Is Hashan Floating?
How come there's no Hashan discussion yet?

The stars twinkle in the clear night sky. A great wall surrounds the city of Hashan, which lies to the south, a mighty city that rises above an eerie wasteland far below. The rock upon which the city stands is solid, unlike the drifting sections of earth that connect it to the road some distance to the north. Upheld by some unseen force, the floating islands are littered with cobblestones that, in some places, remain connected to each other, keeping nearby masses close. Foot travel across the shifting surface is precarious but possible, and even wheeled carts can be moved from one side of the Sunderlands to the other with the aid of an experienced driver. A tribal totem has been implanted in the ground.
I don't know if I'm impressed or confused or disappointed now.
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
A barren wasteland.
An unnatural, blue-tinged fog swirls around your feet. The bright sun shines down, blanketing you with its life-giving warmth. Chunks of marble in various colours, fragments of statues broken by great force, litter the surroundings. Cliffs more than a hundred feet high enclose the Sunderlands, casting it in shadow for all but the middle hours of the day. The walls are riddled with cracks and crevices, some large enough to be caves, though darkness is all that can be seen. Broken slabs of rock jut upwards from the ground like spearheads, jabbing at the sky with their jagged tips, and deep cracks split the dry earth underfoot, a cold breeze drifting up through the caliginous openings. Small rocks and clumps of earth drift aimlessly through the air, suspended by some unseen power.
Shadowed wasteland.

The map is something like a circle. I can't say whether or not they're floating as there's no outright "Hashan is floating" anywhere, but if not being surrounded by a spectre-infested moat is pretty cool too.
The only thing I noticed floating about the structure were the various stones listed in the description, and the bridge connecting Porta Aquila to the north road.

Which way will it go? Floating city? Or will it crash down and break through the earth, possibly flipping on the way down, and become an underground city immersed in permanent night? (Upside-down city?? sick) How will enormous crystals inevitably become involved??? I welcome these new developments.
Best of luck Hashan, very intrigued to see where you guys go!
That love soon might end You are unbreaking
And be known in its aching Though quaking
Shown in this shaking Though crazy
Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...

It did just get waaaay sexier though.
It's just kind of hard at times, working with less people, and less experienced people compared to the rest of the game.
Still though, they are putting in some really hard work trying to accomplish this.
Let the haters hate. It won't be long before they find their head on a pike.
A network of underground tunnels populated by thievs/underground market. Could be pretty awesome!
Edit: Also very fitting for Hashan! Darkness/Thieves

Llozuth the Spider Queen: y/n?
Underdark: y/n?
permanent night within city limits: y/n?
Victorian architecture and gas lampposts: y/n?
secret Nelbennir brain pool: y/n?
It would definitely give a buff to Atavians but I think rings of flying sales would skyrocket.
