===The Grand Docks===
'''(2 Destiny)'''

Without the Grand Docks, there is no Bird's Progress—or at least no Bird's Progress worth talking about. A magnificent testament to the engineers of the Jin Empire, nowhere under heaven sees more ships, great and small, day and night, arrive and depart. And all the while, new ships are being constantly being built and old ones repaired at the attached shipyard. So while the grasp of imperial authority on the city itself is tenuous, on the docks it is vise-like. The elite Sea Turtle Marines patrol the shipping lanes, fighting a constant battle with pirates; soldiers hand-picked for their incorruptibility patrol the shipyards; and while the tax-assessors might not look too closely at the contents of cargo ships, they will not allow one copper coin of tax to go unpaid.
