Northwest Docks

This is the cleanest and most well-ordered wharf on its side of the river. (This isn't saying much - there's still enough rats and fish guts to feed a goblin army.) It's primarily used by small vessels carrying import items from Unicorn territory and light cargoes (silk, spices, sake, some pottery) north on the return journey. Because this dock is not very deep, larger barges (such as those used for rice and timber) cannot easily dock here. Because it specializes in more expensive items (and sometimes items that are easier to slip under a kimono and steal), the warehouses nearby are in better shape than most in theQuarter. In addition to the guards hired by the captains or merchants, the Moment'sEdge Firemen are often tipped handsomely to make sure no fires occur in these warehouses. Merchants willing to accept some pilfering prefer to eliminate the middleman and hire the kajinin as guards. (All they ask is that the Firemen do their stealing before the tax assessors visit.
