Lykos Common

Lykos Common functions as the primary communal square in the Red mining village of Lykos, equipped with gallows, long tables, and HC screens for mandatory public assemblies. First referenced in the opening volume of the Red Rising Saga, the space anchors the daily rituals and brutal justice of the underclass before expanding in significance during Golden Son as a stage for Golds to broadcast edicts and carry out spectacles of control. Across the series it transforms from a quiet village hub into a recurring emblem of Red subjugation that later hosts moments of defiance and remembrance, underscoring the saga’s themes of rebellion and memory.
