 The wealthy districts and neighborhoods south of the Ustradi are referred to as [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:skyside|Skyside]], whereas the polluted, industrial quarters to the north are collectively known as [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:smokeside|Smokeside]]. Within these two major regions, the city is further subdivided into loosely defined wards.  The wealthy districts and neighborhoods south of the Ustradi are referred to as [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:skyside|Skyside]], whereas the polluted, industrial quarters to the north are collectively known as [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:smokeside|Smokeside]].

-  * Smokeside is home to the quaint inventors’ neighborhood of [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:steamhaven|Steamhaven]], peaceful Ustradi Heights, and lively [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:ferrous_quarter|Ferrous Quarter]]. +  * Smokeside — Grit, graft, and industry: from the inventor‑crammed neighborhood of [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:steamhaven|Steamhaven]] to the raucous [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:ferrous_quarter|Ferrous Quarter]]. If something explodes here, it’s either a mishap… or a message.
   * In Skyside, one can attend swanky aristocratic galas in the Capital District, peruse the many marketplaces of Auburn District, or head to Pilot’s Square to pay for passage aboard an airship or dirigible bound for major ports along the eastern Garundi coastline.    * In Skyside, one can attend swanky aristocratic galas in the Capital District, peruse the many marketplaces of Auburn District, or head to Pilot’s Square to pay for passage aboard an airship or dirigible bound for major ports along the eastern Garundi coastline. 
-  * A few city districts defy categorization into either Skyside or Smokeside, including [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:hellside|Hellside]]—a shantytown that literally hangs from the side of the cliffs overlooking Alken Falls—and the monster-infested ruins of Ironside Quarter along the city’s far western wall.+  * A few city districts defy categorization into either Skyside or Smokeside, including [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:hellside|Hellside]]—a shantytown bolted to the cliff face, damp with spray from the falls, the perfect place to hide… or vanish forever—and the monster-infested ruins of [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:ironside_quarter|Ironside Quarter]] along the city’s far western wall.
  
 Alkenstar’s major institutions include Alkenstar Castle (from which the city’s elected politicians hold court), the Temple of Brigh (overseen by the highly influential priests of the goddess of clockwork), and Blythir College (the city’s only major magical academy and a hub of higher learning). Of course, as in any city, Alkenstar’s most important cultural movements occur among its people, not its leaders. In the sky-scraping towers of Graeson’s Fingers in the Capital District or upscale establishments like the Longhorn Lounge, socialites mingle and make deals behind closed doors at ritzy soirees and gaudy galas, whose electric luxuries are made possible only by the skilled engineers at the [[pantheonrising:campaign:alkenstar:places:tinwound_hydroforge|Tinwound Hydroforge]]. Alkenstar’s major institutions include Alkenstar Castle (from which the city’s elected politicians hold court), the Temple of Brigh (overseen by the highly influential priests of the goddess of clockwork), and Blythir College (the city’s only major magical academy and a hub of higher learning).
