Skottr Docks (Sko-tter)

The Skottr Docks, also known as the Lower Docks, are quite a bit more expansive than the Iffr Docks. The Skottr Docks are broken up into many different areas, platforms and stations and storage and offices, all controlled by different independent groups or individuals. Each one fights against the other to gain more space, but no sole faction could hope control the entirety of the Docks. None of them are able to compete against the monopoly of the Iffr Docks, but are the best option for people who have less money, or want to smuggle something in without attracting unwanted attention.
Security is almost non-existent here. The borders into the Central Spire are guarded and kept on lock, though officially these docks are branded as part of the Central Spire - they feel more like the Lesser Wards and are treated as such.
Massive constructions of cobbled-together metal expand out like a network of spiderwebs across the multiple floors of the district. People can often be seen hanging from this structure as they fix a variety of astral ships, or climbing up and down them for faster means of transport between levels.
Many have built entire mini-villages up in the air using thick industrial chains that previous belonged to out-of-commission ice barges. These platforms are mainly used to cheaply house workers while keeping them removed from the general visitors that come and go here - for everyone's safety. Each hanging structure has only one way in and out, and it's kept guarded at all times.

Important Locations

Winged Eyes Headquarters: The Winged Eyes primary location is a salvage yard along the edge of the Skottr docks, with two large hanging structures to keep everything they own away from the ground floor. They use the salvage to repair older Skottr Bikes which are able to travel between different districts. They've modified the area with larger bodies and massive holding bays on the side, a smuggler's dream: now, not everything has to go through the labyrinth of tunnels in the Endless Expanse.
Ice Barge Port: The main reason why the Skottr Docks are allowed to operate as they please is because the central portion of the district houses a large group of the Court of Water's soldiers, protecting the largest dock in the area. The ice barges bring huge payloads of resources multiple times a day, employing thousands of people to move the frozen water from barge to transport to be sent to the city proper for melting, purification, and redistriubtion. Though some of those same workers have been seen getting dragged away screaming, skin turning purple or black...but no one can risk losing their high-paying, secure job by asking questions about such matters.
