Cloud Archipelago

The Cloud Archipelago was a huge driftstation built around a cluster of silicate rubble reclaimed from collapsing realities. Founded by Drift merchants seeking a neutral ground for commerce and travel, the Cloud Archipelago was perhaps the most prominent trade hub outside of Guild-controlled Drift. It played a major role in the Great Drift War and subsequently developed into the Archipelago Empire, with the driftstation becoming the Empire's political and economic centre, the Spire.
