Market Quintan

The northermost quintan, abutting the Rivermouth district, is home to the Great Market of Liminal, a massive market square. The extraplanar merchants of Rivermouth frequently set up their exotic wares in the rented stone stalls of this market. This area also sees a number of permanent merchant's shops and inns that cater to travelers.

The blocks south of the Great Road in the Market Quintan are what are called Guilds-blocks: clusters of shops all based around a single craft, their owners all cohorts in the same Merchant Guild. Guilds-blocks are often built to include the guild-hall for one of the Guilds in Liminal, making them highly sought-after shops by the members of that Guild. The Guild itself usually owns the shops there, and its masters and journeymen finagle and maneuver to attempt to secure the rights to such a shop.
