The Lees
The Lees is the world at the bottom of the murk: niello, a pure store of Murk, Lees Shells with pearls and the life of the bottom are there. The way in is a Whirlpool from a Sounding Lead in murky water. Stagnant flux does not vanish: it settles — through the flux, like silt through water, all the way down: layer upon layer, all the murk the fluxionists have spilled since the Great Stilling lies there, and the living mire on it is ground, not blight.

Structures
Great DamThe weirkeepers dammed a basin of the Lees to hold the murk itself. The eldest of them still sits on the crest under his gate; behind him the ooze stands to the brim, and below lies the dry bed they drained.
Sunken BargeA Reckoner measuring barge that sank with the murk and settled into the silt of the Lees. Its hold still keeps their crates, and its log still counts the knots of the last sounding.
Sunken HamletStilt huts of the Sunken around a pool of mire ooze. They sing to the idol in the middle and wait for the murk to settle. Whoever comes to their pool goes into it.
