A relatively small port on the outer rim of the Astral Trade Zone, Xynohpus Cove (or Sapphire Cove, as the locals refer to it) is a collection of small wooden buildings on a flattened fragment of the earth plane, complete with its own magic shop, blacksmith, armory, and a two-story warehouse.

- Located on a oblong fragment of earth, about 200' across by 50' around.

||||
- Usually has 1-2 ships in dock.

||||
