Geography
The city is located atop a large bluff and is only accessible one of two ways: either by water-powered lifts, or by several ramps, each of which has multiple drawbridges that can be raised at a moment's notice.2
Economy
The main forms of industry in Skelt are mining and lumber. Ore is mined from the depths of the earth and brought up by huge lifts powered by dwarf-crafted waterworks. These same waterworks also power the ore grinders that help refine the ore into usable metals.
Lumber is also a big industry in Skelt, with sawmills dotting the Tourondel River for miles down-river.
Skelt is heavily reliant on trade, and for a long time it traded only with the nearby dwaven hold of Kraggodan. With the re-opening of the Bloodsworn Vale as a viable trade route, Skelt also gained access to Varisia, particularly the large cities of Korvosa and Magnimar.2
