Zen is a region/town in [[Carbon]]. It is close to [[Varathia|Olendar]] and [[CivCorp]]. Zen is known for its theocracy and massive 'hexes' - giant hexagonal structures used for events and rituals.

The town proper contains a horse shop-Horsin' Around, and a massive map of the main continent which is currently up for auction.
The most populated "hex" is in the South-East known as "Dirich". Dirich currently contains the majority of the homes and shops of the populous.

The south east hex incorporates a circular village which works like the slices of a cake- its buildings are built like hubs and spokes. At the central ring of the circle are commercial developments and the outer ring is more residential.
