TEXT: “The Argonaut is steel eternal. It is motion and 
  purpose. It will ride when the spirits that haunt 
  it are long gone.”
  —Lady Devira, Duskwall Magistrate
  Gaddoc Rail station is the massive soot-covered 
  engine of Duskwall transit. Passage on and off 
  Akoros is brokered here. Bent knee Skovlanders 
  and half-demons from Tycheros can be tied up 
  for days in its immigration offices. 
  Rail jacks are detained here while spirit wardens 
  poke and prod them to test for possession. Shops 
  hawking local souvenirs to travelers are butted 
  up against foreign quarters offering temporary 
  housing for visitors from Ilysia, Wintercliff, and 
  the Imperial City. It is rife with opportunity and 
  peril, often aboard the same train.
  Last Night
  The northbound Argonaut from Wintercliff 
  clattered into Gaddoc Rail Station, its cattle 
  catcher ablaze with electroplasmic lightning. On 
  it was your mark. Nobody left the station after it 
  pulled in...
  No one has left the station since.
