| The main occupation of the villagers is fishing, undertaken mostly by the men and older boys in shifts. Fish and other seafood accordingly makes up a large part of their diet, though some fruit vines and bushes are grown on the surrounding lower slopes and hunting is possible further up the valley. The gathering of wood (mostly from local fast-growing bamboo-like plants) is mostly the province of women, as is the construction and repair of buildings.

| - | There is relatively little to draw outsiders specifically to Khilaad. The coastal road runs above the village, and a path runs up the valley to an inn where the road crosses the stream; most trade stops there the rest without involving the village itself, though there is just about enough gold dust to be panned from the streambed that a few merchants find it worth their while to hawk their wares there. Most visitors to the village itself are male bands whose members are looking for companionship among the local women. Sea traffic is likewise rare; sometimes small loads of items are brought by boat from neighboring villages, but there are no docks for managing bulk cargo and larger vessels find it difficult to maneuver into the harbor in any case. | + | There is relatively little to draw outsiders specifically to Khilaad.
