-Being a port city, Acryn boasts extensive docks and a mighty fleet, at least before the Upheaval. The Upheaval has made sea travel much more dangerous, to the extent of which few ships passing beyond sight of the shore ever return, and some are lost even in shallow waters, as horrors of the sea frequently appear out of the Flux, great krakens and whirlpools rising up to drag ships into the deep. This inherent risk has made much of the Navy rather redundant, and many ships have been refitted to catch fish, staying within sight of the city itself, well within the consensus. The smaller ships are also used to voyage down the great river, to trade with the riverside towns on the way to the lake Miquil and the city of Margush, the river routes themselves being firmly parts of the consensus. Finally much of the navy is now used to keep contact with the islands to the east of Acryn, being within sight of the main city and close enough so that a journey can be made with a competent wayfinder on board.+Being a port city, Acryn boasts extensive docks and a mighty fleet, at least before the Upheaval.

 Known for being one of the more structured and disciplined fighting forces of its type, the Circle maintains a rigid hierarchy. Promotion must be seen to be earned, never bought. In what some could consider an exception to this, the Circle accepts any of noble blood who seek them out; typically those who have fallen on difficult times, gifting them positions of value due to their birthright. Known for being one of the more structured and disciplined fighting forces of its type, the Circle maintains a rigid hierarchy.
