The Baldaquin

This ever-bustling district contains facilities vital to the continued well-being of the city, such as the Mean's workshops and Spagyrics's infirmary. The plateau neighboring the Mean is given over to the amaro tamers and their charges, with the supports of the Amaro Launch extending out into the surrounding gorge.

The Baldaquin is an area in The Crystarium, Norvrandt.

Landmarks

Ballistics is entrusted with developing and storing the weapons and military supplies considered crucial to the city's defense. While the facility originally manufactured more traditional projectile weaponry, they have since shifted production to crystal cannons-magical artillery capable of firing, concentrated aether.

The Crystarium's primary production hub houses a multitude of workshops and storerooms under a single roof. A cacophony of crafting rings out day and night, with the facet-affiliated workers joined by a near-constant influx of independent artisans in search of commissions.
