Inej's backstory is super triggering and therefore I won't be including any of the super triggering memories in the Dreamscape! No one needs to see those in great detail. However, I do have two little "worlds" of exploration that I think would be cool!
Rafka is Inej's homeland, and something she misses terribly. Her people are largely nomadic, and she was a member of a traveling caravan of acrobats with her family before she was captured by slavers and brought to Kerch against her will. I'm not going to include the super traumatic stuff in great detail, but do you want to go to the circus? Explore the highwire? See Inej's family? Or gain some insight into how horrible her world is when her (largely oppressed) people have to hop from place to place to avoid getting kidnapped? This is the spot for you!
Kerch (more specifically, the city of Ketterdam) is where Inej currently lives ( . . . sort of) and is the home of her gang of miscreants, The Dregs. There are quite a few places in Kerch that have mixed emotions for Inej, but she lives in the Barrel, which is where all the thieves and dregs (ha ha ha) of society hang out. You will probably get hustled and pickpocketed while you are wandering around here, and you can also come by the Crow Club to gamble, drink, and get robbed totally blind. There are also some other areas in Ketterdam that are of great importance (both negative and positive) to Inej -- the Menagerie, the escort/brothel where she was an indentured (forced) servant (which you can walk past, but Inej will immediately prevent you from actually going in there); the White Rose, where her best friend Nina used to work before they decided to break into the Ice Court; and the various canals/docks of Ketterdam where the Dregs hold territory.
If you're canon familiar and want something specific, let me know! Or if you want something positive, negative, also let me know! I'll be writing out general descriptions for her. :)
