Delta Edge
Defences
Wind Wards are used around the edges of the city facing the Shifting Sands. These attempts to keep the sand out are inevitably futile as the encroaching dunes continue to cover buildings slowly filling the streets. Sand Movers have been employed to recover lost land. However, this is just has helpful as bailing out a sinking ship.
The same desert that is slowly destroying Delta Edge also protects it from land based attack.

"Sand blows up against the wards casting a looming shadow on the residents below. Narrow grainy cascades pouring through developing holes in the overworked barrier... Blind eyes are turned to the numerous sketchy shops swindling unsuspecting visitors."Frequent bouts of violence occur in the streets, usually over territory, fueled by to many in too small a space. The superstitious even claim that these conflicts only encourage the dunes to press in farther citing Canyon's Curse. This rumor spreading even more after one of the wind wards finally collapsed under the strain, burying a portion of the district. Those with an ounce of moral standing work hard to escape to safer parts of the city.- excerpts from The Cursed Land of Sun and Sand found in the Wellspring Archives

Natural Resources
Fish from the river and ocean feeds much of the city. Residents in the garden district grow editable succulents and other drought hardy plants. Individuals here will also raise a variety of tasty poultry, lizards, snakes, and other small animals. These foods are also found in the river district.
