Lemurian Economy

Food Service Industry
A popular chain of restaurants is called McWendy King. It is famous for its beloved chicken nuggets.

However, the excesses allowed by the quintessence engines became noticeable as food was wasted. For example, there is a cliff whose based is stacked tall with waffles, allowing people to safely leap from the clifftop into the fluffy waffles below. Pundits pointed to this as the moment people realized that the post-scarcity economy had some very odd, and troubling, side effects.

Education
There are schools in Lemuria where students can learn magic and technology, and some space for people to conduct their own research. Those researchers are able to be supported by scholarships.

Industry
Fishing is a traditional industry on the coast. The work has been disrupted by early signs of the ecological disaster that is facing the continent.

Black Market
There is crime in Lemuria. There are documented instances of confidence schemes that have lost people or businesses significant sums.
