Cindersweeps was a residential district in the City of Brass on the Elemental Plane of Fire.[1][2][3][4]
Description[]
A steep trail called the Chimney led down to Cindersweeps. This section of the City of Brass was the center for all naval activity of the efreet.[1]
Near the naval yards of Cindersweeps stood the Arches, a staging area for processing newly acquired slaves.[1]
Notable Locations[]
- The Gate of the Simoom,[3] also known as the Gate of the Desert Wind, was an entrance into the Cindersweeps district. It also acted as a fortress, complete with a permanent garrison and a dedicated military commander.[4]
- Krak al-Zinad, also known as the "Keep of Fire Striking Steel," was a fortress that served as an armory for the harbor garrison.[2][4]
- The Naval Yards, which included both a drydock and a military dock,[4] were situated in the lower reaches of this district. It housed the ships of the city's navy, the Sultan's personal fleet — consisting of 90 booms and 40 baghlas —[5] and efreet-owned interplanar crafts.[2] Those who operated the Naval Yard also governed admittance to the city's canal system via the Naranj Canal.[2][4]
