Majora StationThe Gullwind’s berth in the docking bay of MajoraStation is rented for another six months. If thecharacters decide to keep the bay after the sixmonths are up, the standard fee is 2000 Cr permonth. When the fees are paid, the Gullwind isguaranteed to have a berth there when she needsit—even if station authorities have to order anothervessel to leave.If the PCs bring a load of liberated chukkahs toMajora Station, the characters’ names and faceswill be known to virtually every citizen of InnerReach. This could have any number of intangiblebenefits, and perhaps a few disadvantages, infuture adventures.Whether this fame is positive or negative dependsgreatly on the outcome of the Dramune War.
