While some smaller flying islands drift into the Skyway Zone, these islands are often seen as waypoints or stopping areas. They usually have bustling port towns or refueling stations where Zephyr crews can stop for supplies and repairs. Merchant cities and trade hubs also exist in this zone, suspended high in the sky, like Damocles, flourishing with trade and commerce. They are well-defended, deterring pirate attacks.
As a contrasting example: Floating Islands are stationary.
