The story... A new ebony vain was found in the Caldera mines and trade in the area increased so much that something had to be done about it. After much debate and speculation it was decided to dig through the mountain and build a port on the Bitter Coast with better access to other ports and the mainland. A fellow Blade who lives in the port heard of the new arrival at Seyda Neen and offered assistance.

You can row a boat into the port if you have Fishing Academy mod installed which is fun. It is possible to sail a ship into the port if you remove the bridge but it is tricky. I started this mod when I made Balmora Lightouse but felt it was too much work at the time. Now I am starting a new game and wanted a new player home so I finally finished it.
