Sinkshore

Beyond the Tidewall stands a town made of flotsam, build upon long stilts or stranded wrecks. Smoke drifts from chimneys, figures move about, and ships are tied to buildings. The wood is encrusted with barnacles and shells, and you quickly see why as the tide sets in, covering this shallow beach. The tide batters the houses, but despite their looks they keep standing.

^{Slum borough, seclusive,self-regulating, no guard presence.}
Sinkshore is located in the west of Hightide, and is one of the more recent additions. It is located on a beach fully swallowed by the surf during high tide, and is bordered by the Tidewall. Flotsam, wood, and other things have been scavenged to build up an impromptu village, with constructs ranging from floating buildings anchored by rope and chain, to buildings build on stilts that look on the thin side. Its inhabitants have formed their own community within, and actively shun outsiders.
