DFS Highcloud to Launch Soon, BB i. 1

The Pellio Company has announced that their first lighter-than-air ship will be launching from Rivermeet soon, although no official date has been given. The company received a large grant from the Dholan High Parliament to complete the DFS Highcloud--the first airship constructed in Dholan and possibly only the third in all of Celevox--far ahead of schedule. Pellio has heavily advertised the ship in Rivermeet, looking to use it as a luxury mode of transportation far superior to the railways, as well as a means to transport small amounts of cargo. A special mooring is being constructed south of Blackwall to accommodate the airship, though progress has been slowed somewhat by the initial use of substandard materials. The collapse of the lower 100 foot portion that had been constructed resulted in the deaths of 6 workers on the site.
