A Dock in a Calm Harbor 
  The crushing waves that assault the rest of the cliffs hold no sway in this 
small harbor.  The dock is quite lengthly and stretches out into the harbor
in perpendicular fashion from the cliffs, having enough room for two large
vessels to tie off on either side.  A large structure can be seen at the 
top of the soaring rock wall, overhanging it by a good fifty feet, supported
by huge wooden trusses jutting from the cliff face.  There is an opening in
the eastern wall of the building where an immense set of pulleys is being
used to lower massive casks and crates down into the open holds of the
ships.  Workers climb up into and down out of another smaller opening
using a series of wide, silvery rungs that extend down the rock face to
the dock.
