Lore:

A select group of wealthy individuals were taken underground before they were affected by the nuclear disaster. The others, unable to afford refuge in the underground city, remained above ground. This exposed them to nuclear radiation. The radiation affected their appearances, giving them a wary beauty. They were seemingly perfect on the outside, when they were rotting on the inside. Over time, these individuals had gained immunity to the negative effects of radiation (death). They became a community, and continued to carry on living in the dangerous wasteland above ground. This community of individuals were able to thrive off of a purple radioactive substance found within a meteor. They would use this resource to create different contraptions to aid their survival. 

As for the city underground, the need for resources became more and more urgent. Eventually, this caused them to return to the hazardous surface. Once above they “discover” the community, and their resources. Wanting the resource that the meteor provided, they take advantage of the community with lies and false promises. The community unwillingly provides the city with its resources. Both collecting the purple radioactive substance from the meteor, and refining it into nonradioactive products for the city. The civilians in the underground city are aware of how they have wronged the community, but decide to stay in blissful ignorance. They don’t want to risk their health in any way, and prefer things the way they are. Even at the expense of the community.
