}}<blockquote>''"Behold: a ruin of giants. Gargantuan blocks jigsaw together, furred with moss and whispering with orchards. A bucolic village nestles amongst them.''</blockquote><blockquote>''"Smoke coils, daintily, from the chimneys. A leisurely game of cricket unfolds on the village green."''<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|Arriving at Port Avon|Sunless Skies}}</ref></blockquote>'''Port Avon''' is a quaint village adrift in [[the Reach]], nestled among giant stone ruins.__FORCETOC__

==A Town Called Heaven==
''"Were it not for talk of smugglers and sky-beasts, you could easily confuse this place for a village on the world you left behind."''<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|Write a Port Report|Sunless Skies}}</ref>

Port Avon is a rural village reminiscent of Old Earth, where cricket is popular and apple cider is drunk aplenty.<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|Play a round of cricket|Sunless Skies}}</ref><ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|Appreciate an amount of cider|Sunless Skies}}</ref> Its settlers are unfortunately rather xenophobic toward visitors, who might need to assimilate a little with the locals by hosting tea parties or sharing gossip to stay in their good graces.<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|Port Avon|Sunless Skies}}</ref> 

==The Cyclopean Ruins==
<blockquote>''"Not one of the looming stones is quite square, yet they all slot together immaculately. What were these ruins, before their fall? Even their bones are tall and stately as the finest cathedrals of old France. What purpose did they serve in the past, plentiful days when their sun still shone?"''<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|The Ruins|Sunless Skies}}</ref></blockquote>Port Avon is built on top of giant ruins. No one in Port Avon knows who or what used to inhabit them. What the townspeople do know is that excavating the ruins can reveal troves of souls, so spirifers flock there in search of a windfall.<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Port_Avon|The Ruins|Sunless Skies}}</ref> 

===What are They?===
{{major spoiler small}}The ruins were actually [[Judgements#the Garden King|the Garden-King's]] dinner table; Mr. Menagerie and many other [[Curators]] provided souls to him as food. The souls scattered about the ruins are implied to simply be leftovers.<ref>{{citation|https://sunlessskies.miraheze.org/wiki/Mr_Menagerie%27s_Stall_for_Delicious_Scouts|Listen to a story of things past|Sunless Skies}}</ref>
