“Goods by gift and slate, not by coin.” _{~ Commons recorder}

Sunrise Commons sits on the far shore of Signal Bay, near the fallen Eastwatch. People here don’t use coin. Needs and offers go up on public slates, and you settle by gift, barter, or recorded service. It works better than outsiders expect and worse than they fear; mutual aid is strong, but authorship blurs and arguments about who did what linger longer than they should. Mirror code from Westward Watch reaches the Commons faster than road news, and glassworkers keep chasing a return mirror big enough to answer across the bay.
