Few questions about the Forge
I hope everyone had a good weekend.
I've been working on making a list of where and what kind of stuff in in the city of the Forge so I can do a map.
But I have some questions that have come up after looking over the info on it.
The City Proper
Manufacturing city
Contains thousands of war factories, forges, smelters and other heavy manufacturing facilities dot the crater's jagged rim along the city's massive outer wall
Is the rim "jagged" on the inside/outside of the wall?
What do you mean by jagged?
How tall is wall? How wide is Wall? What is wall made of?

The District of Black Iron
Between the encircling Rim District and the inner wards of the city is the infamous Wall of Chalvinus Twenty feet thick
How tall and what is it made of?
And divided by vast, circular towers at 200-foot intervals
Surmounted by bands of black iron that project outwards from the triangular battlements along the walkways, the feature has resulted in the Entire city-section beyond being named the District of Black Iron.
So the ‘District of Black Iron’ is made of many districts or it's own separate one?
The Wall of Chalvinus separates the vast multitude of workers and manufactories from the more specialized crafthalls, warehouses and residential tenements of the Master's Order.

You listed 14 Noble houses - where in general would they be?
I'm having a very hard time trying to understand how each district relates to the others around it. If someone could thumbnail it out it would be of great help, I've tried and it's just to confusing.
Also how long and how many highways are there connected to the city? Are they in the mist so pretty much unuseable?
I can't seem to attach a image here still so I will post the thumbnail on my site
