The Palladium Reef is a dangerous area in South-East Qud — an abandoned arcology flooded by the waters of Lake Hinnom, overgrown by coral and inhabited by strange lifeforms. Svardym are common, as in the lake, but are joined by greater threats such as the swift 
galgallim and 
sultan crocs who can dismember the player.
On the surface, a tangle of 
palladium struts obscure the vision but do not block weapons fire. These are overgrown by coral polyps which are automatically plucked away as the player walks by; this act has a small chance of revealing a 
swollen bulb of 
sunslag.
coral chutes descend to the inner reef, which extends for five levels beneath the surface before yielding to ordinary subterranean caves.
