"Crammed at the feet of a hulking crag, Port Prosper is a little London - divided into an affluent West End and an impecunious East. Queen's Cross is a busy station, crowded with engines that have arrived through the nearby transit relay from Albion."[1]
Port Prosper, also called "Little London", is a station located at the terminus of the transit relay linking Albion to the Reach.[2]
A New House[edit]
It is the main base of operations for the Windward Company, and its factories distill hours mined in the Reach for shipment to Albion.[3] Victoria's loyal servants are working on building a space equivalent of Big Ben here, called the Albert Clock in memory of her beloved.[4]
"Progress Marches On!"[edit]
"Wealthy West-Enders strut by, exchanging polite greetings and veiled gossip, while sooty East End workers file to the hour-refining factories. Peeling posters promise fresh, wholesome lives in the Reach to new arrivals. But most of the posters are years old. More newcomers arrive at Port Prosper than ever leave it."
This community is split by its class divide: Westerners, the high and rich of society, and Easterners, the working class and more bohemian of the populace. Festivals are common, and both social classes are lively.[5]
Unfortunately for both segments of society, there's only a limited amount of land in Port Prosper, and more settlers keep coming from Albion. Settlers depend on skyfarers for transportation to another distant port in the Reach.[6]
