How intense is trade between Shadow Absalom and Absalom?
How Shadow Absalom is provided with food (considered its considerable population)?
Is it produced locally (but I can’t se how, since without daylight, I imagine magic mushroom and other stuff can provide food just for a dent of the tens of thousand of resident humanoids)?
Or is daily traded from Portals?
Does it come mostly from Material Plane Absalom? In that case they must trade heavily on a daily basis, if so, is there a permanently open portal between Absalom and Shadow Absalom? (If it is) who is responsible to keep that portal? Absalom or Shadow Absalom Government? Or a private Guild? Is this portal one of those mentioned in Distant Realms, big enough to let the Dragon Ruler of Shadow Absalom pass?
Is this portal inside the walls of both cities? How both are sure no invasion comes from the other city?
In what kind of relationship are Shadow Absalom and Absalom Governments?
In the event of a Siege of Absalom (if it’s is main supplier) how Shadow Absalom take supplies of food?
Given the fact Shadow Absalom has little local resources but a huge population (for pathfinder standards) it must be a trade hub and since it does little trade between Shadow Golarion location it must be an Inerplanar Trade Hub. What other places are permanently linked to Shadow Absalom (besides Absalom)?
Other important inputs to imagine Shadow Absalom as a trade hub? (Good for a PG that is starting a trade business with and throughout Shadow Absalom)
