Medical Mechanica is something of a mystery on Twisted both before and after the Unification. What is known is that their local base of operations rests on the shores of Lake Emepherea in the form of a giant iron-shaped building which randomly produces steam at odd hours. The building has a hallway which goes around its base with no doors into the interior. Randomly a representative of MM will make an appearance to talk about how the company is helping people somehow, or to speak of a new innovation, but beyond that there is nothing.

Following the Twisted Street past the random houses to the west of the center leads you to a small shopping district just on the edge of the wastelands. For those that know their history, the wastelands where once a major part of the city of Twisted before the entire area (and its people) where lost during one of the last big conflicts. Neighboring on that edge has left the properties here cheap and some of the establishments have been known to change hands frequently.

According to [[New_Unified_Twisted_History|the New Unified History of Twisted]] the Wastelands where created when hordes of undead creatures where banished to another plane of existence by [[:Category:Twisted_Council|Twisted's original Council]] taking with them miles of the city and many of its innocent people. Bordering between the chaos that surrounds the planet and the influence of [[Gegoshi|Gegoshi's]] stabilization, the Wastelands are a dumping ground of random bits of connected worlds which flicker between realities creating a harsh environment that eventually crushes those structures to dust. As such very few things exist in the Wastelands which can be considered landmarks. For this reason powerful spells where cast which eventually deposit anyone unlucky enough to get lost in them back onto Twisted Street.

[[File:Cemetary_Lane|right|150px]]

More of a description than a name, this road turns towards and into a massive cemetary. It's as if the collective worlds that cross Twisted have converged here to bury their dead. It seems to go on and on. Every so often, the odd pairing of a street lamp and a bench in front of the fence seem to be the only decorations. Even from here, a large cherry tree is visible within the gates of the cemetary. Somehow such a sign of life seems oddly inappropriate.

Putting the wastelands behind you and traveling east from the city center brings you closer to the bay. The air smells better, the temperature is cooler, and occasionally a seagull passes overhead. It's no surprise that the main government of Twisted has been set up here. On the Northern side of the street the Pantheon called the Town Hall rests beside the local clinic. The opposite side of the street sits a convenience store known as the 24*7, and along the side of it is the sandy path that takes you to Zeku-Kari beach.

''Here you find yourself in a strange piece of Twisted. Even with the ability to fly you can only reach this location by traveling through the Town Hall to the South. It's an unnaturally quiet courtyard surrounded by dense trees which any attempt at traveling through will quickly be found to be impossible. Bisecting the courtyard is a long walkway with several stone archways built at even intervals which direct you to the only real thing of interest here...''

'Borrowed' wholesale from The Evil Dead/Army of Darkness, the S-Mart was created to solve an important question no one was asking: Where did the people of Twisted buy clothes and/or food? Generic fake-shops are fine depending on the scene but it'd be a little weird if everyone was going to a totally random-non-existent place for their everyday shopping or buying groceries at the 24*7.

How long it's been there isn't important. It's there now, and they're slightly cheaper than everyone else by about three cents.
