Guilds and Factions
Savalashi belongs to the High Lord, however two guilds vie for local power here.
The Wind's Wings Guild- The Wind's Wings Guild is the guild for Airship captains and sailors who fly the air between Roshar and the Upper Isles. Without approval from this guild, potential airmen and women are stopped by guard forces, and any travel by sailors not licensed with the guild is grounded very quickly. While mostly focusing on the regulation and unification of air travellers, the guild is also interested in holding power within the city in order to ensure they have their fingers in as much trade as possible. The Wind's Wings often feud with the Wine and Spirits Guild for local power, which often has a decision in zoning areas. The Wind's Wings want more land in order to expand airports and increase the flow of air traffic.
The Wine and Spirits Guild- The Wine and Spirits Guild are a mainly matriarchal guild focused on the regulation of Wine, beer, and spirits in and out of the city. The Guild has a large control on the transportation of alcohol worldwide, and boasts an excellent reputation in the protection of product from bandits and monsters alike. The Wine and Spirits Guild frequently feud with the Wind's Wings guild over power, which the Wine and Spirits Guild wants to use to increase land for increased alcohol demand. Further, the Wine and Spirits Guild do not have as much control over shipping product to the Upper Isles as they do over land and sea, since the Wind's Wings control air traffic
