Economy & Craft
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Primary Economy | The Celestial Order is not primarily focused on commerce. Their economy is largely self-sustaining, centered on the production of food from mountain gardens, the crafting of ritual instruments, and the maintenance of their scholarly infrastructure. |
| Trade Goods (Export) | Rare celestial artifacts, manuscripts and copies of scholarly texts, celestial sapphires and star rubies, magical ingredients unique to the Celestial Mountains, luminescent crystal instruments, and guidance or advisory services. |
| Trade Goods (Import) | Items necessary for scholarly work and daily sustenance that cannot be produced within their monasteries: foodstuffs, textiles, raw materials for crafting, parchment, and select alchemical ingredients. |
| Craft Specializations | Astronomical instrument making (brass and crystal), manuscript illumination, gemstone cutting and ritual preparation, enchantment and warding, medicinal herb processing, and celestial cartography. |
| Currency & Exchange | The Order favors barter and knowledge exchange over monetary trade. When monetary transactions are necessary, they deal in the precious gems mined from their mountains. |
