Haven is a major hub on the planet Cradle, as well as the home of the Strangers. These salvagers offer the Spiral Knights sanctuary in return for the treasures that they acquire while investigating the Clockworks. Friendly vendors from other races (such as the Gremlins and Devilites often encountered in the Clockworks) also reside here, though in much smaller population. Haven is also heavily populated with snipes, bulbous little birds with a curious means of locomotion.

Haven is divided into three districts -- the Town Square, the Bazaar, and the Arcade. Each area has an exit into the other two, forming a type of loop that offers quick access to any part of the town.

There can be more than one instance of Haven depending on the number of players logged in. You can move to other instances via the minimap.

History

Haven is the home of Strangers on Cradle. Since the Skylark crashed on the planet's surface, the Spiral Knights have gained the trust of the Strangers and found sanctuary in their town.

The Spiral Knights and Strangers both have a vested interest in the Clockworks and stage trips there from the town's Arcade. The knights seek the possibility of repairing their ship, and the Strangers have interest in the treasures that the knights bring back from their adventures.

Town Square

Town Square is the first point of entry for knights entering Haven from the rescue camp. The area features a large plaza, with a central fountain in front of the Auction House. The Advanced Training Hall can be found on the west path leading to the bazaar.
