Porto Lascone

Turosebimi may be the only deepwater port in Guteng capable of receiving the massive ships required to contain and transport lift gases, but that doesn't mean it's the only port in the colony. Situated farther to the south, at the mouth of the Guteng River, Porto Lascone may not be able to accommodate oceangoing vessels due to its extensive maze of sandbars, but neither can cargos of any significant size make their way upriver without enlisting the services of its rivermen and bargemasters. Though a few brave captains risk running the marshes without help, the people of Porto Lascone have a chokehold on river trade with Fsamâng - and they aren't afraid to protect that arrangement with violence when necessary.
While Porto Lascone is technically ruled by the governor of Guteng, it also has its own local governors: a council of representatives from the various shipping concerns who do business along the river. It's an open secret that the council is controlled by the Bargemans Guild.
While Porto Lascone offers numerous opportunities for anyone wanting to make a living the honest, old-fashioned way, its numerous guilds and less savory organizations - particularly the Bargemans Guild, which holds most of the real power in the town - are on the lookout for employees, particularly the type who aren't too ambitious, can follow orders, and don't spend a lot of time worrying about the legality of their actions.
