Port Nyanzaru/Harbor Ward

The Harbor Ward of Port Nyanzaru housed the majority of city's docks, including those used by its merchant princes. It was a busy place, where ships were loaded and unloaded, allowing for goods to flow in and out of the port.

Location
The Harbor Ward lay along the harbor on the northside of the city. The Ward sat between the Merchant's Ward to the west and the Market Ward to the east.

Description
The harbor itself was built to be highly defensible against pirates, and featured a defensive chain that could be raised to block entrance or exit to the harbor as well as a lighthouse that could be used to send smoke signals. Different powders could be used to color-code this smoke, which could be seen across the Bay of Chult from the mines to the northwest to Fort Beluarian in the northeast.

While most of the docks were freely available for use by ships of all sizes, an enclosed portion at one end known as the "Royal Docks" was reserved for use by the city's Merchant Princes as well as any visiting dignitaries or influential merchants whom the Princes wished to impress or treat as honored guests. Between the Royal Docks and the public docks was a drydock and the Warehouse District.

Buildings

 * Fort Nyanzaru: The city's sea keep protected the harbor and housed a mechanism that allowed city officials to control its entrance.
 * Harbormaster's Office: This building housed the offices of Port Nyanzaru's Harbormaster, Zindar.
 * Warehouse District: Rows of waterways allowed dinosaurs to draw ships directly to their respective warehouses for easy loading or unloading of cargo.

Landmarks

 * Dry dock: Not used for shipbuilding, but rather for dinosaurs to drag ships ashore to be repaired, patched, or cleaned of barnacles.
 * Lighthouse: The fires that illuminated the way for ships sailing around Chult were seen for miles along the coast.
 * Na N'buso, the Great King: This statue depicted an old Chultan king adorned in full royal dress.
 * Royal Docks: Used exclusively by Port Nyanzaru's Merchant Princes or their guests (including ambassadors and influential foreign merchants).
