Editing The Endless Wilds (section)

==Necessities==
Food is a vital concern in every settlement. Farming within the city walls is a common and effective way of producing staple foods, especially since crops grow much faster in the post-Bloom world. In the crowded Capitals, citizens with private houses usually have rooftop gardens, while apartments are usually required by law to have a garden or greenhouse on the roof. Multi-storey vertical greenhouses are also a relatively common sight, especially in cities where space is at a premium. Novice '''Hunters''' are often dispatched into the Wilds to hunt monsters and animals for meat. Sometimes these Wild creatures are dangerously infected with mana, and require curing and siphoning before they can be consumed safely. Sometimes, adventurers have to eat while on the trail and run the risk of '''Mana Sickness''', which is told to lead to much more than an upset stomach.

Water is a big concern for most settlements that are just starting out. The risk of river monsters must be balanced against the risk of thirst. Most settlements rely on cisterns and rainwater as their primary source of water. Larger cities sometimes have to use the huge underwater lakes that can be found through Dungeon exploration. '''Magineers''' lay pipe to draw water from these enormous reserves. Rivers and such can be tapped into the the same way, with Hunters clearing out any Monster threatening the pipes.
