Market District

Market District
The district of trade...

“The city is struggling. Filth debts are going unpaid. Ships full of produce sit idle and rot across the Narrows while the bones of lesser city folk begin to show through their skins. Empty stalls dot the once bustling Market District. There are calls for Filth to send its own ships directly to the island orchards and grain fields, but others are building better ships, and Filth can’t take to sea with its inferior vessels—pirates and Islander merchants sink them with their powerful rams as soon as they venture into the Narrows. Carpenter’s brilliant ingenator has a design for a new ship, but it requires massive single-timbered keels from the tuftor trees only Strata could provide. And Strata is not cutting trees. It is a conunrum of the highest order.”

The Market District lies next to the Glass District, Jeweler District, Carpenter District, The Mills, River District, and Spice District. It borders Boundary Bay, and merchants from all of the districts use the Market District to peddle their goods with overseas travelers.
