	The Hegeranzi Starworks is a massive orbital station and shipyard near Omgolo, a large gas giant on the edge of the Uueoa-Esa system. Despite being a Hephaestus Subsidiary, it is the only primarily Unathi run shipyard in the spur, though K’laxan Vaurca are also present in large numbers. Hephaestus has been under fire for this workplace make-up, as critics imply the few humans working in the starworks is due to its horrid workplace safety record, and that Hephaestus would rather risk the lives of “lesser” species. Its main products are Civilian ship hulls, which dwarfs anything else produced at the starworks by two orders of magnitude, Weaponry, and Ship Components. It is an extremely rare occurrence for anyone other than the Hegemony, and the Merchant’s Guild to be allowed purchase of their high-end products or military hulls. Outsiders however are more than welcome to purchase civilian vessels, have repairs done, refit hulls, or store vessels at the starworks.

	Born out of a prominent clan in the shipwrights guild, clan Hezin was the first group to complete an Unathi-adapted Space Ship Hull for the Hegemony, and received a large grant to build a shipyard within the Uueoa-Esa System. Hephaestus Industries was contracted to assist in the construction of the facility, largely due to the Unathi’s lack of experience with station construction at the time. Hephaestus agreed to assist in construction for a relatively minor fee, a surprise to most observers. As the years went on, and the Hegemony’s demands for vessels increased, the Starworks could not keep up with production, being relatively new to the industry and Hephaestus refusing all contracts to assist the starworks in learning the ropes. Eventually, after its ascension to a Hegemonic Guild, Hephaestus would outright purchase the starworks in a deal, incorporating it as a subsidiary company. The subsidiary was set up to be run by the Hezin Clan who formerly led the guild, with all high-executive positions being filled by clan members. While Hephaestus Industries itself generally flondered attempting to incorporate the Guild System, the starworks remained a bright beacon of hope and prosperity for the company within the Hegemony; massively expanding under the leadership of the Hezin clan as contracts became more and more common, until it became the primary shipyard for Hephaestus Industries within the badlands. It is now regarded as one of the largest shipyards in the Spur, behind only the Ceres Shipyards and those in the Nralakk Federation.

	A very bureaucratic name, the Kutah Extraction Center is a massive open pit mine located just north of the City of Kutah within the mountain range. It is one of the largest mines in the spur, and digs up a considerable portion of the Hegemonies exported heavy metals, such as lead, chromium, and thallium, as well as radioactive elements like Uranium. It is considered an enjoyable place to work, with a week on week off schedule for guildsmen, and the city of Kutah a quick train ride away. Many guildsmen have taken to riding trains hauling ore back to the city, and it has become something of a joke within the community of workers assigned to the mine; new members are dared to ride holding onto the edge of a ore car for the several hundred mile journey. The Extraction Center is famous across the spur for having some of the only naturally occurring steel found, veins of the alloy appearing deep within the pit. Modern day scientists believe at one point the mine sat on an active volcano, whose temperatures alloyed carbon and iron into steel millions of years ago.

	Born to a peasant family on the outskirts of To’Ha’Dat, Huzini is one of the most famous members of the Bard’s Guild, and one of the most famous Unathi artists to ever live. A painter since he joined the Bard’s Guild, he is most well known for his works of landscapes or structures. His most famous work which catapulted him to fame, ''A Mountain View,'' an enamel painting that was done atop the highest peak north of Ura'Mastyx looking out over the Tza Prairie. As a Th’'kh-worshiping Sinta, he used the religious hues of yellow and purple to great effect and was praised by Th’akh nobility. The painting currently resides in Azui Hutay'zai's estate, after he purchased it to the tune of twenty million credits. Since then, Huzini has painted many other landscapes, including ''A Village Tuned,'' a water color of the city of Baandr which sold for twelve million credits to Mizaruz Izweski; ''Rivers Flowing'', an oil of several of Res’karum's waterfalls crashing into each other with a brilliant use of color; and his second most famous painting, ''Izweski's Power'', an oil painting of the destroyed Sk'akh Scept, as seen from the streets of Skalamar, which is currently on display in the Citadel’s throne room after Not'zar purchased it for seventeen million credits. ''Izweski's Power'' broke from his previous paintings by including people instead of just objects. Not'zar has said he keeps the painting near his throne to “remind him of the trappings of power.” Huzini's location is currently unknown, as he has ventured out into the Wasteland to find inspiration for his next piece.

	There is a mutual distaste between the Kataphracts and Freewater - with the Kataphract warriors tending to view Freewater as dishonorable, greedy, and cowardly mercenaries. Dagamuir members, meanwhile, view this distaste as hypocritical - the Kataphracts spend most of their time fighting for credits as well, after all. This dislike is further spurred by a not insignificant number of the Private Forces’ recruits being former Kataphract-Hopefuls, washed out or grown tired of waiting to be named a full Saa’Izweski.

	Guilds also developed another innovation: minting and issuing coinage. Because it was rather difficult to do large transactions with giant piles of dehydrated fish, the first Guilds in the 16th century began minting coins made of steel that would be backed by that amount of fish, similar to banknotes. They could be turned in, theoretically, at any time for an equivalent amount of salted fish. This saw Moghes begin to gravitate away from measuring wealth by fish stocks, and towards a more familiar economy, though the Fish Standard remained for quite some time.

	In 2465, after a recession caused by a spur-wide scarcity in Phoron which eventually collapsed into a downward economic spiral threatening to leave the Hegemony destitute, the guilds were absorbed by Hephaestus Industries as subsidiary companies after the megacorporation took on all of their debt in order to save the Hegemonic Economy. This expansion would mark a new age for guilds, one where Hephaestus now has a complete and total monopoly over the economy of the nation, under the direction of the Guildmaster Yukal T’zakal and ~~his “equal”~~ Aeson ~~Titanius~~.

			=Guilds on the SCCV Horizon=
			Following the events of [[The Titan Rises Arc]], leading to Hephaestus's ownership of most of the guilds listed on these pages, many guild workers working with human corporations found their positions shifted, terminated or otherwise changed. Hephaestus was able to work out deals with its rivals and partners in the SCC, allowing many of the guilds that do not work in Hephaestus's main industries to subcontract with other corporations. Some chose to resign their guild positions in protest of Hephaestus's acquisition, and have since taken full positions with other megacorporations.

			'''Current guild members working in Engineering or Operations must be employed by Hephaestus Industries''' - working for another corporation would require resigning guild membership.

			Outside of these departments, guild members may work as subcontractors for any other corporation. The healers of the House of Medicine often subcontract with NanoTrasen or the PMCG's medical divisions, and the mercenaries of the Fighters' Lodge have been hired by several of the latter's private military groups - with the Dagamuir Freewater Private Forces being a particularly common choice.

			'''Members of the Hearts of Industry are not permitted to work for Hephaestus, or the SCC directly. They may still work for any other corporation.''' A Heart of Industry working for Hephaestus or the SCC would be required to keep it secret, and if exposed would be at risk of losing their job.

	Hephaestus’s massive expansion and absorption of the Hegemonic guilds was a crippling blow to the Hearts of Industry, but what followed was its death. As a result of a flimsy conspiracy charge and charges for inciting riots in the [[Southlands]] and on [[Ouerea]] many of the guild’s leadership were arrested, and its charter revoked by the Hegemon. Some guild members, however, have viewed Hephaestus’s acquisition as a victory, due to the corporation’s generous benefits for its workers - for many, an improvement from their treatment under their previous guilds, and after the revocation of the charter, signed up with the megacorporation instead. Due to these factors, little of the Hearts of Industry remains, with many of the organization’s members having abandoned their affiliations or fled offworld to seek work elsewhere. Those few who have remained in the Hegemony are often persecuted for their affiliation, and attempt to agitate against Hephaestus’s monopoly - though with little to no success.

	The scarcity hit the Merchant's Guild the hardest of any guild. Requiring a constant flow of goods and credits through Moghes for profit, the limited trade and lack of quick interstellar transport has caused a steep dive in the profits of the Guild. Eventually, they were unable to remain solvent and were forced to declare bankruptcy and dissolve. This dissolution led to the Hegemonic economy entering a downward economic spiral, as trade with the outside spur decreased dramatically. Unlike the other guilds, Hephaestus did not move to absorb the Merchant’s Guild, ensuring their monopoly over exports in the Hegemonic export focused economy. Today the Merchant’s Guild is merely remembered in two distinct ways. Some view it as almost having potentially started an economic collapse, only narrowly avoided by the invention of Hephaestus. Others see it as the last domino that fell in the steady decline of the traditional Izweski economy, its dissolution signifying the end of Hegemonic Independence from the whims of Megacorporations.

			Some remnants of the Merchants’ Guild persist underground, engaging in illegal trade. They have come to be known as the Silver Scales, and they have rapidly carved out a significant stake in the Hegemonic underworld. The Scales lack the power the Guild proper once had, but they have endured and persisted through its collapse, and show no signs of slowing their operations down. More information on the Silver Scales can be found [[Unathi_Crime_And_Enforcement#The_Silver_Scales\|here]].
