Nzari is a region of warm [[jungle]] that is populated by the [[Mwele]] people. Their way of life is one governed by a rich [[religion|religious]] tradition and informal social pushes towards proper behavior rather than a set of austere formally established laws that create mandates of conduct. Before the arrival of [[Mr. Klein]], the domain was fairly isolated from the rest of the [[Land of Mists]], save perhaps for [[the Wildlands]]. This is not so say that Nzari without trouble before then, as the domain first formed through the depredations of [[Gatwe]], its first (and still one of its current) [[darklord]]<ref name=USS162>[[Undead Sea Scrolls 2003]] p.162</ref>
 
However, the arrival of Mr. Klein and his colonists made things worse. In their efforts to harvest the ivory from the elephants and copper from the mines, Mr. Klein and his [[servant]]s initiated a series of events that cascaded into [[mass murder]], [[torture]], [[maimed|maiming]]s, and all sorts of other [[abuser|abuse]]. At the end of everything, almost all of the [[foreigner]]s were [[killed]] save for Mr. Klein and a few others.<ref name=USS169-170>[[Undead Sea Scrolls 2003]] p.169-170</ref> Yet, through a system of governors picked from the native Mweles, Mr. Klein rules through terror and the threat of force.<ref name=USS162>[[Undead Sea Scrolls 2003]] p.162</ref>
