Brast
The Warm City, where fuel obeys licensed breath
Brast feeds the Line through seventeen kilns, licensed throats and audited drums. Heat is rationed; obedience is sold; the boilers have begun to answer.
Codex Ref. II.2.01-004
Choirmaster-Calibration Ilyra Kest
The woman who taught valves to obey a murmur
Ilyra Kest presides over Brast's Calibration Choir: three hundred and twelve licensed throats, one ruined public voice, and valves that still obey.
Codex Ref. III.1.04-002
Gauge Ward Hall
Where licensed voices teach brass to testify
Gauge Ward Hall calibrates Brast's pressure gauges and artillery sights under licensed song and serial seal. The tools carry an unresolved rival chorus; Mire is expected, and the instruments are already answering.
Codex Ref. II.2.01-023
Guildmaster Maer Voss
The filters were adequate; the lungs were not
Maer Voss declared Brast's filters adequate for thirty-one years and died of lung varnish in A.S. 186. His successor inspected sooner and charged more.
Codex Ref. III.1.04-004
Guildmaster Pex Ruln
The man who owns the mesh beneath sanctity
Pex Ruln governs Brast's filters, locks, substrate receipts, and the useful delay between sanctity and throughput. His hands are never clean.
Codex Ref. III.1.04-003
The Chrismole Furnaces of Brast

Ninety-two thousand souls and an unknown number of engines live in Brast, the continent's only producer of sanctified chrismole fuel — and something in the furnaces has recently begun to sing back.
