General / Re: Confused about Protectorate access to Lower Underrail (spoilers)

Could be that Upper Underrail, if it is as expansive as Lower Underrail (i.e. much more than what is shown in the game), doesn't follow the layout of Lower Underrail and the way between North and South is a lot longer there than it is on the lower level. Or perhaps the northern parts of Upper Underrail are so dangerous that even the Protectorate doesn't want/isn't able to use it as a regular supply route due to attrition. This is obviously pure speculation, but if Biocorp had any part in the apocalyptic event that forced humans to Underrail in the first place, the surface might be chock-full of things that make the local flora and fauna in Deep Caverns pale in comparison, some of which might have found their way to Upper Underrail. After all, it is at least a little closer to the surface.
