Freight Terraces

Mid‑stack terraces and gantry grids where most physical cargo moves between orbit, other districts, and Emberbed Foundry.

• Function: Container routing, docking‑ring interfacing, warehousing, inspection bays, and customs checkpoints for bulk materials.[docs.google]

• Environment: Still climate‑controlled for biologics, but more utilitarian: wide freight corridors, crane gantries, maglev tracks, and suspended walkways over container stacks.[docs.google]

• Inhabitants: Logistics cadres, Concordance trade regulators, stevedores, freight exocortices, and unionized biologic workers who spend their entire careers on this layer.[docs.google]

• Hazards: Cargo shear zones (dropped containers, over‑loaded cranes), occasional Shatterglass dust intrusions in outer bays, and neural mesh glitches that misroute manifests or ownership flags.[docs.google]
