Whisper Berth Clearing Floor
Overview
Whisper Berth Clearing Floor is the customs line and clearing floor inside Whisper Berth, a Goblishili orbital berth. Ships dock into a fast perishables line; clerks stamp manifests and send freight to the cold-dock. Past the cargo rings, factors, insurance arbitrators, and house liaisons close deals on the floor in Goblishili chirp-trade. Fuel is skimmed from the four gas giants overhead.
