			For some reason, people outside Brazil have taken note of this setting, so it is getting the [[Dungeons & Dragons]] [5th Edition] makeover.

			[[Ed Greenwood]] is top of the designer-list but there are other names we'll recognise, for better or worse - like Anthony "[[Scarred Lands]]" Pryor, Jeff "[[Manual of the Planes]]" [[Jeff_Grubb\|Grubb]] and, um, [[Skip Williams]]. But really the setting and the story were composed in Brazil, so what are those American fogeys even doing here. The fogeys got a cool two million dollars to play with, so hopefully it will not ''all'' go to strippers and cocaine. If only for their health.

			Dragori is publishing all of it or at least sticking their logo in it. The logo does look sweet.

	There's a yuuge module / [[Adventure Path]]) called ''[[Adventure in the Realms of Madness]]'', which deals with that Prison and other stuff... like the Wasteland's mist dissipating.
