Profile

Floating atop a massive gilded steal turbine is a grand island of plateaued farmland. a variety of vineyards, orchards, and grain fields make up the majority of the land that flies at the center of this floating archipelago. Surrounding this central farmland is a network of attached artificially built islands that house the actual infrastructure and buildings where people mostly live. Each island connected to the central landscape also have a smaller turbines underneath them that keep the structure afloat. the whole structure is connected by a complex lattice work of bridges. Some are large ridged structures of steal/concrete while others are rope bridges, just depending on how large they are. The center island is sparsely populated with small buildings that manage the farms on the islands. the Largest structure on the central island is the Conclave of Governance, a glass and gold structure that hangs off the edge of the island that gives people inside a panoramic view of all above and below them. It is here That Union and Plebian representatives conduct governmental processes.

Story

Seat of industry. Accidentally lifted itself into the air and now sails the Lustauric Sphere. They made it their quest to spread the knowledge they discovered. Center of the city is farm land with the man made islands floating around it being the centers of industry. The turbines play off of Lustacarrens going down to terrafirma and stays aloft by the Lusticrates going up.

Looks like a spider web -The Subterhelm: the factory that upkeeps the central Turbine and pilots the city -Obsious Market: a tall obsidian glass spire that expands above and below the city. When the city lowers to the planet surface, the spire is the only part of the city that makes contact with the ground. Most folks not riding flying machines must enter or leave the city through the Obsious Market. -Lustauric Marina: the eastern edge of the Steal Weave has several steal and concrete bridges that end in mid air. Flying contraptions can dock on these bridges allowing city to ground access to anyone with access to a flying machine. -The Trapeze Quarter: The city's equivalent of stowaways. A small collection of hanging buildings and bridges just beneath the city suspended by wires and poles jerry-rigged to the Steal Weave -Fabricator's guild: folks who turn raw material into construction grade material -Money changers guild: bankers and diplomats who are well studied in all currencies. def no money laundering here
