Ash-Hospice Row
Mercy, filed in glass and soot
Brast's western hospice district catches the soot, the dying and the facts the Ordnance ledgers misplace; by A.S. 201 its fever dishes have begun writing names.
Codex Ref. II.2.06-201

Boiler Commons
Where warmth is rent, leash, verdict, and little idol
The Boiler Commons of Brast are a worker district of heat debt, warm chits, ration kitchens, pipe-lane kingdoms, Red-Three fever, and kettles that have begun answering bells.

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.

Catechism-Barracks of Brast
Where obedience learns the furnace's hours

Gauge Ward
Where brass confesses before men are permitted to lie

Ordnance Bureau
The office that makes thunder accountable

Slag Market
Where Brast's holy heat cools into crime and soup
The Slag Market is Brast's outer-ring commerce in leaked sanctity: warm chits, forged seals, quiet hymns, hospice filth, stolen heat, and necessary lies.
Codex Ref. II.2.06-201

Still-Canals of Brast
Where holy fuel cools before it learns obedience
Black-water condenser channels beneath Brast, where chrismole cools, mesh clogs, boys vanish, and every lockwheel becomes a theology of delay.
Codex Ref. II.2.01-022

Substrate
The grey thing beneath the hymn
Brast's fourth fuel component is named blandly because useful horrors prefer dull labels, locked caskets, and a hymn before seventh bell.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.92-201

The Calibration Choir
Three hundred and twelve licensed throats between fuel and opinion
The Calibration Choir keeps Brast's chrismole obedient: three hundred and twelve licensed throats, one fourth-bell hymn, and machines with opinions.
Codex Ref. VIII.6.02-001

The Chrismole Furnaces of Brast
Where oil learns hymn and iron consents to kill
Brast is the Warm City, a Zone 2 foundry-city whose chrismole furnaces turn fuel, hymn, soot, and denial into artillery breath for the Line.

The Distillers' Compact
Where sanctity clogs, monopoly learns to breathe

Codex Ref. VIII.6.03-001

The Manifest Court
Where a drum becomes lawful and arithmetic learns the rope
The Manifest Court of Brast counts chrismole into legality: weigh-bridges, wax tables, variance pits, missing gallons, Sorn Vale's balcony, and the sacred terror of a number disagreeing with itself.
Codex Ref. XIII.1.93-090
