The area of the city known as Badwater certainly seems to live up to its reputation; few plants grow here, and those that do look stunted and sickly. Everything has a slightly<em>off</em>smell to it, and even Johanna notices it. No houses in the area are occupied, though there is one on the outskirts of the district that still looks like it has people in it. A woman is outside, hanging out clothes to dry, while her child is playing with a pile of sticks, nearby.
