The Chitinous Mandate — Locations

Zones

The Resin Quarter

A humming labyrinth of resin refineries and armor-forges, where ant-engineers sculpt elephant-scale carapaces under bioluminescent fungus-lamps.

The Mandible Precinct

The bureaucratic heart of Myrmecopolis, where elephant magistrates stamp decrees with their feet while ant clerks file them in hexagonal vaults.

The Verdant Barracks

A fortified grove where elephant-soldiers train to crush dissent while ant battalions drill in synchronized pheromone maneuvers.

Sporemarket

A bustling fungal bazaar where information-spores are traded like currency, and black-market mycelium dealers lurk in capillary alleys.

The Chrysalis Cloisters

A meditation district where both species contemplate metamorphosis—ants in wax cocoons, elephants under silk-canopies woven from mulberry defiance.
