The Shipyards

Deep-draft merchant ships and longships or warships are built in Sitrium. Many of the buildings on the water in Sitrium are dedicated to shipbuilding as well as housing and event sores. In addition, the beach is suitable for the construction of large ships, both warships and commercial vessels. Merchants who come to the village do so to secure a supply of timber. Every craftsman in the city dedicated to shipbuilding improves his/her techniques and is instructed as an engineer to give the best advances to the ship they produce.
The city has a tremendously industrious character and is always bustling with activity in its workshops. The most famous shipyards of Sitrium are undoubtedly those of the master Posilion, descendant of the family of the mythical Callaphe. According to legend and Callapheia herself, the Monsoon was built here. Many great lords seek the prestige of the shipyard to give their ships a touch of Callaphe's glory. Another shipyard, famous for the speed and maneuverability of its small sailing ships, is that of Thiro "the skillful", an elderly man reputed to know stories of distant islands that he himself claims to have reached with his ships.
