Port Nye

Port Nye was once the center for whaling in Saldonia. In one respect or another, every aspect of daily life in Port Nye revolved around the whaling ships and their prized catches, both for industry and consumer needs.
Years ago, huge ships took to the sea every day to hunt these massive leviathans of the deep, and in the evenings they would return with the day’s fortunes. Today, the harbors stand empty. When oil was discovered in New Barlovia in 1539, the whaling industry slowly died away. The only remains of it are the plethora of carved scrimshaw still for sale in the shops and stores. The proud hunting ships were sold to the Pawsatucket Navy. As part of the effort to protect the ports from pirates, several were scuttled at the entrances to the harbors in Port Nye, Whitmouth, and Salway Harbour. The massive warehouses, once built to store products made from the whale, have been converted into steam-driven cotton mills.
