Dusk

Overview

Dusk is a city in Caer Esvander with a population of approximately 2,000 inhabitants. Built beneath the floating buttresses of Caer Esvander, it is a high-altitude town perpetually shrouded in the mists of the Undersea.

Architecture

Troglodyte dwellings coexist with pontoons and Aerolith buildings. Living there means getting used to the constant creaking of ropes, the gentle swaying of the rocks that form a ceiling obscuring the sky, and above all, enduring the vertigo of a high-altitude existence—almost never seeing the maritime floor far below.

Economy

Dusk is primarily a small fishing port, but it has also become a maintenance hub for Mistbreakers when they travel along the Sundström Route that connects Utval to the capital.

The Ouroboros

The Ouroboros docks at Dusk once a year to resupply and undergo repairs.

Maritime Significance

Dusk remains an almost obligatory stopover point on the Sundström Route, the maritime channel connecting Suspira to Arkaster through the Undersea.
