they’d be cocooned and injected with nutrients to help facilitate a mutation. Some Vorox were too damaged by their mutations to emerge from their cocoons, and were deemed failures and thrown amongst the bio-waste. Those that did emerge would be stunned and paralyzed by the Visorak spiders’ Rhotuka, to be properly contained and studied by the Nynrah Ghosts.

           Horrific experiments continued as usual, until one day, an incident happened. A Xian Heart was detonated, and while the exact details behind the accident are uncertain, it led to the destruction of a facility as various Bio-Weapons escaped and fled out into the surrounding district of Nynrah. Civilians were attacked, and rogue Visorak spiders fled, forming into packs to hunt and mutate as they pleased and desired.

           The Vahki were sent in to contain the incident, but more accidents began to happen, a chain-of-events, a horrific butterfly effect. Vorox accessed the water supply, dying as Visorak leaked into the waterways and was spread throughout Nynrah’s various canals, contaminating the water supply. This was only worsened when another facility was damaged and breached, and Visorak and other Viruses were released into Nynrah’s drinking water, with disastrous results; Many Xian residents were horrifically transformed, with some dying from the mutations, and others becoming destructive monsters devoid of conscious thought, acting only on murderous instinct.

           A few airborne plagues were accidentally released as the damage worsened. Riots ensued as Dume, Xia’s Head of Security, attempted to instate a mandatory quarantine and curfew, only for citizens to get infected anyway. Xian corporations focused on protecting their stocks over providing for those trapped in their homes, and resources dwindled as citizens became desperate. Xians fought over the remaining supply of food and clean, bottled water, even as Vahki violently suppressed riots and Vorox and other Bio-Weapons began to overtake Nyrnah. Mutations were spreading rapidly, and at this rate, it seemed almost the entirety of Nynrah’s water supply was infected.

           Chaos and anarchy began to descend as monsters and outbreaks spread out. The Nynrah Ghosts desperately attempted to quell the damage, but it only worsened as rival gangs and crimelords fought one another openly and deployed powerful weapons of destruction, including another few Xian Hearts. The Nynrah District began to actively collapse as cities burned and mobs of infected monsters roamed about.

           Dume became desperate to contain the incident, and announced a mandatory quarantine of the entire Nynrah District. Although some citizens managed to escape Nynrah before it was fully enstated, far too many were instead trapped when the Vahki erected massive, towering walls that surrounded the entire district. The coast was sealed off with giant Sea Gates to prevent the leakage of Visorak, mutagens, and other Viruses into the ocean surrounding Xia itself. Any and all travel from Xia was completely banned, and anyone and anything, from Vorox, to Bio-Weapons and Visorak spiders, and even uninfected Xians, that came too close to the border would be shot on sight by the Vahki, with stun staffs set to lethal.

           The horrific series of accidents, outbreaks, and the utter collapse of what was once the most prosperous Xian district, would later become dubbed the Nynrah Incident. The district was almost completely sealed-off, with heavy protection in the form of battalions, turrets, and even a few artillery cannons stationed along the walls. Entry and exit from Nynrah was expressly-forbidden by Dume.

           Those Xians trapped inside had a few options, most of them unpleasant. Some were outright skilled; Others were mutated. Some continued living cutthroat lives, gathering into groups and competing with one another for resources, while fending off rogue Vorox and roaming Visorak spiders.

           As for the Nynrah Ghosts? Most of them operated relatively safely from the underground safety of their bunkers and more secure facilities, examining the situation through cameras. And while some were horrified by what happened, others… Were interested.

           Because you see, it now appeared that they could examine in witness, in real-time, exactly how many of their horrific inventions and Bio-Weapons would function on the field. The Nynrah Incident yielded valuable, precious combat data on the effectiveness of some Bio-Weapons, of Visorak’s potency, and provided countless fascinating mutations for the Ghosts to study. When the district became quarantined, the Vahki effectively abandoned the region, interested only in regulating passage into and from Nynrah; Everything within the borders was essentially lawless.

           And because of this, the Nynrah Ghosts had free impunity to openly operate, sending out Bio-Weapons onto the surface to test their effectiveness, having Visorak Spiders kidnap Xians to experiment on, and even openly testing inventions on the remaining civilians, in broad daylight. Yes, it was a lawless, chaotic environment and post-apocalypse wasteland… But to Trydahk and his Nynrah Ghosts, the incident was a blessing in disguise.

           For just about everyone else, however, it was the end of the world, and even the end of one’s life. Amidst the roaming Vorox and escaped Bio-Weapons of various sizes and lethality, some maintained or even gained sapience and gathered into tribes, fighting over resources and tending to one another.

           As of now, the Nynrah District consists of ruined, post-apocalyptic cities, long in disrepair. Mutant Vorox roam the streets, and the water supply has long been infected and contaminated. Most uninfected Xians come from outside the district; It is not uncommon for powerful Xians to get rid of those they are displeased with, by having them exiled into Nynrah as a death sentence of sorts. Likewise, while the Vahki are ordered to guard the walls, they are more concerned with keeping things in Nynrah, than keeping others out of it; And with bribes and deals from the Nynrah Ghosts, a ready-supply of Xians can be transported within the district to be tested on, or released onto the surface for ‘field studies’.

           The canals have long-since been clouded with sludge, viruses, and various other pollutants, and unimaginable monstrosities dwell within them and the sewers. In one area of Nynrah is the Botana Forest, a jungle of mutated trees and flora that hosts massive Bio-Weapons and other Vorox. Often, if the Nynrah Ghosts are unhappy with a Bio-Weapon, they will either recycle its flesh and mechanical components, or else just let it loose onto the surface to do as it pleases. Acid rains are not uncommon, burning away at those unfortunate to be caught inside, and the storms can get powerful and intense, further spreading infectious substances throughout Nynrah. In some rivers and lakes, boats and cruise ships drift afloat, overtaken by Vorox.

           Vorox and Xians scavenge for remaining resources, such as leftover components from a Vahki hive, radio parts, discarded weapons and ammunition, and so on and so forth. The infected are unafraid of feasting on other Vorox, even sapient ones, for survival is dangerous and brutal. Some areas leak brutal, burning radiation, while others spew poisonous gases and airborne plagues. Horrifice lifeforms dwell about, hunting and stalking.

           Visorak Spiders prowl across Nynrah. While some continue to operate on the Nynrah Ghosts’ orders, others have broken free to hunt and mutate as they please, too intelligent and willful for their own good. Many of them have fallen underneath the leadership of the disgraced general Sidorak, who remains uninfected thanks to a special mask, and valiantly leads his spiders on hunts to their pleasure. Sidorak the ‘Visorak King’ and his spiders frequently come into conflict with Vorox clans, including ones led by the exiled Glatorian Malum, or the first-generation victim Kabrua.

           Outside of Nynrah, beings considered too dangerous or ‘undesirable’ for Xia, such as others mutated by outside sources, are quickly captured and released in Nynrah. Escape is just about impossible, with the Vahki programmed to always shoot first, and then keep shooting afterwards. The walls are impossibly high, and the waters off the coast only go off for a while before being blocked off by the Sea Gates.
