Golgoth

Golgoth is a large lake of grey sludge along the southern edge of the great salt waste, forming the northern boundary of the uncharted and endlessly thundering desert that stretches far to unexplored southern latitudes. It is inhabited by Golgothans, an octopus-like people who crawl and swim through the sludge with ease on six muscular tentacles. Perched high over the lake is a massive palace known as The Gilded Stilt, where Golgothakan, the king of the Golgothans, holds his court. Stretching between the bottom of the high palace and the black surface of the lake itself is a sprawling undercity known as The Stack, a confusion of scaffolds and buildings whose unplanned and ceaseless construction has knitted them together permanently.
