"Few die in Fallen London. They come here instead."

"Tomb-colonists: technically, passengers rather than goods. But you'd never know it to talk to them."

The Tomb-Colonies: home to outcasts, the generally disgraced, and of course, zombies. (Well, Fallen Londoners call them tomb-colonists, but still... they're undead.) These dreary encampments lie north of London.

Only Fallen Londoners who are in exile or who seek their Nemesis may visit the general area. However, one may become connected with tomb-colonists in London proper. Sailors of the Sunless Sea may visit the general region, but may only dock at Venderbight.

One of the industries the tomb-colonists partake in, is producing candles from their own fat.

Venderbight

"A cheerless nook in a far corner of the Neath. Known chiefly for its flowstone, its masks and its depraved bats."

Venderbight is the main tomb-colony. Fallen Londoners seeking their Nemesis may come here specifically; sailors of the Sunless Sea may drop off tomb-colonists and visit a variety of establishments here.

The First Curator...
...lives here; he/she/it - it's impossible to tell now - is likely a survivor of the fall of the Third City.  Even for a tomb-colonist, he/she/it is truly old and withered.
The Grand Sanatorium...
...is likely the largest building in the Tomb-Colonies; it is where some tomb-colonists go to waste away into nothing.  They consider this more dignified than the alternatives, such as being eaten by frost moths or dying in combat.  There is some debate over this.

What do Tomb-Colonists trade in?
