I had half an idea for a multi-parter floating about that involved a doomed war between the Undercity and the city above... had Prager or someone like him as Chief Judge of the Undercity and King of the Big Smelly... he'd start every month with a death combat for rulership. You'd have this wierd feudal structure that was dying because the city above was concreting over all the manholes they used to scavenge, and this wierd honour thing meant they had to go to war even if they were slaughtered... you'd have this ideological conflict between the judges who'd been down there long enough to go native and keep the peace by the laws of the Undercity, and the newbie narrator who'd just taken the hike down there.
Anyway, now I'm cannibalising that idea for spares! Har har! Watch it squeal as I ripe out its liver... that will make a tasty scene in a future shock!
