He is charged with keeping an eye on the dealings and trade across the isles, mainly ensuring illegal goods are kept out. |

The five Resa Sarhi have varying degrees of willingness to work with other races. While outsiders are not normally permitted to visit clan keeps situated in Aeras Daramai, it is never hard to find a representative of the Resa Sarhi to speak to. | * **Resa Sarhi** - The five eldest, largest, and most powerful Raiken clans: Relatir, Ormroth, Rakavasu, Slevexa, and Delrasu, all have a presence on Aeras Daramai.

+ | |||
+ | Individuals looking to obtain any item other than food, water, and shelter, which is always available, must requisition it with Alliance supply depots. Bare necessities can be obtained by any citizen or authorized visitor by visiting any of the massive feasting halls that the Alliance maintains, where food and somewhere to sleep is always available, free of charge. Other items may be requisitioned at Alliance supply offices and will be provided if available to citizens or authorized visitors, although ' | ||

+ | |||
+ | Like any other Alliance city, occupations cover every facet of life, although only Alliance citizens are permitted to work. Visitors are seldom permitted to work within Alliance territory, if at all. Aeras Daramai features approximately the same distribution as any other city, with construction workers, cleaning personnel, supply officials, Protectors of the Alliance peacekeepers and soldiers, entertainers, | ||

==== Transportation ==== | ==== Transportation ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | On the Isles, each island is connected to the other via wide suspension bridges. Otherwise, a simple network of paved roads allow access to most of the isles. In the interest of saving space, as the islands are not terribly large, these roads are all a single lane, with appropriate sidewalks on either side. To the Raiken, this is fitting, as most do not utilize motorized transport. In fact, motorized transport is typically only used on the isles by the Alliance to move freight or other cargo. Motor transport for single individuals is practically non-existent. As such, the usual method for navigating the isles is walking. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, the Alliance does utilize aircraft shuttles for public transport or moving cargo. Each island has one or more shuttle station and these shuttles operate with regular routes. Shuttles on these schedules do make stops at the Underland. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Underland transport is much the same as Isle transport, with roads connecting the various districts and motorized transport being generally limited to Alliance use. The Underland has the same shuttle system as the Isles, with stops around the most important centers. | ||

It is equipped with its own spaceport, warehouses, barracks, feasting hall, offices, and various defensive installations. There is a single bridge connecting to Pinnacle where authorized personnel may cross. | ||

+ | Nestled between Keep's Overlook and the Crystal Collective, Riverside is a mostly Dralu community on the bank of the fast-flowing Shard River. On the northern bank, there is a small collection of residential buildings on the shore. Some structures have been built by digging into the Keep Overlook plateau. A trading square in traditional dralu fashion has been constructed halfway in and out of the plateau. Although the Alliance' | ||
