I hadn't made the Sigil connection --my Planescape experience is limited to Torment on the PC-- but that's a great way to describe the setting.

It hasn't been in anyones best interest to take it over because while it isn't difficult to find the port, but unless you have charts, it's really difficult to find your way home.

I know the port is raided frequently by monsters and not-quite-men from islands in the sea, as well as by their neighbors to the north and south, but I admit, I hadn't thought about outright conquest from beyond...
... that makes a good metaplot though. The port in the beginning of the Age of Men that unfortunately takes places after the end of the world. Who'd want to
colonize or
conquer it? I'm certain there's a good answer for that...
