Sigil - The City of Doors -- The Bird Cage

Overview: "You look lost, sirrah. Walk with me through the murky twilight for a moment and I'll teach you the dark of things - that'd be the secrets, for a clueless traveler like yourself. Mind you don't brush against the grime; there's lots of soot-stained walls here. Now, sir prime, look up. Makes you dizzy, don't it, seeing the city of Sigil above you? See, living in an impossible city ain't always simple. You need a guide. That'll be twelve silvers.

"Oh, those fellows? Dabus. They speak to each other with those illusions. They're servants of the Lady of Pain, who rules the City of Doors and keeps it safe. — No, I don't mind the questions. — It's called the City of Doors 'cause it's the center of the multiverse, or leastways, a body can get anywhere from here through the city's portals. It's also called the Cage. Why? "Sigil's a cage for everyone: for the celestials, for the fiends, for the tieflings and the Clueless, and for the Lady. That's why the cutters who set their cases... uh, their homes - in Sigil call themselves Cagers.
