Points of interest
Dockwork Cranes:
Another marvel of Arcanotech, the docks here are equipped with large clockwork cranes that make the moving of goods off of ships far easier than normal cranes. Powered by the local Aether in the area rather than normal gear tech of Gnomes, it reduces the man power and people needed to quickly move cargo off of ships and into the town. The Tradewind Alliance has displayed great interest in the technology, but due to the materials and the constant rusting, it always needs repairs.
Brownspek Market:
Because this is major port between Machina and the Tradewind Alliance, there are a large amount of goods that come through this area that are coming or going from the major trade center of Moirai. As such, while not quite the same quality of market as in Sundew, there is a market of traveling goods here within the port. Many traders view this as a good stepping stone to working up to the Alliance.
Displacer problem:
The town of Rustport has had a problem with the native displacers for a couple of decades now. For some reason that can’t be fully explained, displacer beasts that are native to the Pale jungle seem oddly attracted to the town. Increase security has made sure that traders and travelers are able to get to the capital if needed, but it has been increasingly more and more of and issue. So much so the local noble is considering clearing large portions of the jungle around the town to increase safety.Architecture
The town is a colored with browns and pale whites due to the mix of rusting iron and the jungle trees that give a white wood they use for the buildings themselves. The buildings of the port tend to be a mix of log cabins and gnomish more boxish designs, which tends to have inter-stacking and angular boxes, the angles of the buildings coming from metal supports on corners. This gives the town of a feeling of being both a rugged and industrial setting, especially the actual docks that connect to the Misty Seas.
