Two banks, warehouses, and shipyards are also here, as are the docks of Ratha. Ratha has three docks, the Neh (which means "Long" in S'kra) Dock, Uasin Dock, and Uaro Dock. On the second tier are more shops, a bazaar, and several residential districts. The third tier contains Guildhalls, Temples, and the Palace, while the fourth consists of the vast estates of the ruling class, and the two gates: Sur'Oson Gate and Por'Oson Gate.
