Canal Gate District

    If Mist Town holds the bulk of common merchants, the Canal Gate District holds the better part of foreign dealers and commodity brokers. The Market Plaza at the center of the district is clotted with booths and kiosks devoted to exotic foreign wares. Men and women hawk imports from the Realms and rare goods from the depths of the Hundred Kingdoms. More than a few are Guildsmen, and the goods they sell are not always of strictly legal provenance, albeit the careful eye of the market watch keeps such illicit exchanges subtle and discreet. Even more business goes on amid the teashops and pleasure gardens that fringe the plaza, with businessmen trading ownership of shiploads worth of goods left securely stored in dockside warehouses. Such traders might sell more in a casual trade of markers than the hawkers outside will sell in a year of shouting.

    The Canal Gate itself is a more modest portal than its North Gate sibling. Boatmen throng the rooming-houses near the gate itself, cheap and passably clean accomodations for men accustomed to the hard life of canal work here in the wild East. The teahouses seldom see their company- it is the sprinkling of rough bars and knocking shops near the gates that draw the greater part of their silver.
