Above and Below - a deep purple-trimmed ebonwood cottage with a black-shingled roof (25)

[Above and Below]
Floor, ceiling, and walls, this solitary room is framed in interlocking panels of matte-finished ebonwood. The effect created is almost disorienting, and the room's only window does little to alleviate the feeling as any light entering is filtered through the deep plum-hued curtains covering it. Furniture is sparse, with only a viridian satin-covered table sitting against the back wall, a wide black lace-draped shelf hung just above it. On the adjacent wall, a dark iron coat rack stands beside a frameless, floor-to-ceiling mirror. You also see a purple lace-curtained doorway.
Obvious exits: none

Candles are 2500 silvers, not worn and have the following show:
The [adjective] candle looks like it won't burn much longer.
Candle holders are 5000 silvers, not worn, and hold VSA on top.

On the satin-covered table you see an ornate crimson candle, a tall bronzed green candle, a white and silver sphere candle, a pebbled grey candle, a snake-shaped emerald candle holder, a triple moon candle holder, a warped copper candle holder and a cut crystal candle holder.

On the iron coat rack you see a bronze and viridian robe.

[Above and Below, Underground]
Considerable effort appears to have gone into the construction of this underground chamber. Timber and iron beams brace the walls and the ceiling overhead, while tiled flooring has been laid down to separate those passing through from the dirt of the floor. Against the wall, out of the way of the narrow passage, is a table supporting a deep etched bronze bowl. Atop an elaborate ironwood case set just a few steps away is a discolored parchment sign. A tall mirror stands at the rear of the passageway.
Obvious exits: east

In the Common language, it reads:

Each of the rings will hold a single pinch of powder, which can be found in the bowl. Or, if you prefer, the pouch contains ten pinches of the powder.

This poison can be applied to food and drink, with no detectible traces left behind. And, supplies are limited. First come, first serve.

Be aware... I do not sell the antidote here.

On the small table you see a small leather pouch and a deep etched bronze bowl.

In the etched bronze bowl you see a pinch of translucent powder.

Items in case are 20000 silvers, fingerworn, hold VSA for one very small item and have purpose.

In the ironwood case you see a carved crimson eye ring, a leaf-cradled white pearl ring, an azurite and silver ring, a filigreed hazy moonstone ring, an inscribed gold scarab ring and a heavy silver wolf head ring.

[Above and Below, Underground]
Heavy iron lanterns dangle from the iron beams overhead, shedding a golden light through their soot-tinged glass shades. Despite the reinforcements of wood and metal against the earthen walls, the cold of the underground creeps in, casting a faint chill in the air to accompany the scent of moist soil. At the edge of the passageway is a wall-mounted glass-doored cabinet, and beneath it sits a suede-covered table.
Obvious exits: east, west

Items in cabinet are 15000 silvers and not worn.

In the glass-doored cabinet you see a copper and turquoise athame, a lacquered birch athame, an opal-set brilliant gold athame, a glossy ebonwood athame, a simple polished silver athame and a scorched linden athame.

Items on table are 7500 silvers, beltworn, hold VSA for one very small item and have purpose.

On the suede-covered table you see a cord-tied sturdy leather sheath and a bone-beaded aubergine silk sheath.

[Above and Below, Underground]
Along the wall of the walkway is a three-sided display, and a discolored parchment sign hangs above it. Amber light from the overhead lanterns gives everything a gold sheen, the illumination stained by the dirty shades through which it passes. As if the workman ran out of time or interest, the pattern of the tile flooring is broken; there is a tile here and there, but eventually the dirt flooring returns where the passageway terminates at a heavy iron door within a carved oak frame.
Obvious exits: west

In the Common language, it reads:

a clear gold-stoppered potion - Invisibility

a squat bright green potion - Haste

a tall-bottled dark potion - Darkness

a round-corked misty potion - Unpresence

a splintered bone wand - Bone Shatter

a hefty ironwood wand - Mind Jolt

a pitted ashwood wand - Disintegrate

a gnarled thanot wand - Mana Disruption

On the three-sided display you see a round-corked misty potion, a tall-bottled dark potion, a squat bright green potion, a clear gold-stoppered potion, a gnarled thanot wand, a pitted ashwood wand, a hefty ironwood wand and a splintered bone wand.

a splintered bone wand               2740     Bone Shatter

[An Underground Chamber]
A score of braizers are set about the chamber, lighting and heating the area, while giving off the faint scent of hemlock. At the heart of this fortified cavern, there stands a lengthy table, finely carved and circled by high-backed chairs. Thick and sturdy timbers rise up along the walls and stretch overhead, where they are joined by iron beams to strengthen and keep at bay the dank cold of the underground. Opposite the ladder, a carved frame of oak houses a heavy iron door. Obvious exits: none

On the oaken table you see an emerald muslin chasuble, a faceted bloodjewel talisman and a heavy black wool robe.

Adramel's - a ragged gash in the wall of a ruined home (23)

[Adramel's, Antechamber]
Shafts of moonlight filter through the mist-laden wreckage of a small home, the only remnants of which are a charred antechamber and the shattered husk of a loft above. Glimmering, a silvery spiderweb clings to the slumping bulk of a blackened stone fireplace at the foyer's end. Debris clutters the ground. You also see a ramshackle stairwell spiraling up to a ruined loft.
Obvious exits: out

In the stone fireplace you see a charred black wool cloak, a seared crimson velvet longcoat, a blackened emerald linen cape and a singed sapphire silk stole.

On the stone fireplace you see an indigo glass wyvern stickpin, a cloudy glass moth stickpin, a red glass halfling stickpin, a silver glass whorl stickpin, a black glass mask stickpin and a scorched mauve oilcloth mantle.

In the stone fireplace you see a charred black wool cloak, a seared crimson velvet longcoat, a blackened emerald linen cape and a singed sapphire silk stole.

[Adramel's, Loft]
Nestled in the crumbling, lopsided skeleton of a loft, a spray of silvery pillows encircles a rare untouched swathe of floor in the unstable ruin. The roof is torn away, and the shadows that the harsh sunlight casts are long and dark. All that remains of a stone chimney is a toppling pile of pocked bricks in the loft's western corner. You also see a ramshackle stairwell spiraling down to a ruined antechamber.

Aevant's Folly - a tall stone building (57)

[Aevant's Folly, Library]
Despite the thin layer of dust that coats nearly every surface in sight, the shop itself is tidy and neat. Marks along the surface of the cubbyhole shelves show where scrolls have been recently moved, and round imprints stain where six thin candlesticks on the dusty table have made their homes in times past. Further behind the shelves, cabinets lining the walls are filled with a variety of books. Pervading the stale air are the smells of ink and parchment.
Obvious exits: north, out

Shop uses trading.

You see some cubbyhole shelves. Tall cabinets of dark wood span the width of two opposing walls. Each cabinet is decked with deep shelves, which have been separated down the entire height with slats of wood that create cubby spaces. Scrolls, some unraveled, some rolled up tightly, sit in several of the dusty spaces. Looking at the shelves, you see a series of lower cubbyholes and a series of upper cubbyholes.

In the lower cubbyholes you see an orchid-hued parchment scroll, a pristine pea-colored scroll, a verdant-hued sheet of papyrus, a sheet of lemon yellow parchment, a sheaf of ebony-inked papyrus, a pale ivory scroll, a gold-bound azure parchment, a thin blue-hued scroll, a gold-edged crimson scroll, a sheet of ashen parchment and a piece of maize-hued papyrus.

[Aevant's Folly, Laboratory]
Small oval windows to one side allow moonlight to filter into the musty room, illuminating wooden racks stacked with bottles of various shapes and sizes. Taking up the whole of the table in the center of the room, an intricate contraption holds a collection of clear bottles together at odd angles, and tubes of various shapes and sizes connect the bottles to each other. A short doorway opens to a rickety set of stairs leading downward.
Obvious exits: south

On the wooden table you see a tarnished silver sign and an intricate contraption.

In the Common language, it reads:
Try a potion today!

You see some wooden racks. Several racks spread throughout the room, their dark wooden shelving holding a bevy of potions for sale. Looking at the racks, you see a thin and narrow rack, a dark fel rack, a tall rack and an elaborately carved rack.

On the narrow rack you see a square-shaped coral flask, an apple-shaped sienna glass and a thin cerulean phial.

[Aevant's Folly, Workshop]
Large in width and length, the workshop is two stories high, and oval windows near the top of three of the fel walls allow for moonlight to flood in and illuminate the full space. Overflowing with neatly arranged books, parchments, and other odds and ends, bookshelves line three of the walls. A fourth wall is crowded with several racks of potions clearly marked for testing purposes. A worktable of sorts, which also looks to serve as a desk, stands next to the rickety stairway that leads upward.

The After Life - an old beaten house (34)

Merchant(s): Harv

[The After Life, After Sale]
The front room of this small home has been turned into a makeshift shop, complete with a small glass display case in one corner and a stout wooden counter in another. Dried mud cakes the entire floor of the room and the thick smell of sweat infuses the air. You also see a sturdy ironwood rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: north, out

On the wooden counter you see some thick multi-pocketed robes, some tattered bluish-black robes, some white leather robes, some dark leather robes, an invar-inlaid bronze lantern, a blackened silver lantern, a maoral-inlaid copper lantern, a brass-inlaid steel lantern, a blood-stained wooden shovel, a mud-stained oak shovel, a wooden brass-tipped shovel and a heavy wood-handled shovel.

[Harv's Bedroom]
The upper dwelling of the small home is nothing more than a cramped attic. A pile of dusty books lays near a small tattered cot that rests below a tiny window. A battered wooden trunk sits with its lid open and some sweat-stained clothes are strewn over its side. You also see a stained wooden stairway.
Obvious paths: none

[The After Life, Backyard]
Smatterings of twisted ironwood trees cast an eternal shadow over the backyard's landscape, causing the scattered patches of grass to look almost black. The skeletal remnants of large rodents are spotted throughout an overgrown garden, while an old deteriorated tool shed lies at the furthest reach of the lawn. You also see a tall wooden door leading back inside and a huge recently-dug hole.
Obvious paths: none

In the recently-dug hole you see a small black animal coffin, a tiny elm animal coffin, a tiny rosewood animal coffin, a small red oak animal coffin, a grey modwir animal coffin, an ironwood animal coffin, a polished haon animal casket, a dark maple animal casket and a hazelwood animal casket.

Alternative Arkati - a low dark wood structure (18)

[Alternative Arkati]
Spiraling outward from the sides of a large ceiling-mounted lantern, rich folds of wine velvet drape gracefully, concealing the walls. The intimate, tentlike decor is enhanced by numerous richly patterned jewel-toned carpets that are piled alongside a series of pillows on the floor. Glittering gems and metals are strewn over the rugs, their colors matching the fabric's hues.

The dim light of the outer room barely penetrates this cramped area. Still, small metallic objects sparkle faintly, their jewel-adorned surfaces drawing the eye. The baubles are hung from web-like netting strung in ragged ribbons from the black ceiling. The scent of cinnamon and sandalwood incense is so strong it is almost cloying, and the faint haze of smoke further obscures the edges of the room. You also see a cracked dark wood chest with some stuff on it.

Armorer - a wrought iron gate (45)

[Armorer, Exterior]
Irregular chunks of fieldstone, fitted together like giant puzzle pieces, gird the oversized frame of this tall building. From within, a muffled cacophony of sounds spills outward through numerous wide unglazed windows, with an occasional voice or two rising far enough above the din to be heard bellowing commands or haggling in feigned outrage. Racks have been placed near the door to show off select merchandise. Hearty flames in heavy iron wall sconces lend a red-orange glow to the metalwork on display. You also see a wrought iron gate.

[Armorer, Fitting Room]
Attendants dart in and out, measuring cords draped around their necks, carrying various bits of armor to be tried on or properly adjusted to fit the clientele.

Aspirations of Expiration - a crude sone and yew house spotted with mold (12)

[Aspirations of Expiration]
A fine film of ash and dirt covers the room, from its mistwood floor to its witchwood walls. Numerous containers clutter the area, all tightly closed and often stacked one upon another. From one wall hangs a smudged, framed parchment, and narrow pathways wend through the clutter, providing access to a rattle-inscribed dark arch and a velvet-wrapped arch. You also see a moldy yew door.
Obvious exits: none

In the Common language, it reads:
When possible, the ashy remains of others and grave dirt harvested at midnight have been incorporated into my items by various means. The protection of the expired is immeasurable, but it can have unusual effects sometimes, as evidenced by the toys in Recreations. Be forewarned. ~Zetoile

[Aspirations, Expectations]
Bits of dirt and mold have been swept into a small pile in one corner, in what appears to be a half-hearted cleaning effort. A bergamot cradle and a matching armoire sit near a window, moonlight illuminating the polish upon the wood. A threadbare and faded tapestry hangs on the opposite wall, leaving the center floor bare to display its inlaid icon--a headstone beneath crossed baby rattles. You also see a rattle-inscribed dark arch.
Obvious exits: north

A scrap of heavy vellum is tacked to the armoire.

Items in the armoire are 1500 silvers and not worn.

[Aspirations, Recreations]
An abundance of dirt and mold lies strewn about the floor, piled especially high next to a dusty cypress toybox. A mold-covered yew bin, partially hidden beneath a rickety table, also draws a multitude of the musty-smelling substances. Moonlight trickles in through a partially boarded window, and motes of dust dance and sparkle in each silvery beam.
Obvious exits: south

Items on table, toybox, and bin are 15000 silvers, not worn, and scripted.

In the Common language, it reads:

A stacks of containers, tightly latched and incredibly dusty, line the walls, leaving barely enough room for a moth-eaten male mannequin and an ash-covered female mannequin. A heavy, dark velvet curtain is opposite the velvet-wrapped arch leading to the entry.

Bath From Beyond - a tiny wooden shop (13)

[Bath From Beyond]
Freshly sanded wooden shelves line the sides of the warm room, which is permeated throughout by a myriad of pungent scents. Brushed steel racks divide the area in half, and running along the length of one of the smooth walls is a slate counter, its dark surface covered with long loafs of uncut soap. Tracts of dried herbs, flowers, and fruits hang from exposed beams across the ceiling and wind along the edges of a finely polished teak sign. You also see a steel-banded door.

Beggar's Alley - a dark alley squeezed between two shops (54)

[Beggar's Alley]

Bladesmith's Cottage - a slate-paved walk (40)

[A Slate-roofed Stone Cottage]
Sturdily constructed of wood and stone, a modest slate-roofed cottage stands forlornly on this small lot. Horizontal shutters on both sides of the door yawn open, the bottom halves propped on wooden legs to form a pair of shelves, and the upper sections, held aloft by rusted iron rods, serve as makeshift awnings. In the yard lies the skeleton of a large dog, still tethered to a stout peg, a loop of rope tied to its rotted leather collar. A pole-mounted brass lantern illuminates both sign and walkway. You also see a slate-paved walk.
Obvious paths: none

[Bladesmith's Cottage, Main Bay]
Divided into two bays and a loft, the interior of the cottage appears to be more shop than living space. Illuminated by verdigrised brass lanterns, a treadled grindstone occupies one corner of this roomy main area opposite a solid trestle workbench. Various tools hang by decaying leather cords from pegs in the roof trusses. Centrally situated, a conical hood and metal chimney are suspended above a raised stone fire pit. An anvil sits nearby, separated from the hearth by a large wood and hide bellows. You also see a wobbly wooden ladder and a rusted iron firewood bin.
Obvious exits: east, out

[Bladesmith's Cottage, Rear Bay]
Once the cooking area, this section of the cottage has succumbed to an encroachment of tools and weaponry in various states of repair. The table, sideboard, and even the twin cauldrons of the great stone fireplace have become receptacles for the bladesmith's wares. Set high in both the north and south-facing walls are four smallish square windows, each with its own stopper-like hinged shutter that hangs from the bottom sill. Quavering flames pop and crackle in iron cresset lamps at each corner of the bay Obvious exits: west

On the table you see a ring-pommel faenor kaskara, a gold-chased imflass arming sword and a flame-hued vultite longsword.

[Bladesmith's Cottage, Loft]
Overlooking the main bay, the loft is quite cramped. The slant of the roof beams makes only the peaked center area practical for standing fully erect. Nearest the eaves on one side of the room, a blanket-covered straw pallet sits atop a low frame, while a small table with a three-legged stool leans against the back wall. A squat oil lamp burns dimly atop the table, its smoky flame blackening the slate above. Opposite the bed, a chest and short cabinet line the wall. You also see a wobbly wooden ladder.
Obvious exits: none

In the chest you see a blackened ora warblade, a silver-chased vaalorn falchion and a plain rolaren falcata.

Blunt Instruments - an open air stall (45)

[Blunt Instruments, Wares]
The open front of the stall allows a gentle breeze to swirl through, raising a small cloud of dust from the ground and carrying the faint scent of weapon oil. Flickering torchlight illuminates a prominent display near the front of the stall, while a large weapon rack and a long wooden table sit to either side.
Obvious exits: north, out

Boniface Inn - a neglected inn (35)

[Boniface Inn, Foyer]
A vaulted ceiling of simple, polished oak planks slopes down to meet walls of the same wood. Near the oaken double doors, a sturdy coatrack stands, holding an assortment of outer garments. To one side of the room, a small clerk's desk holds the inn's registry. Above the desk, a large painting hangs on the wall, its colors muted and soothing. A long, narrow rug leads north into the common room, past a cluster of comfortable leather chairs.
Obvious exits: north, out

[Boniface Inn, Common Room]
A massive rock fireplace dominates the common room, nearly filling the far wall with its girth. A staircase climbs the eastern wall, and a thick black felt curtain hangs discreetly in the recessed area beneath it. Facing the staircase is a long oaken bar fronted by several stools for socializing, and tucked into the far corner is a pair of quiet tables for patrons requiring more privacy. You also see a basket of sticks.
Obvious exits: south, west

[Boniface Inn, Gift Shop]
The tiny room is barely large enough to merit being called a shop. Each wall is filled with shelves, and racks of souvenirs and other small gifts crowd the floor space. A clerk bustles around the store, straightening and dusting, and smiling proudly at each visitor. You also see a sturdy brass rack with some stuff on it, a polished steel rack with some stuff on it, a stained modwir shelf with some stuff on it, a lacquered haon shelf with some stuff on it and a rough-hewn oak shelf with some stuff on it.

A colorful miniature oil painting:
Down the middle of this picture winds a smoothly paved stone road with a large meadow to the right of it. Behind the meadow stand a number of brick and wood homes. To the left of the road, several barrels of apples line a neat white fence that stretches into the distance.

A detailed miniature oil painting:
A produce cart piled high with a variety of fruits and vegetables stands in front of a large, black iron gate. A hawker stands to the side, offering a sparkling red apple to a small child. Behind the gate lie a number of respectable buildings, each with its own meticulously tended lawn.

A bordered miniature oil painting:
A low granite boulder stands in the forefront of the picture, its surface covered with the blackened lines of old carvings. In the distance, a black obelisk thrusts up against the sky beside the bulk of a great circular tower, and a worn track spirals towards a dazzling sun-dappled cliffface.

A simple miniature oil painting:
The painting depicts the town of Velathae itself, with Tower Hill featured prominently at its center. Artisans and craftsmen bustle up and down the streets, going about their daily lives, while visitors stroll more slowly through the town, taking in the sights.

A glossy miniature oil painting Not Worn Rows of apple trees, their lush, leaf-covered branches arching overhead, stretch out as far as the eye can see. Moss and leaf litter covers the ground below, and a number of children can be seen running about and laughing in play.

The toy rolton is covered with a dirty, matted, disgusting-looking grey pelt that might once have been white and is still abysmally smelly. A small, rusty bell adorns its shaggy neck, while a yellowed incisor protrudes from one side of its mouth like a fang.

On the modwir shelf you see a steel souvenir spoon, a copper souvenir spoon, a replica pewter thimble, a replica steel thimble, a fragrant amaranth bouquet, a bright yellow lily bouquet, a vibrant snow rose bouquet, a pale blue violet bouquet, a shiny blue gift box and a shiny red gift box.

a fiery red ruic-based snowglobe       10000

a dull grey oak-based snowglobe:
The clear bubble contains a detailed scene of a town square in miniature. Bazaar shops surround the square, and throngs of tiny people of all races mill about, many of them adventurers by their looks. At one end of the square is the town well, with a giant oak tree towering over it. Partially hidden among its branches is a tree house platform. Stone benches scattered around the square provide a place for the townspeople to rest, and some of them appear to be healing the wounded.

a terra cotta yew-based snowglobe:
The clear bubble contains a detailed scene of a grand plaza in miniature. The plaza is paved with a spiral pattern of alternating terra-cotta and golden-yellow bricks. On one edge of the plaza stands an ornate, white arch, and beyond it is a brick-paved avenue of elaborate temples, stretching to a towering city wall. A steady mix of tiny merchants, artisans, and clerics pass through the arch in both directions.

a green maoral-based snowglobe:
The clear bubble contains a detailed forest scene in miniature. At the forest's edge is a small clearing with a pool of water, fed by a tiny stream. Near the pool, two stone pillars mark the entrance to a peaceful sanctuary. A small shrine containing an altar is lovingly carved out of silvery haon. A small group of tiny people take their rest, while a miniature cleric kneels in meditation.

an icy blue modwir-based snowglobe:
The clear bubble contains a detailed scene in miniature. Tiny halflings dressed in varying fashions stand about, appearing to be engaged in lively conversation, while others recline on cloaks laid on the ground. One ancient halfling leans against the base of a large ice statue of a mule, taking a nap. A halfling abbess and a halfling wizard stand at the edge of a small crowd gathered around an injured giantman.

a fiery red ruic-based snowglobe:
The clear bubble contains a detailed scene in miniature. A river branches and then flows back together again, creating a small island, with small stone bridges spanning the river on both sides of the islet. A prosperous-looking inn stands in the middle, with a uniformed dwarf at the door. Near the inn is a tower of grey and white marble that stands quite tall within the bubble world, encircled by a winding stair. Tiny dwarves throng the area.

On the oak shelf you see a lavender purple-tongued orchid, a pink-tipped soft white rose, a stunning dark purple iris, a striated pink and white rose, a torn and ragged map, a faded hand-drawn map, a smudged parchment map, a neatly inked vellum map and a large candy bowl.

Bound for Fashion - a large ebonwood building with candle-lit stained glass windows (60)

Merchant(s): Loehli

[Bound for Fashion, Parlor]
The dark rose stain on the glass windows complements the hue of the ebonwood frames, while also muting what natural light filters in. The few candles placed within each window flicker with faint, pallid light to cast dancing shadows upon the surroundings. An elaborate silver platter rests upon a silk-draped table occupying the west wall, and a rose-hued damask divan flanked by high-backed ivory silk chairs takes up the rest of the room. A large hallway opens up to the right of the fireplace. You also see a meticulously lettered sign propped upon a silver stand.
Obvious exits: out

In the Common language, it reads:

A large ebonwood armoire occupies the corner of the showroom, its depths filled with accessories for the plethora of garments on display. Occupying the center of the plush ivory throw rug draped over the varnished ebonwood flooring, a lacquered table features an assortment of tunics. Finishing off the selection, an elegant silver rack displays fine robes. A tall archway leads to another showroom, while the hallway leads back to the entrance. You also see a small white placard.

Draped blush rose gossamer streams from the center of the ceiling and down to tie around the base of the silver sconces at each corner in the room, the tails of the gossamer strips trailing down to the floor. A collection of elegant dress mannequins occupy an entire wall, while a silver blouse rack takes up the opposite one.

Broken Cirque - a dour black wooden edifice (11)

[The Broken Cirque]
Feathery cobwebs cloak the corners of the high ebonwood ceiling, glistening in the pale light shining from ensconced candles placed throughout the room. Myriad old silver mirrors overwhelm the walls, their slivered and fractured glass distorting anything captured in passing reflection. The narrow entryway curves in toward a flight of flimsy stairs that lead to a sunken show floor.

Brightly painted wooden trunks are set out across the low-set circular room, contrasting awkwardly with the colorless floor underneath. At the center of the area, a spacious red-striped table elevates a crooked copper patina jewelry tree littered with glimmering trinkets. An enormous dark snakeskin case is illuminated by sickly lighting cast from a row of faceted jewel-toned orbs perched at its base.

A Catawampus Cottage - a catawampus cottage (23)

[A Catawampus Cottage]
The door of this cottage, in contrast to its humble, crooked housing, is mounted with a multi-faceted crystal doorknob, like a massive diamond, surrounded by an elaborately flourished brass escutcheon. The gaudy portal opens into a single, plainly appointed room, web-festooned and dust-rimed, its most prominent feature a round, dust-coated table. Some sort of mechanical device, ornate and bejeweled, rests in the center of the table. You also see a narrow wooden shelf with some stuff on it.

Merchant(s): Dacharious

[A Certain Affliction, Entry]
Shadowy cobwebs cloud the corners of the crooked room and threaten to overrun the high shelves that line the walls. Beneath a black ceiling dangles a wrought iron chandelier with green glowing orbs fixed on each twisted arm. A large black coffin rests in the far corner at the edge of the faded blood red carpet, while a crooked wooden table stands near the door.
Obvious exits: north, northeast

[A Certain Affliction, Study]
An enormous crooked wooden bookcase encompasses nearly the entire northern wall, its shelves packed to the brim with dusty tomes and ledgers. Flickering torches line the other three walls, their light casting eerie shadows on the cracked ceiling. A darkly-stained wooden table with a rotting centerpiece stands in the center of the room. Spiders crawl across the floor, their little feet barely disturbing the dust that has settled along the edges of the room. You also see a crooked oak umbrella stand with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: south

Items in bookcase are 35000 silvers and not worn.

In the wooden bookcase you see a dusty black tome, a cracked leather manifest, a flimsy ledger, an antique leather codex, a dog-eared volume and a leather travel journal.

[A Certain Affliction, Dungeon]
This narrow room is crowded with all manner of dungeon paraphernalia. Along one wall several manacles dangle from rusty iron chains. The floor is darkly stained and slightly sticky to walk upon. A wrought iron rack holding apparent instruments of torture rests on the floor beside a long wooden slab fixed with thick iron shackles. A tapestry covers a large space on the far wall and hangs between two candelabra with glowing green flames.
Obvious exits: southwest

On the iron rack you see a rusty black iron ankle shackle, a cracked silver mirror, a heavy iron ball and chain, a spiked black iron manacle, a set of wooden thumbscrews, a serrated steel bone saw and a surgical steel eyeball scoop.

[A Certain Affliction, Nook]
This cramped space is not quite big enough to be a full room. A crooked bench made of uncomfortably hard wood rests against one wall while a big padded chair sits caddy corner. A flickering candle has melted down onto a small spindly wooden workbench that encroaches on the personal space of the chair. You also see a raffle table with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: out

In the Common language, it reads:
These fluffy little cuddlies will be given out via a method of my choosing. They are simply far too precious to be sold off the shelf.

On the wooden workbench you see a hairless pink dead mole rat, a striped dead tiger cub, a vivid green dead grass snake, a fuzzy dead bear cub and a tufted tawny dead monkey.

The naked mole rat is just that -- furless and pink. The tiny body is stiff, its little legs sticking out at odd angles. A thin red line around its neck hints at the possible cause of death.

The bold stripes of the tiger cub are covered in dried and matted blood, washing away the otherwise bright colors in a swath of rust brown. The tiger's eyes have been replaced with green marbles, staring sightless into the distance, as lifeless as the rest of the body.

Brilliant green in coloring, this small snake is vivid but not vivacious. Spherical rubies have been placed in the now-empty eye sockets and sparkle with a red hue whenever they catch the light.

The bold stripes of the tiger cub are covered in dried and matted blood, washing away the otherwise bright colors in a swath of rust brown. The tiger's eyes have been replaced with green marbles, staring sightless into the distance, as lifeless as the rest of the body.

Tufts of soft fur stand out from all angles on this tawny monkey, and its hands and feet are black. Its empty eye sockets are closed and sewn shut, disallowing any vacant staring that could result with open eyes.

This small, limp form of a baby grizzly bear still holds its fuzziness, but lacks the vigor it once had. The body is skinny, its ribs sticking out from beneath the layer of brown fur.

Charmed - a small green-painted shop (29)

Merchant(s): Heddy

[Charmed, Entry]
Small and cozy, the shop's entryway is bursting with various charms and symbols, some hanging from rows of hooks in shop's the display window, others hanging from pegs on the walls.

[Charmed, Perspective]
Bright candles flare up from sconces that wind around the shop in a chaotic, haphazard pattern. The entire area, in fact, has no discernable order to it, seemingly thrown together with little regard to organized showcasing of merchandise. Scattered across the room are a series of mis-matched tables and several chairs, while hooks, nails, baskets, and shelves of every color decorate the fel-panelled walls. You also see a black curtain.
Obvious exits: south

[Charmed, Heddy's Room]
Shoved into a small living space, a tiny bed, a jumble of cooking utensils, two small dressers overflowing with ragged clothing, and a table covered in rough jewelry-making tools and supplies fill up the entire room. A small window, which is nailed shut, allows light in from outside. Obviously, the room's inhabitant is comfortable within the confines of close, cramped quarters rent with stagnant air. You also see a black curtain.

The Crab Shack - a dilapidated wooden shack (17)

[The Crab Shack]
Hanging from the ceiling is a row of giant rust-covered fishhooks, some of their metal still caked with what can only be described as guts.

[The Crab Shack, Back o' Shack]
A few thin tendrils of brown haze creep through the open doorway and the air is suffocated with the mingling scent of dead fish and decaying flesh. Perched on the far wall is a cracked wooden ship's wheel surrounded on both sides by two rusty sconces, their flames casting shadows about the muted room. A torn and faded tapestry hangs high from one wall and a frayed hammock occupies a corner of the room. You also see a group of salt-encrusted barrels with some stuff on it.

Creidne's Charms - an open doorway leading into a small shop wedged between two of the other buildings (6)

[Creidne's Charms, Entry]
Faded and dull mahogany beams line the walls and ceiling, some cracked and slightly splitting, defining the shop as old and neglected. The plaster set within the timbered structuring has mellowed to a rich ivory color and wears a thin, oily coating of dust. Splitting off in two divergent directions, openings at the back lead to other equally dimly lit rooms. The only attempt to make things more welcoming is a low, round vase filled with fresh mournblooms.
Obvious exits: northeast, northwest, out

Shop uses trading.

[Creidne's Charms, Eye Salon]
Here, faded and stained silk ruined with water streaks and soot cover the front two walls, their golden braid frayed and unravelling. At the back end of the room, warped and greying shelves display bottles filled with a myriad of potions. You also see a small wares notice.
Obvious exits: southwest, west

Vials are 50000 silvers.

In the Common language, it reads:
Please make sure you are buying the correct vial before you purchase it, as these single-use, permanent eye color dyes are not refundable.

Above a bowed dull haon shelf rests a splitting dry oak shelf.

On the dry oak shelf you see a spherical fern green vial, a spherical myrtle green vial, a spherical olive green vial, a spherical seafoam green vial, a spherical hunter green vial, a spherical lupine blue vial, a spherical wild iris blue vial, a spherical summer sky blue vial, a spherical glacial blue vial and a spherical sapphire blue vial.

[Creidne's Charms, Workshop]
Spare and cluttered with empty bottles, liquid-filled testers, and bowls of smelly brews that lie scattered about on various tables, the small workshop has a decidedly claustrophobic feel. Sheathes of yellowed manuscript are stacked and piled at a corner of a worktable, the curling pages weighted down by a shard of rainbow glaes.
Obvious exits: east, west

On the worktable you see a yellowed manuscript.

A stack of yellowed paper, edges curling up sharply, is neatly placed square to one corner of the worktable desk, and weighted down with a large shard of rainbow glaes. The prismatic stone glints brilliantly, even in this dimly lit setting, reflecting brilliant glimmers of violet, red, and orange.

In the Common language, it reads:
Black spidery inking marks the ornate script that scrawls across the top page, but the language in which it's written is arcane and unreadable.

[Creidne's Charms, Hair Salon]
Lush but dusty velvet curtains hang limply against the two near walls, in an attempt to give the room an elegant flare. Several shelves line the plain, timbered walls at the far end of this diamond-shaped space, stacked with rows of colorful glass bottles. You also see a small wares notice.
Obvious exits: east, southeast

All flasks are 50000 silvers.

In the Common language, it reads:
Please make sure you are buying the correct vial before you purchase it, as these single-use, permanent hair dyes are not refundable.

On the splintered oak shelf you see a thin autumn brown flask, a thin deep cordovan flask, a thin dark persimmon flask, a thin bright rust red flask, a thin cardinal red flask and a thin pale vermillion flask.

On the warped haon shelf you see a thin charcoal black flask, a thin mist grey flask, a thin fog silver flask, a thin electrum blonde flask, a thin pale ecru flask and a thin ivory-hued flask.

[Creidne's Creations, Foyer]

Obvious exits: south, out

[Creidne's Creations, Main Room]
A blade of light slices across the dusty floor from the west, augmenting the glow from several lit candles. Bundles of dried flowers hang upside down from the rafters, any scent they carried long gone and all color drained from their papery petals. Pedestals in each corner of the room hold glaes vases that have long lost their prismatic hue under a veneer of dirt. You also see a carved maoral hanging rack with some stuff on it and a carved oak hanging rack with some stuff on it.

At the center, a low wooden worktable serves as an sort of altar for the skills of the shop's owner.

Crossroads of the Gods - an austere stone edifice (20)

[Crossroads of the Gods]
A high domed ceiling looms overhead in this all but empty space, and an intricate compass design has been inlaid into the polished wooden floor. An enormous exquisitely faceted black diamond hangs suspended from the apex of the ceiling, creating a kaleidoscope of reflective colors, which spill directly onto the center of the inlay below.
Obvious exits: north, out

[Crossroads of the Gods, Light]
The highly polished white marble walls and floor seem to give this room an incandescence, which is accentuated by an extraordinary golden sunstone gently swinging from a chain many feet above.

A single long white table sits squarely in the center of the room and a golden-edged placard has been hung on the far wall.
Obvious exits: north, south

[Crossroads of the Gods, Dark]
The highly polished red marble walls and floor create a dimly glowing ruby ambience in this room. The only decorative element is a large, opaque black deathstone that spins lazily at the end of a fine black chain fastened to the ceiling. Seeming to absorb the blood red light, it casts dark shadows as it rotates slowly in the air. A single long red table sits squarely in the center of the room and a black-edged placard has been hung on the far wall.

Ebon Crypt - a stout ebon-hued building with a rough wooden door (33)

[Ebon Crypt, Foyer]
Like a ghostly phantom rising from the freshly filled grave, the gleaming ebony walls of the tower flow from the flagstone floor to the ribbed vaulted ceiling. Sconces let off enough light to reveal little more then the outline a pair of arched doors lining the walls of the cool and dark interior.
Obvious exits: north, out

[Ebon Crypt, See All]
Dim candlelight dances off the glaze-finished ebonwood cabinets that are used through the space. Inconspicuously mounted mirrors are illuminated from an unseen source. Four tall columns of matching ebonwood stand square in the center of the rustic stone floor draped from one pillar to the next with luxurious sheer silk that sighs at the slightest breeze. Shades of jade, stained red, and umber silk decorate this lavish inner sanctuary swirling around a tall pedestal holding a mirrored ball. You also see a stone-lined ebonwood arch.
Obvious exits: south

Monocles are 40000 silvers and pinworn.

In the ebonwood cabinets you see an onyx-inlaid gold-framed monocle, a ruby-inlaid silver-framed monocle, an etched silver-framed monocle, a slightly bent silver-framed monocle, a polished gold-framed monocle and a dark silver-framed monocle.

On the tall pedestal you see a mirrored ball.

[Ebon Crypt, Stairwell]
Sconces let off contrails of smoke penetrating the surrounding darkness with a sinister sense of predation. A steep stairway of ebony rock grips the wall without rail or helpful guide beyond the faint light. You also see a stone-lined ebonwood arch.
Obvious exits: none

[Ebon Crypt, Dungeon]
A body is buried in the hypogeum in a spacious rectangular niche. Over the niche is placed a marble slab, on which are several items. On the wall to the west of the tomb there are several hooks holding various items of torture. On the east of the tomb, there is a round table, which supports an oil lamp casting haunting shadows across the walls.
Obvious exits: east, up

On the marble slab you see a blood-stained white silk shirt, a pair of dented steel wrist-cuffs, a pair of dented steel shackles and a bloodied and torn pair of trousers.

The hypogeum form a crypt consisting of six coffins, each set upon a pedestal of ebony matching the walls. Water caresses the hidden flagstone floor, spreading throughout several cubicles.

Eclectorium - a small wooden building (45)

[Eclectorium]
Sturdy wooden walls draped with canvas offer an unusual display for a collection of weaponry secured along their lengths. Tucked in one corner, a statue is posed with its right hand pointing directly at a large crate. Simple, butter-hued linens drape a rickety counter, the color creating a sunny contrast to the wares scattered along its length. Strung across the ceiling, tiny frosted globes emit a soothing low light that brings a sparkle to the room.

Enotslaved Abode - a loganberry covered gate (62)

[Enotselaved Abode, Back Yard]
Loganberry is tangled along the porch railing and the steps that lead to a modest rune-carved abode. Blanketing the lawn to both sides of the walkway are long dark green blades of grass with a silvery underside whips violently in a faint wind, while larkspurs in brilliant shades of blue, purple, and white incongruously stand tall and unmoving. Arranged to create the image of a great-winged wyvern are colorful mosaic tiles on a patch of land that is sprinkled with matching tables and chairs.
Obvious exits: out

[Enotselaved Abode, Back Porch]
Cushioned rattan chairs encircle a matching table laden with an intricately worked silver tray. Opaque netting drapes the porch giving it an indoor feel while allowing the wan light of the moon to add its glow to the iron candelabras that stand on opposite corners. A cluster of tailor dummies each wearing different sets of armor stand in one corner of the porch, under the dim light they look to be moving, albeit slowly, giving the appearance that they house some sentient being. You also see some steps.
Obvious exits: none

Epitaphs of Love - a small shop with a clear crystal doorknob (65)

[Epitaphs of Love, Jewels]
The room is devoid of adornment, save for a long wooden table along one wall, a warped rosewood chest, and a chipped oak bench near the door. Soot stains cover the walls and ceiling, particularly surrounding the brick fireplace.

Evymists' Shack

The Exterminator's Collection - a dilapidated shack (72)

[The Exterminator's Collection]
It seems as if the slightest breeze might send this shack tumbling to the ground. The only feature of note within is a large metal tank in which various animals float in a clear, viscous fluid.

Faded Away - a tall wooden gate painted with pink blooms (46)

[Faded Away, Garden]
Extravagant roses and climbing vines filled with morning glory blossoms consume the area, nearly overrunning the path that leads to and from a tall wooden gate. The garden is overwhelmingly filled with pink blooms in several varieties, offsetting the dreary grey wooden building that rises up to two stories over the garden.
Obvious paths: none

Drab grey planks of wood make up the tall building, its facade bearing not a touch of decor, save for the pink-flowering vines that climb up its length. Although several windows peek out of the building's exterior, they are covered in grime and dust. A single, narrow door allows entrance inside.

[Faded Away]
Tiny in terms of space, this shop is cluttered, with a long and sturdy rack, several wooden shelves, and a tall dresser taking up most of the area. Fraying curtains drape across the dusty windows, allowing in only minute motes of sunlight. Just next to a rickety set of stairs is a low wooden table. As if to add a touch of love and care to the otherwise bare surroundings, pink flowers have been painted along the edges of a narrow door and each of the furnishings.
Obvious exits: none

On the long and sturdy rack you see a black gown, a jam-stained skirt, some splotchy dark wool pants, a soot-stained shirt, a tattered deep blue cape, a pair of greasy green breeches, a ripped velvet cloak and a ruffled puce shirt.

Feed The Beast - a wide thick-timbered shop (14)

[Feed the Beast, Front Room]
Barely more than a foyer, this room opens into a larger shop beyond thick-timbered arches that lead in opposite directions. Though there are windows on each of the sidewalls, neither is open to allow in fresh breezes or anything else that might invite itself. The air is left suffused with a peculiar scent; a mixture consisting of the scent of freshly cut fruits and vegetables and the coppery twang of blood. On the wall between the arches sits a table, its surface laden with items for inspection.
Obvious exits: northeast, northwest, out

On the wooden table you see a waxed parchment packet, a waxed parchment bag, a wide-mouthed flip lid jar and a lined dark leather feed satchel. Under the wooden table you see a coarse leather glove.

a waxed parchment packet               50     Not Worn; VSA/Few Items
a waxed parchment bag                  50     Not Worn; SA/Several Items
a wide-mouthed flip lid jar           500     Not Worn; SA/Any Number
a lined dark leather feed satchel    5000     Not Worn; MA/Any Number

[Feed the Beast, Meats]
The temperature in this part of the shop is noticeably colder than the other parts, and this is likely due to the huge blocks of ice sitting awkwardly in washtubs beneath the steel display of meats. Some of the blocks are misshapen, as if bits have been hammered or shaved from them, leaving them as the logical origins of the mounds of ice filling the display. Above, strands of twisted hemp bear other offerings.
Obvious exits: southwest, northwest

Items on display and hemp are 500 silvers.

On the steel display you see some hunks of raw goat meat, some hunks of raw rolton meat, some cubes of raw urgh meat, some cubes of raw gak meat, a foggy-eyed pink salmon and a small copper-bellied brim.

On the twisted hemp you see a wrinkled pale green caterpillar, a long juicy earthworm, a dead tan-furred gopher, a dead soft grey rabbit, a dead tiny brown mouse and a long-tailed dead squirrel.

[Feed the Beast, Miscellaneous]
Here the scent of leather overwhelms any other, and the reason is plain to see. Fine hides are stretched taut on sturdy wooden frames that have been hoisted to hang from hemp ropes dangling from the rafters. Strips of measured leather and suede lay draped across a worktable, along with a variety of tools suited to work the materials. Beside a door of heavy oak is a stand with several shelves and a small round table, offering what look to be the goods produced in this room.
Obvious exits: southeast, southwest

Items on shelves are 15000 silvers and for companions.

On the shelves you see some razored dark faenor spurs, some hammered silver spurs, a double-bladed copper spur, a hooked thick invar spur, a set of coiled ebon ribbon bands, some embossed crimson leather bands, some onyx-edged ivory suede bands, some beaded silver mesh bands, some suede-tied lengths of cotton, some strips of slashed emerald leather, some gold-swept strips of blue satin and some russet strips of muslin.

On the round table you see a braided soft suede collar, a silk-threaded silver link collar, a burnished fine leather collar, delicate thin-linked collar, some suede and muslin paw-wraps, some thickly lined leather paw-wraps, some ivory silk copper-bound paw-wraps, some padded dusky suede paw-wraps, a padded suede falconer glove, a dusky leather hawking glove, a cord-tied thick hawker's gauntlet, a reinforced stiff suede gauntlet, a fine-toothed dark ivory comb, a lacquered oaken comb, a silver-chased thick-bristled brush and a simply carved rowan brush.

Felfire House

[Felfire House, Entry]
A spacious hallway stretches before you, lit with only a few guttering candles. In the dim, blue-tinged light you can barely discern a floor of dark wood and heavy velvet curtains that intensify the darkness. The sound of music beckons from beyond stone arch, while a broad passage leads further eastward. A twisted staircase of black wrought iron spirals upward into the shadows. Beside it, a shorter set of stairs leads to an upper level of the structure, their surfaces littered with splintered boards.
Obvious exits: east, out

Dyed to the hue of dark rubies, soft carpet underfoot stifles any sound. Gold cutlery brightens the food-laden buffet table, each surface glinting with the light of wall-mounted candle sconces.

[Fickle Fancies]
As if from some spectral censer, the faintest hint of jasmine haunts the air, and the warmth emanating from the fire in the hearth on the far wall adds a smoky hint to the sweetness.

Brushed silver sconces line the walls, topped with candles of pale ivory that burn with a constant fervency, causing a riot of shadows to play across the ceiling.

Across the abraded oaken floor, a myriad of wooden toys have been strewn, as if thrown down in the midst of play. A small wooden rolton with a tail of unwound twine has fallen over, and a miniature sword of smooth haon bears a tiny crimson handprint on its simply carved hilt.

Forest Clearing - a winding dirt paty leading into the woods (16)

Merchant(s): Rasmeeryn

[Forest, Path]
Lush forest surrounds the winding dirt path on both sides as it meanders into the woods. Tall modwir and cypress trees form a colonnade, enveloping the area with a thick, colorful canopy. The air is thick with the smell of loam and moss, and the area is bathed in a silvery light from the moonbeams that manage to break through the canopy, illuminating patches of soft grass beneath the trees.
Obvious paths: west

[Forest, Stream Bank]
The low sound of water meandering over rocks emanates from the small stream that cuts through the forest of thick trees.

Several stepping stones in the stream allow passage to the other side, their edges worn smooth by the constant passage of water.
Obvious paths: east

Forget Me Not - a small cottage (11)

[Forget Me Not, Light]
A dappled light floods in through the window along the far wall of this small cottage. Quaint white lace curtains perfectly match the pale violet hue of the paneled walls from which bouquets of dried flower arrangements hang. A fat cream-colored cat licks ardently at his paws, while customers walk around him, admiring the wares. You also see a carved mistwood table with some stuff on it, a small notice, a front door, a glass case, a simple woven basket and a tall veil stand with some stuff on it.

[Forget Me Not, Dark]
In contrast with the other room of this cottage, this alcove has a decidedly somber tone. Ripped black silk curtains hang limp from the square front window, while the walls are chipped and dented as if they have been beaten upon. Long, dusty tapestries hang from the low-beamed ceiling, enticing a bony black cat to swat at their fringed edges. You also see a simple woven basket, a glass case and a tall veil stand with some stuff on it.

Fusion Sanctum - an old domed building (4)

[Fusion Sanctum, Galleria]
Once-fine silks and velvet dangle from the ceiling, forming a sun-bleached halo of cloth beneath its cracked crystal dome.

A dull glow flickers from beyond curtains draping the northern egress. You also see an old armor stand with some stuff on it, a tarnished weapons display with some stuff on it and a short shields rack with some stuff on it.

Gardens of Evymists/Evymists' Shack - an enormous wrought iron gate (22)

[Garden]
Wrapped by a white picket fence, the lush garden is teeming with colors. Purple hydrangeas threaten to overrun the tiny cobblestone pathway that leads to a quaint cottage, while tall and bright yellow sunflowers droop lazily over a short footbridge that heads out to an acacia forest. Several shades of roses speckle trellises set to lean against the stone facing of the cottage, their twining vines verdant and dotted with ebon thorns.
Obvious paths: none

You see a vibrant purple hydrangea.
You see a bright yellow sunflower.

You see several shades of roses. Looking at the roses, you see an ebon-hearted cobalt blue rose, a frilled pink-hearted rose, an umber-edged coral orange rose and a scarlet-edged niveous rose.

You see an ebon-hearted cobalt blue rose.
You see a frilled pink-hearted rose.
You see an umber-edged coral orange rose.
You see a scarlet-edged niveous rose.

[Pebbled Pathway]
Rambling and aimless, the pebbled pathway glimmers in the golden sunlight that trickles through the canopy of leafy acacia trees. Low bushes lay in tangled knots to either side of the path, their boughs laden with plump berries and bird nests filled with multi-hued robin eggs. Further down the pathway, a white picket fence can be glimpsed while in the opposite direction a short footbridge spans a bubbling brook.
Obvious paths: none

[Gardens of Evymists, Left Hand]
Following the steep curve of the cobblestone pathway, a gurgling brook makes its merry way from the southeast and cascades down four small steps before spilling into a small lake. Rose petals, cherry blossoms, and myrtle blooms decorate the glassy surface of the lake amid mourning candles that float along the rippling rings of water. Benches surround the lawn with their backs turned to the pathway, while nearby tall bamboo torches burn a pungent scented herb that staves off the encroaching mosquitos. You also see a rambling pebbled walkway that meanders off the beaten path.
Obvious paths: east, southeast

[Gardens of Evymists, Pathway]
Water gurgles loudly as it escapes the confines of a pair of bamboo tubes that are attached to the white marble bridge that arcs across a lower section of the garden's pathways. Disappearing around the curve in the foliage, the cobblestone pathway is surrounded by the sweet, mingled fragrances of jasmine and honeysuckle vines that decorate the manicured lawns.
Obvious paths: northwest

You see a trailing honeysuckle vine.

You see a fragile white jasmine.

[Gardens of Evymists, Crossroads]
Merging to form a circular courtyard, several pathways through the garden meet around a large round marble fountain. Water trickles down from the various urns poised at its center into a basin filled with several varieties of water lilies, and creates a calm and soothing sound. At each of the intersections' four corners are oversized verdant green bushes riddled with roses, while flowering trees and creeping vines can be glimpsed in the distance.
Obvious paths: north, east, south, west

[Gardens of Evymists, Right Hand]
Bending sharply, the pathway nearly turns in upon itself as it curves around the trunk of the tree. Piled white stones mark the edge of a babbling brook that travels alongside the cobbled pathway, while thick buttercup bushes display their bright yellow blooms to the sun. Tiny purple thistles and white clover blossoms speckle the high grasses of the lawn and gently nod in tune with the almost musical chorus of the brook.
Obvious paths: southwest, west

You see a spiky white clover blossom.
You see a tiny purple thistle.
You see a tiny bright yellow buttercup.

[Gardens of Evymists, Pathway]
Cradled between white and lavender lilac bushes, the cobblestone path is followed by a small brook that is lined in bright white stones. Arching towards the west is a carved white marble bridge that spans over a different part of the pathway and is flanked by twin bamboo tubes that coax the brook towards the far side.
Obvious paths: northeast

You see a cluster of lavender lilacs.
You see a cluster of pristine white lilacs.

[Gardens of Evymists, Shack]
Thatched with thin wooden slats, the shack is coated with a thin layer of white paint that glows brilliantly in the sunlight. Various fragrances from the surrounding gardens filter in from the cobblestone path and pool near the small structure create an odd mixture of sweet, heady, and delicate scents.
Obvious paths: south

[The Gardener's Tool Shed]
Tiny and cramped, the shack has a single window that spills bright golden sunlight on its loose, plank floorboards. Higher up, a series of small wooden shelves house various gardening supplies that are neatly arranged and shows signs of recent oiling. A small wooden crate rests near the structure's only door, while a basket lined with black cloth sits in the center of the room. You also see a wood burned rough plank sign.

[Gardens of Evymists, Undersides]
Twisted and winding, the cobblestone pathway wanders through the high flowering myrtle trees, colorful butterflyweed bushes, and under an arching sandstone bridge. Sunlight drifts down on either side of the carved monstrosity, while the gentle sound of trickling water echoes through the shady enclosure. Clinging ivies decorate the edges of the bridge, their verdant tendrils dangling from the stone they cling to.
Obvious paths: north, southeast

[Gardens of Evymists, Pathway]
Gently curving, the cobblestone path winds its way through the gardens amid manicured lawns and cultivated flowerbeds. Several tiny blossoms raise their colorful heads from their stone ringed enclosures and lift their petal-ringed faces to the golden sunlight. Sunlight filters through the spindled boughs of an enormous weeping cherry tree and glistens upon the carved surface of the bench that sits at the apex of the path.

Grey House - a grey slate-shingled house (31)

[Grey House, Common Room]
The occupants of this house placed housekeeping low on the to-do list, a fact evident by the corroding layers of dust and grime that cling to every available surface. Soot stains crawl upward along the stones of the fireplace, slender and spread wide like fingers splayed, reaching toward the thatched roof. A long bench sits askew beside a scarred oak table, which is flanked on the opposite side by a three-legged chair pitched precariously to one side. A small, overturned basket of sticks rests on the hearth. You also see a heavy wooden door.
Obvious exits: north, out

On the oak table you see an unfinished lump of aventurine, a silver-topped ebonwood candlestick, a dull butter knife, a tarnished three-pronged fork, a stained dark oak bowl and a misshapen white candle.

[Grey House, Kitchen]
A scent both sweet and acrid permeates this cramped space, herbs and smoke from a long-extinguished fire haunting the air. Overhead, some low unfinished wood beams create a hazard for anyone much taller than a human as the pitch of the roof slants downward. Nestled at the end of a long oaken counter is a stout wood-burning stove, its hinged front grate left open with nothing but half-burned ashen lengths of wood in its belly. Every corner houses a congregation of dust clumps, and the occasional cold draft sweeps another across the floorboards.
Obvious exits: south

On the unfinished wood beams you see a strand of dry gardenia petals, a cluster of silk-wrapped eucalyptus, a small mesh bag of cedar chips, a bundle of twine-tied bay leaves, a downy cerulean feather, a long multi-hued feather, a cord-strung clove of garlic, a short ivory-flecked feather and a dark grey silver-banded feather.

[Grey House, Cellar]
Ledges carved from the earth itself harbor a myriad of spent candle stubs, their wicks barely supporting the feeble flames that remain to dimly illuminate this claustrophobic cellar. Wax drips and runs down the walls to the dirt floor, clumping as it cools, while the supports saving this space from total collapse weep silken strands of spiderweb. Against the side wall is a tall set of oak shelves, and at the very heart of the floor is a crudely drawn dirt circle, its purpose ambiguous to all but its creator. You also see an iron-bound wooden trapdoor.

[Grey House, Bedroom]
The fine grain of the head and footboard of the ebonwood sleigh bed is lost beneath a hazy sheen of dust, and the sheets and quilt are rumpled and tossed, left in a state of utter disarray.

Idolatry - a tall white stone tower (47)

Merchant(s): Diakice

[Idolatry, Ground Floor]
The limited area of this round room is further reduced by an oversized gold cave gnome idol that takes up the majority of the floor space. The smooth white walls are set with wrought iron brackets that hold guttering torches, causing shadows to dance eerily about the room. Barely visible in the gloom is a steep iron staircase.
Obvious exits: out

Shop uses trading.

[Idolatry, Shop]
More torches, none burning enough to sufficiently light the space, line the slightly dingier walls of this second-floor room. A hulking modwir armoire is shoved awkwardly against the curved wall opposite the staircase, and a large copper-edged table dominates the center of the room. You also see a small vellum sign.
Obvious exits: none

In the Common language, it reads:
These idols are suitable for praying. Place them anywhere for an impromptu worship session.

Idols are 25000 silvers and are scripted.

In the modwir armoire you see an ironwood storm giant idol, a laquered kakore fairy idol, a mossbark swamp hag idol, a muscular rowan centaur idol, a driftwood sea nymph idol, a slender willow dryad idol and a faewood squirrel idol.

[Idolatry, Workroom]
The ceiling of this top-floor room is comprised of ill-fitting slats of wood, most of which look rotted and ready to collapse at any moment. By contrast, the room itself is cozy and well-appointed. A curved haon table, low to the ground, offers refreshments within easy reach of a fluffy rabbit fur rug and a pile of oversized, soft velvet pillows. Next to the passage, a large fireplace is carved into the tower wall, the warmth from the flames chasing out the chill.
Obvious exits: none

On the curved haon table you see a glittery gold cookie, a handful of ripe cherries and some dark foamy brew.

In the Lilac Trees - a series of briars and vines (18)

[Dark Rose Cottage, Garden]
Hundreds of rose bushes, each overflowing with roses, fill this garden, which is spacious but enclosed with tall stone walls. Lilac trees, entwined together like lovers, add shady bowers, and fairy primroses encircle raised clumps of wild irises lining the edges of a brilliant green-black pond. Almost covered by moonflower vines is a tiny cottage with a rose-and-ivy carved door.
Obvious paths: none

Throughout the garden, pairs of lilac trees are twined together into miniature bowers, inviting guests to step into the shade and rest. In the far corner of the garden abutting the wall, surrounded by moonflower vines wrestling with climbing roses, several lilac trees lean conspiratorially together, and a gap just large enough for a person leads inside.

[Inside the Lilac Trees]
Several lilac trees have grown together, their upper limbs interlocking high above to form a nearly impenetrable roof. Just enough light filters through to see by, and the denseness of the lilac thicket mutes the sounds from the outside world. Branches reach invitingly out to serve as benches, and a series of small shelves hold a few small items. Resting on the springy grass, at the center of the bower, is a small marble altar carved with a rose-and-ivy intaglio.
Obvious paths: out

On the lilac wood shelf you see an ebon and goldenrod sun tourmaline, some polished cinnamon amber, a sunshine-hued oval-cut summer agate, a silver-shot dark blue storm agate, a grey-green carved snake agate, an ivory-banded indigo spectral agate, a mist grey and silver panther agate, a turquoise and azure nathala agate, a pale blue and green owleye agate, a translucent rainbow iris agate, a gold-striated russet drought agate, an opalescent blue-grey dream agate, a silvery ebon celestial agate, a rune-incised fiery blood agate, an iridescent rose-cut beetle agate and a small sign.

In the Common language, it reads:
A boat came down the river one day, bringing with it these magnificent gems, the like of which I had never seen. I traded for most of their stock and a promise for them to bring me more. These are for display only. I shall be by to sell my limited stock in person.

Items on shelf are 10000 silvers.

On the wood shelf you see a copper-framed notice, a flame-carved fire pearl, an incised selanthan bloodjewel, a rune-carved viridian star emerald, an azure-tinged ultramarine eostone, a vine-carved moonglae opal, a daisy-cut sunshine-hued diamond, a gold-swirled cerulean moonstone, a blue-speckled toadstool-cut ruby, a silver-traced aquamarine gem and some pale green dragon-carved jade.

In the Common language, it reads:
The gems for sale here are of the highest cut and quality. They can be used in sheath-making, lock clasps, and possibly more. In addition to what is for sale here, I shall be raffling off four special gems as their presence in my possession is a painful reminder of what I have lost.

This small altar is carved with a rose-and-ivy intaglio pattern across the base, highlighting the gold veins within the creamy ivory marble. A small plaque inset amidst the carvings is etched with elegant script, and a single, bright pink rose, not darkened in hue like the others in the garden, lies on top of the altar.

In the Common language, it reads:

~*!*~ To Lyrarose At My Undoing ~*!*~
     Dark from Bright
     Love and Light
     When comes again the Siren's call
     Battle hard before the Fall.

     Blood to roses
     Roses to thorns
     Souls to ashes
     Love forlorn.

     Heed me now 'for it grows too late
     Together we must battle fate
     Pass the door and join to me
     And through the Gate together be.

Intentsity - a rough-hewn wooden building (13)

Merchant(s): Keltosp

[Intentsity, Storage]
The cramped room is paneled in rough wood planks and lined with matching shelves. A low ceiling and uneven floor contribute to the generally claustrophobic atmosphere. At one end of the room is a battered metal door and at the other end is a tall wooden door. You also see a weathered wooden sign.
Obvious exits: none

Tents are 20000 silvers and not worn.

************************************************************
Welcome to Intentsity!
************************************************************

We're here to supply the shelters for your adventuring needs.

All sales are final, so PLEASE MAKE NOTE OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BUY! WRITE THEM DOWN!

REGISTER YOUR TENT
Your tent will not function until you register it This keeps other people from standing up or folding up your tent, or from entering it without you.

To set up and pitch your tent, you should STAND MY TENT.
To fold up your tent, you should FOLD (appropriate descriptor) TENT.

THESE LITTLE PUP TENTS CAN ONLY HOLD 2 PEOPLE *
Your friends may only be escorted into your tent in your group.
Only one extra person can enter your tent with you at a time. *
Once a guest is in your tent, there is only room remaining for you. *

TENTS ARE NOT CRITTER-PROOF *
You may not STAND your tent when enemies are present. *
Should a critter enter the area when your tent is standing, it will collapse it, and knock you, your guest, and your stuff out. *

IF YOU DIE IN A TENT BY YOURSELF, YOU CANNOT BE RESCUED!
Because of the various restrictions on the tent, if you die inside your tent without someone else inside, there is no way to be rescued.

TENTS WILL COLLAPSE AFTER 20 MINUTES OF YOU NOT BEING INSIDE
In an effort to avoid tent cities and tents being left all over the lands, the tents will collapse if you are not back inside after 20 minutes. This only works with YOU, the owner. Guests will be tossed out as the tent collapses.

COLLAPSED TENTS ARE SAFE FROM THE JANITOR FOR 5 MINUTES ONLY
Normally, the janitor will leave your tent alone, even while you're gone.
However once the tent collapses, you have 5 minutes to fold it back up before it becomes fair game for the janitor to pick up. Again, this is an effort to keept tent abandonment to a minimum.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR TENTS LOST TO THE JANITOR
Every effort has been made to give you ample opportunity to fix a collapsed tent.

LEAVE STUFF ON THE FLOOR OF YOUR TENT AT YOUR OWN RISK
Normally, if you are present, the inside of your tent is safe from the janitor.
However, if a critter knocks your tent over, all of your items will roll outside with you. If you ABANDON your tent and it collapses, the inside of the tent becomes fair game for the janitor. You WILL lose your items.

THE MORAL: NEVER EXIT YOUR TENT WITH ITEMS LEFT ON THE FLOOR!

TENTS MAY NOT BE PITCHED INSIDE, IN TOWN, OR OTHER UNUSUAL PLACES

OTHER PEOPLE MAY NEVER ENTER YOUR TENT WITHOUT BEING JOINED TO YOU, BUT DO NOT TREAT THE INSIDE OF YOUR TENT LIKE A "PRIVATE ROOM". IT IS NOT.

ALTERATION RESTRICTIONS:
Only the INSIDE of your tent, or the color may be altered by a tent merchant. Even then, only a color that fits with "canvas" in a 15 character description will work. Long descriptions and shows are not permitted due to tent mechanics.

* Special tents won via raffle or auction are exempt from critter rules and can be pitched with critters present and will not fall down when critters are present. Also, the capacity of these special tents is 4 people.

Among the many shelves, a splintery wood shelf, an unstained wood shelf and a dark wood shelf all have things piled on them.

On the dark wood shelf you see a folded cream canvas tent, a folded brown canvas tent, a folded sapphire canvas tent and a folded navy canvas tent.

On the unstained wood shelf you see a folded chestnut canvas tent, a folded saffron canvas tent, a folded heather canvas tent and a folded sable canvas tent.

On the splintery wood shelf you see a folded roseate canvas tent, a folded olive canvas tent, a folded lilac canvas tent and a folded crimson canvas tent.

[Ironwright's, Smelter]
An enormous brick forge occupies the center of a barren courtyard, fed by a triad of bellows manned by ghostly figures. Scattered among the coals are a number of brightly glowing incarnadine crystals that pulse with each gust of air. Some charred ceramic crucibles stand in a lopsided pile near a long wooden trough filled with stagnant water and chunks of ore and melted slag are scattered around the courtyard in large heaps. On one side of the courtyard, a rusty iron water pump drips slowly into a deep moss-covered well.

Items of Flare - a small wooden shop (34)

[Items of Flare]
Dusty and smelling of wood particles, the shop appears to be the victim of a child with a copious amount of charcoal. The plank walls and floor have been scribbled upon with black, sooty spirals and swirls, with the occasional grotesque face breaking up the patterns. A dented steel weapons rack in the corner stands besides an iron-banded barrel.
Obvious exits: north, out

On the steel weapons rack you see a polished ruddy orase yoribo, a deep crimson mesille staff, a scarlet hoarbeam quarterstaff and a sanguine carmiln bo stick.

[Items of Flare]
Clearly unused for many years, a fine layer of dust covers everything in sight. Much of the backroom is covered in cotton sheets dirtied with small black handprints, though a scratched wooden worktable remains out in the open. The charcoal scribbles from the main shop room extend here as well, with the addition of jagged peaks and crosshatches in the artistic disarray. You also see a rickety wooden shelf with some stuff on it and a large cracked cedar chest.

[Klide's Hides, Entry]
The front room of this small shop is cluttered at best, with shelves overflowing with a variety of animal hides and bones from large monsters.

[Klide's Hides, Backroom]
A massive worktable dominates the center of this backroom, its surface littered with old bones, packaged dyes and the hides and skins from wild animals and large monsters. A small stand rests nearby with an assortment of butcher knives easily accessible. A broken orc bone dartboard is propped up against a wall. You also see a large armor stand with some stuff on it, a carved wooden sign, a wooden weapons rack with some stuff on it, an imflass-latched wooden trapdoor and a wooden archway.

Knick's Knacks - a large wooden antique shop (35)

[Knick's Knacks, Eldrich Entry]
Long shelves run the length of each wall, each holding a plethora of items ranging from vases to books to teacups. A fair number of stained wooden chairs, tables, armoires, and wooden stands have been placed haphazardly about the room, set apart only far enough to provide a small walkway among the clutter. Scuffed and worn hardwood planks form the floor of the shop, and overhead a balcony runs the length of the room, its landings crowded with a variety of antiques.
Obvious exits: north, east, west, out

[Knick's Knacks, Serried Stands]
This area is filled with dozens of wooden stands, each varying in design, material, color, and function, but spaced perfectly equidistant from each other across the entire room. In contrast, a small display case stands off to the side of the room, ostracized from the rest of the furnishings in the room. On the far wall is a scratched teakwood door with a brilliantly shining gold plaque affixed to it.
Obvious exits: west

In the small display case you see a platinum marionette charm, a delicate crystal rainbow charm, a topaz inlaid golden star charm, an amethyst horseshoe charm, a coral inlaid silver heart charm, an azure diamond shaped charm, an amber full moon charm, a pale green jade clover charm, a silver tragedy mask charm and a golden comedy mask charm.

[Knick's Knacks, Outre Office]
Evenly spaced on the bare wooden floor, only a small oak chair, a polished modwir box and a single brass lantern occupy this otherwise empty office. The polished box is placed to one side of the chair, with the lantern on the opposite. The walls hold no decoration, save for a scratched teakwood door on one wall.
Obvious exits: none

[Knick's Knacks, Crowded Corner]
The hardwood floor is littered with a large number of boxes, coffers, strongboxes, and other containers, making walking difficult. In some places, the boxes are piled together to nearly waist high, while in other places a single one stands alone. The walls of this room are bare, save for a single long modwir shelf on the west side that holds an antique maoral chest.
Obvious exits: east

[Knick's Knacks, Pied Potions]
A number of tables line the walls of this room, each stained a different vibrant hue. Upon each table are two flasks, each shaped and colored exactly alike. A large golden chandelier hangs from the ceiling, but extends so far as to hang only two feet above the ground. A large circular rug rests on the floor under the chandelier, decorated with numerous splashes of contradicting colors.

Leftovers - a compact brick structure (8)

[Leftovers]
This small building was clearly not designed with comfort in mind, as the single room edifice has been constructed entirely of cold, uncovered brickwork. There apparently used to be furnishings of some sort in here, although all that remains of them is twisted metal and broken glass. The only thing that seems to be intact is an iron-hinged trapdoor set into the center of the floor.
Obvious exits: out

[Leftovers, Cellar]
Untouched by whatever force ravaged the room upstairs, this tiny basement remains spotlessly clean. A series of metal shelves along the walls holds a number of glass spheres. You also see an iron-runged ladder.

On the metal shelves you see a hand-filled sphere, a heart-filled sphere, an eye-filled sphere, a lung-filled sphere, an ear-filled sphere, a nose-filled sphere, a liver-filled sphere, a brain-filled sphere, a kidney-filled sphere and a foot-filled sphere.

Lock and Key - a shrouded hut (15)

[Lock and Key, Locks]
So coated in grime that they are nearly opaque, windows lining the rotting store's northern wall filter dust-dimmed moonlight into the small room. The huddled shape of a countertop lurks within the fleeting luminescence. Cobwebs cling, low and thick, to the sagging eaves above. You also see a warped doorway.
Obvious exits: east

Items on countertop are 15000 silvers, not worn, hold SA for any number of items and are lockable with the keys in the east room.

On the lock-etched countertop you see an onyx-studded golden coffer, a wave-crested silver box, a round copper box, a spiraled vultite case, a verdant imflass coffer, a thorned brass chest, a cloud-etched cobalt coffer, a jewel-crusted steel chest, a bound iron box and a ridged bronze case.

[Lock and Key, Keys]
A veil of spider webs hangs from the low ceiling, brushing the key-etched surface of a countertop that splits the room in half. Devoid of windows, the room's shadows are deep and unrelieved. Lingering scents of mold and rot choke the air.
Obvious exits: west

Keys are 15000 silvers, not worn and are used to lock the containers in the west room.

On the key-etched countertop you see a heavy golden key, an intricate silver key, a tarnished copper key, a white vultite key, a jagged imflass key, a long brass key, a twisted cobalt key, a riveted steel key, a rusted iron key and a tiny bronze key.

Merchant(s): Jenaveeve

[Lofty Aspirations]
The gold-washed walls of this small shop are completely lined with suede-padded tiered shelves, save for an arch leading deeper into the building. A tall octagonal bin sits in the center of the floor, one side covered with a polished silver mirror. Dark purple curtains covering the windows completely obscure any light from outside. Several oil lanterns hang from curved silver sconces on the walls, illuminating the room with a golden glow.

The Look it Took, - a slender white stone building (54)

[The Look It Took, Chamber]
Whitewashed stone walls lined with applewood shelves, and pale oak floors give the room a clean, compact feel. A swath of plum moire silk is draped artistically over a filigreed silver mirror that props up a varnished oak-framed sign. A stacked collection of wooden boxes serve as an eye-catching focal point, balanced delicately atop each other. You also see a raffle table with some stuff on it.

Malleable Majicks - a pair of brass-trimmed doors (56)

[Malleable Majicks, Salon]
At one time, this well-appointed antechamber represented the height of elegance. Richly upholstered settees clustered in cozy conversation groups around low ebony tables still beckon invitingly, though time has faded the cloth and dulled the wood. The remains of exquisite tapestries adorn the walls, vivid scenes once portrayed in dazzling colors, but accumulated dust, cobwebs, and moth holes have leeched the life from them. Tarnished silver candelabras bathe the room in soft, if sputtering, warm light.
Obvious exits: south, out

Tiny rainbows dot the walls and furnishings of this opulent showroom as the light of a dozen candles is refracted and amplified by myriad teardrop-shaped lead crystals in the chandelier overhead.

Atop each case, shaded oil lamps focus light downward, glinting and glittering off the items within.

The darkness here is almost tangible. Set adrift with each footfall, swirls of dust constrict the airways and threaten to choke off speech, contributing to the claustrophobic conditions of these confines.

[Malleable Majicks, Apartment]
No less opulent than the rest of the building, this one room apartment above the shop serves as both bedchamber and workshop for the artisan-owner. Lining one wall, rows of bookshelves are filled with a jumble of tomes with cryptic symbols and arcane titles.

Oddly, neither the narrow sleigh-style bed nor the workbench exhibits the signs of decrepitude to be found elsewhere in the building. You also see a small sign and a small ivory chest lined with red velvet.

The room is small and appears very sturdy. Built from roughly hewn stone and solid oak timbers, it has an aging, timeless quality. Along the walls hang a series of painted portraits. You also see a carved wooden sign, an elegant chestnut table with some stuff on it, a damaged cherry table with some stuff on it and an aging modwir chest.
Obvious exits: north, out

In the Common language, it reads:
My brother and I welcome you to Moonlight and Shadow. Our knowledge of weaponry has been gathered over several centuries, and we're proud to have you benefit from our experience. Please take a look at these tables, which contain samples of our wares. The chest holds some basic equipment useful for any adventurer. More products can be found in our respective workshops. Please do not be alarmed by my brother, Mithizura. If you do not startle him, he will most likely leave you be. ~Azerothil Arzinoth

On the chestnut table you see an elegant vultite sai, a vultite gauntlet sword, a wide-bladed vultite gladius, a slender crimson-hilted longsword, a lustrous vultite moon axe and a long-bladed vultite dagger.

[Moonlight and Shadow, Star Room]
The small workshop is full of amazing artifacts, yet everything in it is neatly organized. The stone of the walls seems to have a bright, silvery luster to it. Golden oak timbers support the tile roof, which contains a large bluish-tinted glass window. You notice a ghostly figure standing tall behind a sturdy pine counter. You also see a large steel rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: east, south

On the pine counter you see a silver vultite stiletto, a crimson-hilted claidhmore, an elegant vultite bastard sword, a massive vultite Hammer of Kai, a crimson vultite-tipped lance, an elegant crimson-hilted longsword and a well-balanced vultite katar.

[Moonlight and Shadow, Dark Room]
This room is quite large, yet seems much smaller due to a large amount of clutter. The stone of the walls have a dark hue, and the lighting is very poor. Blackened beams hold up the tile roof. A horrible screeching noise comes from the corner, where a ghostly figure works with an absurdly large grinding wheel. You also see a dented soot-black chest and a warped iron rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: north, west

In the soot-black chest you see a long vultite jeddart-axe, a silvery vultite troll-claw, a vultite two-handed sword, a shadowy vultite falchion, a serrated talon sword, a shadowy vultite trident and a black vultite katar.

[Moonlight and Shadow, Back Room]
The sturdy stone walls are their natural muted grey color in this room. Crates are piled up on one side of the room. A furnace sits in the far corner, the walls around it black with soot. Something is framed on the wall, although it's hard to see what through the blackened glass. An enormous case stands against the far wall. An anvil sits in the middle of the room.
Obvious exits: south

In the Elven language, it reads:
"Dear Mithizura, On behalf of the Ta'Vaalor military, I would like to offer my condolences to you. Your fiance, Nyllumiria, shall be remembered, always, as the heroine of the battle of..." You attempt to read further, but the blackened glass and long since dried wet splotches that have smudged the ink make it impossible to read.

Mournful Melodies - a tiny building with a dark blue ddoorway (43)

Merchant(s): Charrana

[Mournful Melodies]
Layers of dark blue velvet drape the many instrument stands in this windowless entryway, providing a rich contrast against the pale, oak-paneled walls and flooring. A velvet-draped counter rests against the back wall near a small curtained archway.

[Mournful Melodies, Workshop]
Lacking in any apparent attempt at elegant decor, this space is clearly utilitarian. One wooden stool rests between a pair of wooden crates just inside the archway, and a few tools are scattered about on some overturned boxes. A tarnished wall sconce provides the only illumination. You also see a carefully painted sign.

Upon my untimely demise I lost much of my wizardly ways. I have, however, retained some of my elemental abilities.

I am left to scrape a meager existence by restoring lost powers to items containing minor and major elemental magics. Please refrain, whilst in my shop, from mentioning the name of that murderous scoundrel of a husband who so caustically took my life.

The plaster coating on the walls is cracked and peeling, leaving the unfinished floor a mess of debris. Although the supporting boards are exposed in some places, there is still evidence of attempts to upkeep the small shop.

Mourning Mist - a small black stone cottage (47)

Merchant(s): Nerille

[Mourning Mist, Entry]
Elegant and simple, this circular room is dimly lit by tall wrought-iron candelabra along the perimeter. The walls are draped in whisper-thin black gossamer, allowing a faint glimpse of what appear to be shadowy figures on the others side of the veils. Standing on the lacquered black ebonwood floor is a brushed silver table.

Mourning of Morning - an enormous wrought iron gate (22)

[A Quaint Cottage, Living Room]
Polished redwood floors gleam in the soft illumination of brass lanterns strung from the exposed ceiling beams that lend the room a cozy, rustic air. Squat end tables stand to either side of a pair of loveseats that are positioned to face an enormous fieldstone fireplace. Rising to the ceiling above the mantel is a series of shelves that house several mannequin heads, as well as several ebony vases. A wide ladder disappears into a circular hole in the ceiling beside a lintel-topped doorway.
Obvious exits: northeast, southeast

On the wooden end table you see a thin silver tray.

On the silver tray you see a small square of fudge, a sugar-dusted round of praline, a tiny round pumpkin torte, a flaky raspberry pastry and a cinnamon and brown sugar streusel.

You help yourself to a small square of fudge.

Dense and rich, the spongy chocolate fudge is riddled with plump, sugar-laced black cherries. Delicate tendrils of caramel syrup lance across the surface of the dense, dark chocolate fudge and accent the tart black cherries encased within. 2 bites

You help yourself to a sugar-dusted round of praline. The combination of aromatic cinnamon coating, hearty interior, and crispy baked crunch makes these praline an ideal snack. The almonds have been rolled and then baked in a coating of sweet cinnamon and sugar, giving them the tasty appeal of candy. 3 bites

You help yourself to a tiny round pumpkin torte. The richness of the combination is almost decadent! The honey marries the nut and pumpkin flavors in a perfect union. 2 bites

You help yourself to a flaky raspberry pastry. Tiny raspberry seeds stick between the teeth with each bite. Airy and light, the flaky pastry is filled with a super sweet raspberry jelly. 4 bites

You help yourself to a cinnamon and brown sugar streusel. The sweet cinnamon and brown sugar streusel topping is in perfect contrast to the tangy plump raisins. The moist, buttery confection crumbles with each bite, sending juicy raisins tumbling onto your tongue. 4 bites

Veils on shelf are 7500 silvers and pinworn.

On the wooden shelf you see an embroidered ebon silk veil, a gold-veined ebon marbrinus veil, a thick black linen veil, a gauzy black veil and a thin black mourner's veil.

On the oak end table you see a folded white card sign, a cup of spiced orange tea and a white porcelain teapot.

In the Common language, it reads:
~*~ The Morning of Mourning ~*~

You pour yourself a cup of spiced orange tea. The dark, smoky flavor lingers in your nose. The bitterness is offset by a touch of milk and sugar. You pour some of your tea on the floor. A puddle of pale orange liquid forms, and then quickly evaporates. 5 sips

You pour yourself a cup of spearmint tea. The refreshing blend of spearmint and herbs clears your sinuses. The tea's refreshing fragrance and cool, exhilarating taste is delightful to the senses. You pour some of your tea on the floor. A puddle of pale green liquid forms, and then quickly evaporates. 5 sips

[A Quaint Cottage, Kitchen]
Bright white stucco walls wrap the kitchen, while exposed rafters support the thatched roof. Dried herbs dangle from the rafters and lend the air an aromatic quality that is enhanced by the scent of the tea that is brewing upon the pot-bellied cast iron stove. Filled with dishes, a wide stone sink rests beneath a window that looks out upon a garden overgrown with roses. Resting in front of the sink is a high-backed white wicker chair that has been pulled away from a low wooden table, which is pushed back against the wall.
Obvious exits: northwest

On the wooden table you see an enormous alabaster bowl, a banded onxy cameo brooch, a scale-etched copper torc and a slender malachite bangle.

In the alabaster bowl you see a pair of silver species.

[A Quaint Cottage, Office]
Floor to ceiling bookcases are filled with tomes, manuals, books, and manuscripts along the western wall opposite a series of stained glass windows. Sunlight streams through the painted panes to create a prismatic spray of color upon carpet that cushions a tidy desk and wooden chair. Fresh flowers are set into vases beneath the windows and fill the air with their heady fragrance.
Obvious exits: southwest

Items in vase are 1250 silvers, not worn, and scripted.

In the porcelain vase you see a funneled slender black lily, a long-stemmed furled niveous rose, a long-stemmed midnight blue rose, a long-stemmed velvety ebon rose and a long-stemmed ebon mournbloom.

Muirne's Makeup - a narrow and neat storefront (37)

[Muirne's Makeup, Foyer]
A narrow slip of a shop, the wares are cramped for space. Various counters and tables line both of the longer walls, and a curtained alcove at the far end parallels the front door. Copper sconces filled with jasmine-scented oil glow warmly and are mounted well above the burgundy silk wall hangings.
Obvious exits: north, out

[Muirne's Makeup, Central Shop]
A thin aisle traverses the length of the small store, passing between counters and tables bearing displays of makeup. Off to the side, a large leather case stands wedged between two of them. Indigo velvet curtains banded with burgundy silk drape partially over an alcove opening leading back to a private area.
Obvious exits: north, south

Shop uses trading.

All items in shop are 5000 silvers, not worn and have purpose.

In the leather case you see a viridian warpaint jar, a saffron warpaint jar, an ochre warpaint jar, a coal black warpaint jar, a kohl warpaint jar, a violet warpaint jar and an incarnadine warpaint jar.

You see some counters. Looking at the counters, you see a silver-edged carved maoral counter and a gilt-rubbed ornate oak counter.

[Muirne's Makeup, Studio]
Narrow shelves running from floor to ceiling flank the entire room, leaving little space for clients to gather while awaiting services. A small water mill cycles quietly, turning a tiny bladed fan that keeps the air fresh and cool, and stirring a nearby set of chimes ringing out soft musical tones.

Muirne's Multiplicity - a faded dusky blue-sashed cottage (38)

[Muirne's Multiplicity, Entry]
Greeted by a brace of pillar candles that flicker and dance from the open doorway's breeze, a warm glow suffuses the small foyer with a golden glow. Blue-sashed windows are the only hint of eccentricity in the shop's decorations, as all else is faded or earthern in tone. At the far end of the interior, a large hanging rack sits to one side of an alcove archway, the one additional bit of color in these drab surroundings.
Obvious paths: north, out

[Muirne's Multiplicity, Shop]
Without much choice, given the petite size of the building, all available space has been left open to accommodate customers with their shopping needs. A tall hanging rack is draped with a variety of colorful garments, each exquisitely tailored. Leading into a more private back room is a dark curtained archway.
Obvious paths: south

Shop uses trading.

All items are 75000 silvers, cloakworn, hold VLA for any number of items, and have purpose.

A small sign on the rack reads:

[Muirne's Multiplicity, Studio]
Scattered about is a variety of low wooden stools and plush cushions, providing resting spots for the waiting clientele. Set towards the back and framed by two thin altars holding simple stone bowls filled with wicked oil, stands a heavily scarred worktable. Soft light from the small lamps barely illuminates the setting, and a small grouping of white candles on the table top seems more for the shop owner than others present.

Multifaceted - an aged mahogany cellar door (14)

[Multifaceted]
Wavy beams of moonlight are cast off of a bejeweled gold and copper arca overtaking the musty cellar. Plain limestone walls house a series of hanging fluted glass receptacles that are individually crowned with reflective stained glass globes. Partially concealed from view, a gem-inset wooden chest and a dusty scrimshaw case are deeply wedged into the corners of some crumbling earthen ledges crawling up the opposite wall.
Obvious exits: out

My Daughter's Ilk - a two-story building (a set of wood stairs) (37)

Merchant(s): Illeya

[My Daughter's Ilk, Back Porch]
Narrow in width and length, the deck barely has room for the two raggedly cushioned chairs that sit on it. Along the railing, bougainvillea vines wrap around slats of wood, though the reddish pink blooms are dulled and nearly dead. A set of stairs leads down into the yard below, and a narrow doorway with glass framing leads inside the building.
Obvious paths: none

[My Daughter's Ilk, Office]
Cramped due to the overly large ash desk, the office could almost be called cozy, save for the skulls hanging in each corner. A large window framed by pale yellow curtains allows sunlight to stream in. Covering most of the uneven floorboards, a dusty rug bumps up in areas and catches small pieces of sediment that fall from a painted ceiling. A narrow doorway with glass framing leads outside.
Obvious exits: south

In the Common language, it reads:
~ Illeya's Services ~

Illeya will offer morphing tattoos and inky sigils one or two times during the course of the festival.

Typically, sessions will differ from one another in terms of what will be offered.

Illeya does not abide by disagreements, poor taste, arguing, or insults. If you exhibit any of those tendencies, you can be assured that she will not find it in her heart to gift you with anything more than a severe frown.

[My Daughter's Ilk]
Pale blue-grey walls splash the room with a sort of dull color, though the paint is chipping in multiple places, revealing the bare fel walls underneath. Dusty sconces hold thin ivory candles, which complement the light leaking in through dirt-caked windows. Floorboards stick up in areas, and one side of the shop looks like it might fall in on itself. Various paintings and dried flowers hang throughout the shop, and fresh air breezes through the slits in a rotting doorway.
Obvious exits: north

On the wooden table you see a single burgundy chrysanthemum, a bunch of dark purple foxgloves, a long velvety black iris, a dried thistle circlet, a black mournbloom circlet, a thorny red rose crown, a black gate-shaped candle, a slender grey taper, an ebon-swirled tall white taper, a grey-banded twisted black candle, a smoky grey sphere and a ring of golden keys.

Natural Needs - a crystal-domed chateau (55)

[Natural Needs]
Bark and whittled bits of wood litter the plank floor. A low workbench rests against one dirty wall, etched with odd diagrams. The drawings continue upward onto the walls and ceiling, scrawled with varying shades of ink or scratched into the plaster. A carving knife, apparently hurled with some force, protrudes from the door that leads outside. You also see a large hole in the floor with jagged, fresh edges.
Obvious exits: out

Twigs are 11902, not worn, have purpose and are scripted. Cases are 20000 silvers, beltworn, hold MA for any number of items, and have purpose.

[Natural Needs]
Plunged into near darkness, it takes a moment to discern the rough-hewn stone walls that surround this small space. Apparently the craft of someone mad or intensely bored, individual flakes litter the floor, each reflecting the methodical chipping of the solid rock that has formed the room. Bottle-lined shelving makes the cramped cell almost unbearably cluttered. A steep ramp, formed of the discarded fragments, offers an escape from the dank, dim chamber.
Obvious exits: none

Items on shelving are 25000 silvers.

On the set of shelving you see a stout invar jug, a rusty twisted bottle, a crude wooden bottle, a portly brown bottle, a purple turnip-shaped bottle, an aquamarine blown glass bottle, a simple wooden bottle, a slender plain silver bottle, a small copper bottle, a slender black fel bottle, a rich green glass bottle, a green glass bottle, a blue imflass bottle, a twisted steel bottle, a lacquered ebonwood flask, a small square silver flask, a dark ironwood flask, a partially charred bottle, a white and blue glass bottle, a long-necked amber glass bottle and a small bulbous black glass jug.

Natural Selection - a rough-carved small modwir cabin (26)

[Natural Selection]
A polished floor of interlocked modwir and maoral spreads across the shop. Tapestry-weave banners are hung along the burnished oak walls, interspersed with glass-paned lanterns. A short plank stairway leads up to a raised platform at the back of the area. You also see a glass-topped thick haon case.

[Natural Selection, Hardwoods]
A railing of carved bone surrounds the raised platform. Interlocked modwir and maoral tiles cover the floor in an elaborate flower motif. A short plank stairway leads down to the remainder of the shop. A silver-edged pale haon plaque is hung on the rear wall of the platform. You also see a brass-handled solid oak cabinet and a four-legged round black fel table with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: down

Necking - a small grey granite boutique (47)

Merchant(s): Sylnorilla

[Necking, Entry]
Lengths of sheer charcoal gossamer are suspended from the ceiling of this circular room, and the area is softly lit by smoky glass sconces affixed to the black willow walls. A sable-covered chaise lounge provides a comfortable resting place for weary shoppers, and a spindly silver table bears refreshments. You also see a silver-inlaid mistwood door.
Obvious exits: west, out

On the silver table you see a raspberry tart and a cup of orange spice tea.

You help yourself to a white chocolate raspberry tart.
A touch of raspberry liqueur and curlicues of shaved white chocolate garnish this decadent treat.
Wedded to a buttery shortbread crumb crust, the rich, creamy tart titillates the taste buds as it melts in your mouth, exposing the plump, fresh raspberries within.
4 bites

You pour yourself a cup of orange spice tea.
A delicate citrus note mingles with the bright tea aroma.
Marked by its cleansing pungency and lingering sweetness, this remarkable tea is enhanced by a touch of orange peel.
You pour some of your tea on the floor. A puddle of amber liquid forms, and then quickly evaporates.
5 sips

[Necking, Circling the Throat]
A well-lit ebonwood counter runs the length of the back wall, flanked on either side by a twisted wire tree and a brushed silver candelabra. A white snowcat fur rug is soft underfoot, covering the majority of a cool grey marble floor. Hanging from the watered black silk walls is a silver-embossed vellum sign.
Obvious exits: north, east

In the Common language, it reads:
Pick your chains, ribbons, and necklaces here. Move into the next room and select a pendant to slide onto the neckwear, thus completing your own custom piece. ~Sylnorilla

On the wire tree you see a knotted piece of twine, a tawny leather cord, a black silk cord, a braided hemp necklace, a black silk ribbon choker, a thin white satin cord, a red lace ribbon and a purple satin ribbon.

On the silver candelabra you see a thin silver box chain, a sleek silver necklace, a heavy silver-link chain, a twisted silver chain and a delicate silver mesh choker.

[Necking, Upon the Chest]
Several oval tables are placed at intervals around the room, each one well-lit by a dedicated translucent glaes sconce affixed to the closest wall. The ceiling is painted black, imbedded with tiny silver stars that glimmer like a miniature galaxy, and a heavy grey velvet curtain hangs from a pointed granite arch.
Obvious exits: south

Items in this room are 3500 silvers, not worn and serve purpose.

You see several oval tables. Looking at the tables, you see a black oval table, a white oval table and a grey oval table.

A Neglected House - an old neglected house (4)

[A Neglected House, Porch]
Stone steps provide a sturdy divide between the wildness of the yard and the sagging boards of the house's porch. The boards underfoot are warped and grey, made so by age and weather. On one side, a two-person swing precariously dangles from the ceiling at an odd angle on a single chain, the other having snapped, while a raised bench is set opposite, complete with a nearby water pump and rusted basin. You also see a splintered white door and a set of lichen-covered steps.
Obvious exits: none

Gloves are 3000 and worn on the hands. Boots are 5000 and worn on the feet. Both hold VSA for a couple of items and have purpose.

On the bench you see some stained gardening gloves and a pair of cracked leather boots.

[A Neglected House, Sitting Room]
The couch, chair, and ottoman in this room may have had some measure of color in the fabric covering them, but it was long ago lost under layers of creeping mildew that have created their own bland palette. A fireplace topped with a flourished mantel is devoid of ashes, and the cleaniness of its brick lining suggest it has never been used. At the end of the couch sits a round end table boasting a soot-shaded oil lamp with the flame turned low, offering little light with which to navigate. You also see a sheer-curtained doorway and a splintered white door.
Obvious exits: none

Book is 5000 silvers, not worn, holds VSA for one item, has a show and purpose. Statue is 1500 silvers, not worn and has purpose.

On the flourished mantel you see a small leather-bound book and a petite porcelain statuette.

Show on book:
The cover of the book is faded and discolored, but the title embossed into the top of the cover can still be plainly read. It reads: A Compendium of the Proper Lady's Rules of Civility.

Gloves are 2000, worn on the hands, hold VSA for one item, and have purpose.

On the end table you see a pair of mildewed lace half-gloves.

[A Neglected House, Bedroom]
Curtains draped from copper rods fall in folds that have collected so much dust they seem as miniature rivers of grey fuzz. Only a sliver of an opening between the panels offers a peek out of the dirty window, but it is hardly enough to permit any useful amount of light. A bed with tucked sheets and quilt stands against the back wall, a corner of the bedding pulled back in what would be an inviting gesture were the linens not so soiled and musty. You also see a dusty set of drawers, a tall dry-rotted armoire and a sheer-curtained doorway.
Obvious exits: none

In the set of drawers you see a pair of moth-eaten silk pantaloons, some thick knitted cotton socks, a cracked labadorite locket, a tarnished warped silver ring and a faded violet peony-stitched handkerchief.

The Painted Teacup - a prim whitewashed shop (40)

[The Painted Teacup]
Frosted glass globes bind a swirl of navy blue silk into place upon the high ceiling and at each corner, where they drape in gentle pleats to the starburst-patterned floor. Stained glass windows adorn the fronts of the mahogany cupboards that line the eastern wall, while silk-covered tables are surrounded by several wicker-backed chairs in the room's center. A series of carved birch shelves displaying sets of flatware stand opposite an open oblong door that leads into the shop's workroom.
Obvious exits: out

Goblets in cupboard are 750 silvers.

In the mahogany cupboard you see a pale blue glass goblet, a deep green glass goblet, an ebon blown-glass goblet, an amber blown-glass goblet, a sage green glass goblet, an opaque white glass goblet, a pale pink glass goblet, a saffron yellow glass goblet and a cobalt blue glass goblet.

Dishes are 750 silvers; silverware is 250 per piece. Plates can hold a very small amount on top. All pieces are not worn and have purpose.

You see several silk-covered tables. Looking at the tables, you see a green silk-topped table, an ebon silk-topped table, a nut brown silk-topped table and a pale blue silk-topped table.

On the silk-topped table you see a glossy white porcelain bowl, a pearl-edged white porcelain plate, a golden pearl-handled fork, a gold pearl-handled spoon and a gold pearl-handled knife.

On the silk-topped table you see an alum filigree spoon, an alum filigree knife, a ebon blown-glass bowl, a round ebon porcelain plate, an alum filigree fork and a round ebon porcelain saucer.

On the silk-topped table you see a peridot-inset faenor filigree spoon, a peridot-inset faenor filigree knife, an amber blown-glass bowl, a square nut brown porcelain plate, a peridot-inset faenor filigree fork and a square nut brown porcelain saucer.

On the silk-topped table you see a sterling silver knife, a sterling silver spoon, a pale blue blown-glass bowl, a petal-shaped blue porcelain plate, a petal-shaped blue porcelain saucer and a sterling silver fork.

[The Painted Teacup, Workroom]
Neat and tidy, the small workroom is illuminated by carefully shielded oil lanterns. Tiny cylinders set into the ceiling provide ample ventilation from the noxious fumes of glaze and porcelain paints, which are arranged by color inside a locked glass-front cabinet. A small potter's wheel is set in the middle of the room and surrounded by benches, while a compact kiln occupies most of the eastern wall directly opposite an open oblong door.

Parazonium - a very small dingy stone building (6)

A Passing Fancy - a dark vine-covered building (4)

Merchant(s): Neptunera

[A Passing Fancy, Entry]
Lustrous black marble flooring meets vivid crimson hued walls, interrupted only by a curtained archway. Thin spirals of smoke from burning sticks of incense intermingle with the thick, heady fumes of the log fire adding to the murky atmosphere. Mysteriously empty polished brass cages hang from twisted hooks, swaying slightly in an undetectable breeze. In the middle of the room, a wickedly curved black iron spike is topped by a crystal tray. You also see a steep spiral staircase.
Obvious exits: out

On the crystal tray you see a goblet of full-bodied claret.

You pour yourself a goblet of full-bodied claret.
The metallic tang of the claret tastes like the still, warm blood of a fresh kill.
The simmering claret settles into your stomach and fills your body with warmth.
You feel tension draining away, giving way to a very relaxed state.
6 quaffs.

[A Passing Fancy, Upstairs]
A black iron chandelier hangs from the dark ceiling, flinging facets of eerie light around the room. Gold-framed oil paintings adorn the walls, their abstract scenes subtly lit from below by several groups of candles on circular black plates. Additional candles provide the only other source of light, their dripping crimson wax forming interlacing patterns. A set of neatly stacked velvet-lined boxes rest discreetly in the far corner of the room next to a steep spiral staircase. You also see a black-lettered notice.

Pewter Palace - a small whitewashed house (27)

Pins and Ties - a fenced red brick shop covered in dirge-vaon and ivy creepers (30)

[Pins and Ties]
A polished marble floor stretches into an adjoining room, the pale grey stone touched with hints of black and pink.

A Pious Habit - a small granite-walled chapel (42)

[A Pious Habit]
Thick tapestries faded to muted shades cover the granite block walls of this modest vestry, and a lone crumpled tapestry, half fallen from its supports, pools in a shadowed corner. The gleam of samite is visible down a narrow hallway where the bulk of the temple's vestments are stored. Framed between scorched half-round columns beneath a pair of lancet windows, a row of haon pegs holds a selection of habiliments surprisingly well preserved against decay and rot.
Obvious exits: out

[A Pious Habit, Storage]
Heavy stone blocks are shrouded in a layer of dust that covers the floor in a haze. The recent passage of footprints scribes a cleaner path between the ladder leading to the hatched door overhead and various shelves. A heavy haon-bound chest has been set right in the middle of the room, as if to deliberately block further passage. Some ambitious soul has made it past, as evidenced by the trailing ends of broken cobwebs and a begrimed overturned trunk behind the chest.

Cobwebs drape from scorched granite, and a thick layer of dust nearly hides the layer of soot and char on the ledge beneath a narrow window. Thick plants occlude any chance of seeing through the musty panes of glass. A scattering of tiny pellets and an odd swirl of dried grasses indicate the storage room is not completely unused. Several storage boxes have been stacked against the northern wall, though a musty storage chest has been pulled forward with its lid pried free and tossed carelessly aside.

Pirenia's Puppeteer - a plain pallid stone building with a colorful orange awning (57)

[Pirenia's Puppeteer]
Colorful swathes of linen and gossamer drape from the vaulted ceiling of the large building, fluttering with each passing breeze that filters in through the upper windows. The cool stone walls are left unpainted, their surface a pallid hue as they create the minimal boundaries needed in the otherwise open environment. Stacked crates, display tables, and various rows of wooden hooks display a plethora of puppets. A narrow wooden door painted with a blue cloud is nestled into the eastern wall, and a large stone archway leads into a side room.

The Prop Closet - a tiny warped wooden shed (13)

[The Prop Closet]
The chief decorative style of the musty room is cobweb, with perhaps a light touch of dust added for contrast. A cracked trunk fights for space with an ironbound chest, and behind them stands sagging shelves. In one corner is a tall mildewed barrel, which lofts over a tilted oak desk. Spider webs fasten wall to wall, wall to ceiling, and wall to floor with thick strands that choke out nearly every angle in the room. Central to everything is a folded wooden sign scribbled with chalk on slate.

Ramshackle Cottage - a ramshackle wooden cottage with a red door (17)

[Ramshackle Cottage, Main Room]
Every surface is covered with a thick layer of dust. A lone white wax candle flickers on tarnished stand, the light illuminating the dust floating and dancing in the draughts that flow through the cracks between the warped wooden planks of the wall. In the one uncluttered corner of the room next to a small trapdoor, there is a dirty linen box and a shapeless cloth pack. Tacked onto the wall next to a rickety wooden door is a dog-eared piece of parchment.
Obvious exits: out

In the Common language, it reads:
Hello! All the bags in this room are for the discerning individual when regular clothes just don't cut it! Why wear cumbersome, tight, and itchy leathers when you can wear a comfortable and spacious sack? Is your acne getting you down? Or maybe you were just born ugly? There is nothing a bag over your head won't solve! I even painted some of them myself! Disclaimer: If you leave it on too long and suffocate that is your own fault.

Bags in box are 5000 silvers and headworn.

In the linen box you see a brown paper bag, a white paper bag, a torn paper bag, a white paper bag and a brown paper bag.

[Ramshackle Cottage, Cellar]
A precariously steep flight of stone steps leads up from what can only be termed a dank hole. The air is thick and stale, and the pools of stagnant water on the muddy floor appear to be breeding grounds for all kinds of unpleasant things. An oil lamp hangs in the center of the cracked and peeling ceiling, the little light that it provides casting strange and sinister shadows on the damp and mildewing walls. Tacked onto the wall next to some rusty hooks and some tarnished nails is a dog-eared piece of parchment.
Obvious exits: none

In the Common language, it reads:
Well if you really insist on using a bag to put things in, here you go. I think it's a real waste of a nice bag, so I only put my spare bags that weren't no good for anything else down here.

On the rusty hooks you see a dirty canvas pack, an ink-stained satchel, a weathered linen haversack, a dusty old knapsack and a lumpy old backpack.

[Ramshackle Cottage, Kitchen]
An aroma of overcooked cabbage pervades the musty air in this tiny and cluttered room. A burning brazier in the corner of the room provides light, but for some reason no warmth. A chipped porcelain sink piled high with dirty dishes leaks a steady dribble of murky water over the cracked tiles. The shade created by a cracked trestle table provides a suitable place for various mushrooms and fungi to grow. Tacked onto the wall next to a rickety wooden door is a dog-eared piece of parchment.

[Sewing Room]
Colorful bolts of fabric, rolls of dyed leather, and a multitude of beaded trimmings cover the entire northern wall of the small sewing room. A pair of twin honey oak cabinets frame a small doorway, while a small cherrywood curio rests to the left of a muslin-draped mannequin. Suspended above the tool-covered worktable, a web-like display of various ribbons, laces, and cording sways gently to and fro. You also see a narrow flight of stairs.
Obvious exits: west

[A Tiny Bedroom]
Pale rose and silver satin striped brocade drape the four posters of a pillow-laden canopied bed. A large plush white fur rug covers most of the bare wooden floors, while expensive fabric garments adorn the shelves and peek out from the partially opened drawer of a scroll-topped white ash armoire. Soft shadows from ornately-wrought candle sconces play across the features of the dimly lit room.
Obvious exits: east

You see a trio of narrow shelves. Looking at the shelves, you see a long wide bottom shelf, a long wide middle shelf and a long narrow top shelf.

Riverboat Taer - a marooned riverboat (28)

[Riverboat Taer, Bow]
Shading winking waters, The Eye of Taer offers a glimpse of the town of Velathae past her salt-stained pillars and heavily sloped roof. A simple wooden wheel remains turned into the sandbar, and beyond it, a shadowy overhang offers access to the ship's skeleton.
Obvious paths: out

[Riverboat Taer, Overhang]
Motes of dust from the ship's bow beyond hang carelessly from spindles of light that infiltrate an intricate array of tile work acting as ballast to boxy stacks of tilted eaves overhead. Beyond their scant incandescence, one large pillar, illuminated by waterlogged silk and paper screens, dominates the screeching vessel's tight hall like an unsure captain. Arranged haphazardly, small collections of different oils and bleached fish bones scatter beneath, like offerings to an ancient deity. You also see a spiral stair descending into darkness and a hand-printed sign.
Obvious exits: north

In the Common language, it reads:
Please note that weapons found throughout the riverboat have been enchanted to the equivalent of vultite.

[Riverboat Taer, Garden]
A twisting labyrinth of interlocking river stones, the center of this tiny garden submits to an expansive empty fountain. Petite withered trees with crinkled black fruit immortalized at their feet flank the silent font, while cuts in the riverboat's roof allow constant streaming light through winged doors fashioned from the tile. Devoid of its latch, one bangs eternally against its frame in the ship's peaked roof, the metallic sound ricocheting from a rack of sai-styled gardening tools. You also see a luminous silver silk screen and a ghostly erithian monk.
Obvious exits: north, south

On the tool rack you see a sleek drakar sai, a pale blue rhimar sai, a dark blue zorchar jitte, a storm grey vultite sai and a dusky gornar jitte.

[Riverboat Taer, Stern]
Lined from paper screens to wooden stern in square straw mats, a perpetual wash of subdued candlelight flickers from a raised dais at one apex of this small chamber. The scintillating waves of color refract across a chipped tanik-framed mirror opposite the altar, tumbling over a neatly folded old silken pad piled with faded tightly woven blankets. Chalky dust, like the fibers of spent incense, raise from each gust of air that penetrates small slats gouged high in the furthest wall. You also see a weathered antique cabinet.
Obvious exits: none

Harnesses and sashes are 25000 silvers, beltworn, hold SA for a couple of items, have purpose and show descriptions.

In the antique cabinet you see a heavy black wool harness, a red-trimmed black silk harness, a muted green watered silk sash and a silk and cloth-of-gold sash.

a heavy black wool harness:
A heavy black wool harness made of fine silk and tied into elaborate knotwork is designed to be worn on the left hip and is easily able to be attached to armor or a belt. Secured by the elaborate knotwork are two scabbards. The first, a steel-capped oak scabbard, is set for a quick draw, and the other, a simple faewood scabbard, is positioned slightly behind and at a slight angle down.

a red-trimmed black silk harness:
A red-trimmed black silk harness made of fine silk and tied into elaborate knotwork is designed to be worn on the left hip and is easily able to be attached to armor or a belt. Secured by the elaborate knotwork are two scabbards. The first, a ruby-inlaid polished ivory scabbard, is set for a quick draw, and the other, a silver-capped bleached bone scabbard, is positioned slightly behind and at a slight angle down.

a muted green watered silk sash:
A muted green watered silk sash made of fine silk and decorated with masterful skill winds securely around two scabbards. The sash is set so that both will rest off the left hip. The first, silver-capped carved ivory scabbard, is set slightly forward and lower than the second, silver-inlaid rowan scabbard. Both are angled for a quick draw in combat.

a silk and cloth-of-gold sash:
A silk and cloth-of-gold sash made of fine silk and decorated with masterful skill winds securely around two scabbards. The sash is set so that both will rest off the left hip. The first, a brushed steel-capped ivory scabbard, is set slightly forward and lower than the second, a lacquered onyx-banded ebonwood scabbard. Both are angled for a quick draw in combat.

[Riverboat Taer, Interior Hull]
Branching left and right on a dramatic incline that riddles dark modwir flooring with deep crags, the northbound passage splits into two narrow corridors. Deep-bottomed lanterns sway from steel cables beside the portal, their hexagonal sides scarred with ancient black lumps of useless hardened fuel. The ceaseless clacking and screeching is overwhelming in this portion of the vessel, where a blanket of chilly wet wind wraps everything in its dank atmosphere. You also see a tall carved maoral table with some stuff on it, a spiral stair ascending to the main deck and a large placard.
Obvious exits: northeast, south, northwest

In the Common language, it reads:

[Riverboat Taer, Dark Ring]
Sagging toward its broadside, a trickling seepage of river water constantly oozes through once austere modwir, leaving a semi-circular ring below loudly gnashing paddles. Like a dark reptilian womb, the only light in this tiny mat-laden enclave comes diffused from the crimson paper screen facing the center hall. A steel rack populated by dull katars and knuckle-blades resides against the starboard wall, while the remainder of the wide quadrate houses only an invariable swirl of slimy water that raises the stench of rotting mud. You also see a ghostly erithian monk.
Obvious exits: southwest, northwest

On the steel rack you see a vultite katar, a gornar knuckle-blade, a drakar katar, a rhimar knuckle-blade, a vultite knuckle-blade and a zorchar katar.

[Riverboat Taer, Infirmary]
Bereft of decoration, neatly folded blankets and primitive surgical tools sweep a shelf spanning the entire length of this dim cavernous hold. Permanently disabled with webs, grimy skylights terraced into the rippled ceiling lend the impression of undulation as the boat rocks constantly, raising the dank stench of rot. Beside one porthole, the screeching rivals a horde of vereri as serviceable pulleys thrust broken oars toward the higher side of the shore, scraping down mud and debris with each jab. You also see a ghostly erithian monk.
Obvious exits: southeast, southwest

On the long shelf you see a vultite troll-claw, a drakar troll-claw, a gornar troll-claw, a zorchar yierka-spur, a rhimar yierka-spur and a vultite yierka-spur.

a vultite yierka-spur        29000     Brawling

[Riverboat Taer, Sparring Ring]
Bright with blazing candlelight and natural illumination dithering in from outward-opening slats, this expansive chamber is wide and long enough to house a square of several giants. Numerous rolled bundles of cloth line the western wall, while the wood-paneled eastern front boasts an extensive rack of clawlike hand-to-hand weapons and makeshift sparring ring. A forceful oar system roils over the river continuously, working tirelessly though the riverboat remains stubbornly in place despite its diligence. You also see a ghostly erithian monk, a woolen-backed white paper screen and a steel rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: northeast, southeast

On the steel rack you see a rhimar razorpaw, a drakar tiger-claw, a gornar tiger-claw, a vultite tiger-claw, a zorchar slap-slasher and a vultite razorpaw.

[Riverboat Taer, Galley]
Steel bracers and vambraces haphazardly suspended from dust-laden racks shift noisily with each flux of the water outside. Faint trickles of incandescence streaming through gouges in one weak modwir plank flicker over a simple grill-like apparatus beneath the displays, sliding like apparitions through the pungent cloud of fish oil to inspect the blades. Beneath the slats, a metallic swooping churns noisily from staves protruding a round porthole opposite a pulley system of cranking wheels. You also see a tanik-framed pale cerulean screen and a large placard.
Obvious exits: north, south

In the Common language, it reads:
Items on display here are intended for those experienced in two weapon combat. You must have trained in two weapon combat a minimum of 10 times to make use of the bracers and a minimum of 50 times to make use of the vambraces.

[Riverboat Taer, Cold Storage]
Stone slabs march in three straight lines down the center of this chilly cabin, while a procession of metal pegs protrudes starkly from the starboard palisade. Swaying on each buck of the ship's keel, the suspended steel vambraces and bracers deepen the thumping sound emanating from the window-sized opening leading to the riverbed, from whence the grey stench of muddy freshwater crabs steals in. You also see a large placard and a water-stained moldy violet screen.
Obvious exits: north

In the Common language, it reads:

Rolarg's Abode - a wooded path lending to a scorched log cabin (9)

Merchant(s): Rolarg

[Rolarg's Abode, Porch]
Dense foliage surrounds the porch in front of the log cabin, which isn't very spacious, but several chairs offer comfortable seating. Breaks in the trees up above allow some moonlight to shine down upon the porch, however, a thick fog makes it difficult to see much beyond the cabin. The surface of the logged structure is stained with soot, and it appears to have suffered severely from fire damage.
Obvious paths: northeast, west

[Rolarg's Abode, Great Room]
The interior of the cabin has the smell of burnt flesh lingering in the air and faint tendrils of smoke seem to float endlessly about the room. A dark wooden ladder with several broken rungs leads up to the loft above the great room, while a cracked glass window rests along the back wall allowing moonlight to pass through. Resting over a small fireplace in the corner of the room is a wide ironwood mantel.
Obvious exits: out

[Rolarg's Abode, Backyard]
Standing behind the log cabin is a single apple tree resting in the center of the backyard, which has a steel-banded wooden barrel resting underneath it. A pile of hay rests along the side of the cabin just under a cracked glass window. A broken fence prevents any further travel beyond the backyard, however, the remains of a scorched cornfield can be seen through the gaps in the fencing. A thick fog blankets the entire area, making it difficult to see through the forest around the cabin.
Obvious paths: southwest

In the wooden barrel you see a golden yellow mana-infused apple, a red and green mana-infused apple, a shiny red mana-infused apple, a light yellow mana-infused apple, a dark green mana-infused apple, a soft green mana-infused apple, a bruised red mana-infused apple, a hole-ridden mana-infused apple and a long-stemmed mana-infused apple.

Root Cellar - a decrepit wooden fence supporting a hanging gate (5)

Merchant(s): Rowynna

[Backyard]
A tall wooden fence encloses this small yard. Dry leaves in oranges, browns, and red cover most of the grass. Near the far side of the yard, a hinged wooden door leading to an underground storm cellar stands propped open.
Obvious paths: none

[A Rickety Ladder]
Splintering handrails have been attached to the door at the top of this moss-covered ladder. Sunlight bounces off strands of cobweb that cover virtually every unsturdy step, though the space is far too deep to make out any details of the cellar below. Roots from the surrounding trees and plants tunnel through cracks in the packed earth, groping for a hold on the ladder.
Obvious exits: up, down

[Root Cellar]
The floor of this damp room is hard, packed earth. Knotted wooden boards reinforce the walls, and a few ratty old blankets have been tossed on the floor. A row of clay vases lines the back wall, and a rickety ladder leads up out of the musty cellar. You also see a flower list tacked to the wall.
Obvious exits: none

Shop uses trading.

In the Common language, it reads:
The floral items in the vases are the only things around here that smell nice. Rowynna will be stopping in during the Festival to customize these items with various other flowers. She will use only one kind per floral arrangement, though she may have a scrap of ribbon to add.

In the Common language, it reads:
Rowynna has the following flowers available:

Buttercup, carnation, daffodil, daisy, dragonstalk, flamestalk, freesia, gardenia, iris, lily, magnolia, monkeyflower, moonflower, mournbloom, orchid, poppy, rose, sunflower, tulip, violet, zinnia, honeysuckle, crocus, bleeding-heart, amaranth, phlox, goldenrod, butterflyweed, jasmine, nightshade, heather, lilac, angelica, Imaera's Lace, plumeria, heliotrope, hibiscus, ginger blossom, cothinar flower, orange blossom, and snapdragon.

You see some ratty old blankets. Looking at the blankets, you see a fraying green wool blanket, a threadbare brown wool blanket and a tattered red wool blanket.

Aprons on green wool blanket are 25000 silvers, frontworn, hold VSA for a couple items and have purpose.

On the green wool blanket you see a white cotton apron, a blue cotton apron, a green cotton apron, a yellow cotton apron and a pink cotton apron.

Rozenwyn's Recreations - a tiny shop surrounded on two sides by a tall ivy-covered wall (51)

[Rozenwyn's Recreations, Front]
Diamonds of black and white onyx pattern the floor, surrounding a large black diamond at the center.

Black and white onyx tiles swirl in an elliptical spiral design leading to back of the shop, near the opening to another room.

[Rozenwyn's Regalia, Shop]
Garlands of garnet and amethyst entwined with shriveled mournblooms loop around the perimeter where the walls meet the ceiling.

Runty Hog Tavern - a small tavern (50)

[Runty Hog Tavern]
A heavy-beamed low ceiling and smoky air give this tavern a cramped feeling. Extending across one end of the room is a large cedar bar, a doorway leading to the kitchen open behind it.

[Rustic Overtones]
Rough grey wooden walls surround a packed dirt floor covered with a colorful hand-tied rug. In spite of the unsophisticated appearance, the small shop has a cozy feel.

A large round table stands in the center of the room and an ebon-stained wooden hutch towers against one wall near a rune-carved witchwood tea cart. Many indecipherable scents mingle together to create a fragrant, yet not overwhelming, aroma. You also see a deep mahogany door and a claw-footed stool with some stuff on it.

Scents of Death - a windowless stone building (32)

Merchant(s): Danekas

[Scents of Death, Parlor]
With nary a window to this tiny parlor, light comes only from a few flickering torches high upon the walls. The edges of a barred door show beneath a woven tapestry hanging from one wall, and a small widowwood door leads out the back. Atop a stack of ebonwood coffins, a candle illuminates a variety of scattered bottles and vials. Similar wares are found on a shelf above as well. A simple fireplace is the only other furnishing in the sparse parlor. You also see a heavy cypress door.
Obvious exits: none

Atop the coffin, a variety of containers vye for space with a small sign.

Items on coffins are 50000 silvers.

On the ebonwood coffins you see a small sign, an icy blue porcelain vase, a polished granite urn, a tubular brass container, an aged darkened bone amphora, an aged ivory ampulla, an onyx reliquary, a jade green moonstone vessel, a blackened vultite decanter, a leaded crystal flagon and a crimson blown glass alembic.

In the Common language, it reads:
Phials have a small sampling of my wares and are located on the ebonwood shelf. All other containers have approximately forty uses of extravagant and unique concoctions. Please READ each one to learn more of the scent. If you are looking for last year's scents, they are downstairs in my workroom. I will also be by occasionally to work on the containers and perhaps customize a scent or two for ones chosen. ~Danekas

Phial is 5000 silvers. Bottle is 25000 silvers.

On the simple fireplace you see a scrap of torn parchment, a pale green phial and a pale green bottle.

In the Common language, it reads:
I dreamt a vision, dark and swirling. Dark scents suffocating a bright note of apple. But inspiration is a fickle mistress, and she left me alone and desolate, with only this, the distilled essence of crisp green apples. ~Danekas

[Danekas' Cemetery]
Enclosed by a tall stone wall lined with even taller cypress trees, this small area seems abandoned. In the back corner, blooming widowwood shrubs cluster in the dank shadows of the trees, while other shrubs, grasses, and flowers fill almost every inch of available space. A few worn marble headstones climbing with dirge-vaon and ivy are barely visible amidst the overgrowth of flora. A small widowwood door leads back into the windowless stone building.
Obvious paths: none

These sturdy shrubs are in excellent shape and obviously well-cared for. Silver-backed deep green leaves cluster along the blue-black wood. Fragrant lop-sided, white blossoms and pale blue berries are centered within the clusters of leaves.

A scratched snowglobe:
The clear bubble contains a detailed scene in miniature. A large ebon gate leads into a festival area filled with wagons and tents. Tiny little skeleton bones are scattered along the main road which bends in a circle towards where a ghostly flower girl floats. A minute gnome is sitting in the bucket of what appears to be a catapult with others nearby gathered around a mini kobold with a pumpkin on its head. Groups of diminutive people of all races in autumn-hued festive attire mingle with others dressed in outlandish costumes. One small boy is looking into a teeny glass bubble which is cupped in the palm of his hand.

Sieldra's Rustic Greenhouse - a vacant greenhouse (18)

[Sieldra's Rustic Greenhouse]
Scattered about the floor, a heavy layer of cedar mulch muffles the sound of footsteps. Raggedly pruned tiny trees arranged in various sizes of unglazed clay dishes adorn the rows of weathered maoral shelves. A warped table leans precariously, almost blocking the open door. Soft light filters through the shattered glass panels, casting ragged shadows on the uneven rows of straggling vines, dead plants and barren plant stakes.
Obvious exits: east, out

Items on table are 2000 silvers. Daggers are edged weapons; shears are not worn.

On the warped table you see a curved pruning dagger, a razor sharp skinning dagger, a forked dagger and a pair of broken shears.

a forked dagger with a snakeskin hilt.

Items on shelves are 20000 silvers and have shows.

On the maoral shelves you see a miniature desert garden, a miniature mountain scene, a miniature woodland meadow, a miniature modwir tree, a clump of miniature aspen trees and a miniature haon tree.

a miniature desert garden in a pitted clay dish:
You see a desert in miniature. No greenery or moss spoils the perfection of this tiny desert scene. Inside the confines of its container, small stones become sun bleached boulders lying as if scattered by nature. A twisted and broken branch becomes the bleached stump of a huge tree standing alone in the sun blasted sand near a parched pebble strewn stream bed.

a miniature mountain scene in a blue glazed bowl:
Cupped in the shallow confines of its container lies a perfect miniature mountain scene. Carefully chosen rocks have been placed together to resemble a sharply jagged mountain range. A primeval forest of spiky ephlox moss marches down the steep rubble slopes of these miniature mountains. On the pebbled skirts of the mountains stands a tiny shrine of rough grey stone.

a miniature woodland meadow in a rough stone tray:
Inside the container rests a perfect miniature woodland meadow. A grove of miniature aspen and alder trees overhangs the wildflower flecked verge of a crystal clear woodland pond. A steeply banked stream meanders through the miniature woods and falls with a delicate chuckle over flat mossy stones into the crystal pond. Small gold and orange fish dart and feed in the translucent depths of the crystal clear pond.

a bonsai modwir tree in a mossy pottery dish:
You see the perpendicular shape of a miniature modwir tree. An air of stillness surrounds this tiny tree. The grey scales in the bark and deep vertical grooves of white sap seeping into a thick bole give the tree an appearance of age. The branches whorl around the thick trunk and arch upward into a canopy of fine fuzzy needles. Long green pinecones hang in the pale foliage. Heavy green moss covers the base of the tree and overgrows the edges of the pottery dish.

a clump of miniature aspen trees in a long porcelain tray:
You see a clump of miniature aspen trees with white trunks. Five slender trees stand familiarly close and light catches on the surfaces of the almost heart shaped leaves. Two trees lean at slight angles, the other three stand straight, all, reach upwards, white limbs inter-tangled, their leaves ready to flutter in any vagrant breeze. It is possible to see that they grow from one fallen tree, now almost overgrown with lichens and mosses.

a miniature haon tree in a heavy stone bowl:
You see a single miniature haon tree in miniature perfection. The soft greyish purple bole is almost two hands around, straight and thick. It continues to a wide, lushly spreading canopy of elliptical almost luminous leaves. The miniature haon tree stands in its heavy stone bowl exuding timeless and solitary quiet. Exposed roots twine and hold the mossy soil, reaching out to the same circumference as its rounded canopy. Dark green, velvety moss covers the surrounding soil.

[Sieldra's Storage Shed]
Rakes, scythes, and hoes dangle from pegs in the wall near the tool rack. The air here is humid but not oppressive. A corroded spade with a shattered handle rests on the work bench covered in cobwebs. Bits of broken clay and moldy seed from the rotting and split bags litter the uneven floor.
Obvious exits: north, west

On the tool rack you see a chipped and rusted handaxe, a rusted vultite machete and a bent and rusted pitchfork.

[Sieldra's Neglected Garden]
Plants that were at one time full of beauty and life now lay wilted and seem to exude an air of death. A long forgotten topiary is overrun with vines and hovering insects. A battered and rusty wheelbarrow leans to one side near an overturned crate. Red spores from the prolific black mushrooms fill the fetid air.
Obvious exits: south

Items on crate are 20000 silvers and have shows.

On the overturned crate you see a miniature modwir tree, a miniature mountain scene, a miniature desert garden, a miniature woodland meadow, a clump of miniature aspen trees and a miniature haon tree.

a miniature modwir tree in a dusty black clay dish:
You see the perpendicular shape of a miniature modwir tree. An air of stillness surrounds this tiny tree. The grey scales in the bark and deep vertical grooves of white sap seeping into a thick bole give the tree an appearance of age. The branches whorl around the thick trunk and arch upward into a canopy of fine fuzzy needles. Long green pinecones hang in the pale foliage. Heavy green moss covers the base of the tree and overgrows the edges of the pottery dish.

a clump of miniature aspen trees in a multicolored clay pot:
You see a clump of miniature aspen trees with white trunks. Five slender trees stand familiarly close and light catches on the surfaces of the almost heart shaped leaves. Two trees lean at slight angles, the other three stand straight, all, reach upwards, white limbs inter-tangled, their leaves ready to flutter in any vagrant breeze. It is possible to see that they grow from one fallen tree, now almost overgrown with lichens and mosses.

a miniature haon tree in a dull red clay bowl:
You see a single miniature haon tree in miniature perfection. The soft greyish purple bole is almost two hands around, straight and thick. It continues to a wide, lushly spreading canopy of elliptical almost luminous leaves. The miniature haon tree stands in its heavy stone bowl exuding timeless and solitary quiet. Exposed roots twine and hold the mossy soil, reaching out to the same circumference as its rounded canopy. Dark green, velvety moss covers the surrounding soil.

a miniature mountain scene in a slightly cracked glazed bowl:
Cupped in the shallow confines of its container lies a perfect miniature mountain scene. Carefully chosen rocks have been placed together to resemble a sharply jagged mountain range. A primeval forest of spiky ephlox moss marches down the steep rubble slopes of these miniature mountains. On the pebbled skirts of the mountains stands a tiny shrine of rough grey stone.

a miniature desert garden in a colorfully painted clay dish:
You see a desert in miniature. No greenery or moss spoils the perfection of this tiny desert scene. Inside the confines of its container, small stones become sun bleached boulders lying as if scattered by nature. A twisted and broken branch becomes the bleached stump of a huge tree standing alone in the sun blasted sand near a parched pebble strewn stream bed.

a miniature woodland meadow in a smooth grey pot:
Inside the container rests a perfect miniature woodland meadow. A grove of miniature aspen and alder trees overhangs the wildflower flecked verge of a crystal clear woodland pond. A steeply banked stream meanders through the miniature woods and falls with a delicate chuckle over flat mossy stones into the crystal pond.

[Silk Stalkings, Show Room]
A single wrought iron candelabra rests in one corner of the room, causing the series of mannequins strewn about the area to appear as though they were conspiring with one another. Long swaths of dark pewter gray silk mask the true identity of the room's construction, but the occasional breeze from an open window on the westernmost side sends them billowing about, revealing long scratch marks bored into the mahogany wood. You also see a pair of double-curling staircases.

[Silk Stalkings, Upstairs]
The pair of double-curling staircases converges on this large room. Ebon silk netting suspended on blackened iron frames creates a partition to separate a small sleeping quarters from the rest of the room. Thickly piled eggplant purple velvet spans the floor, and faceted crystal scones hang from the ebonwood walls, causing the flickers of light to fracture out in a sparkle of rainbow hues across the wood. A merlot silk settee rests next to a black lacquered writing table.

On the mahogany table you see a lightly toasted roll, a wedge of mild cheddar cheese and a glass of white wine.

You help yourself to a lightly toasted roll.
Bits of sun-dried tomato add a light tang to the warm, lightly toasted bread.
Chewy and strong, and filled with a confident although simple blend of spices. 5 bites

You help yourself to a wedge of mild cheddar cheese.
The cheese crumbles slightly at your touch, releasing its sensuous, full-bodied aromas.
Aged to perfection, the cheese blends the characteristic sharp tang with a voluptuously creamy base.
5 bites

You pour yourself a glass of white wine.
Crisp, and very dry, with a pleasant honeyed aftertaste.
Assessing the nuances proves pleasurable, as you find hints of honey and apple nicely underplayed in the dry wine.

[The Silver Scryer, Show Room]
Decorated similarly to the front room, this area is obviously designed to display items for sale, rather than for comfort. Light streaming in through the large windows glints off bowls on the silver-accented fixtures, which are widely spaced to allow shoppers to inspect them without undue jostling. You also see a silver-trimmed sign, a silver-inlaid table with some stuff on it, a silver-edged rack with some stuff on it and a silver-trimmed case.

A Slice of Life - hidden

Merchant(s): Vagrand

[A Slice of Life, Junction]
Strands of rotting ivy have consumed much of the shop's northern wall, a solid expanse of grime-spattered black stone. The floor is uneven and incised with a pattern of concentric circles. Moonlight from a crack in the ceiling shines on the direct center of the chamber.
Obvious exits: east

[A Slice of Life, Showroom]
Roots dangle from above like snatching, grubby fingers. Their tireless efforts have made an ungentle mockery of the man-made ceiling, splintering it and allowing dark loam to spill through to mar the stone slab floor below. The walls are lined with decaying cases of burled wood, which boast a surprising display of well-tended weaponry.

The floor is hardwood and slightly dusty, covered only in the center by a round, nondescript brown rug.

Spinning Faith - a small golden linden house with a smal fenced backyard (38)

Merchant(s): Wrennyfur

[Spinning Faith, Showroom]
Only rising to mid-wall, the whitewashed paneling that rings the room is fashioned of thin slats. Azure paint decorates the top half of the walls as they reach for the white stucco ceiling, while polished cherry wood flooring supports the various display cases that house the shop's wares. A number of velvet-lined shelves are arranged around a brass-hinged golden linden door that leads to the street, and polished sconces cover the walls at even intervals to provide ample lighting.
Obvious exits: east

Rings are 5000 silvers, scripted and have a show:

Pale violet paint coats the stucco from mid-wall to the cherry wood floor, while whitewashed paneling stretches above in thin streaks to the ceiling. Several display cases are set at the edge of the room in a semi-circle, loitering beneath velvet-lined shelves and polished sconces that cast a warm countenance. Within the embrace of the crescent of cases is a polished cherry wood table topped with a crocheted ivory doily, which protects the tabletop from the silver-cast tray that sits upon it.

Stairs give entrance from above, with azure-painted railings safely guiding the way to the woven rug of cotton covering the cherry wood floor at the base. There is a narrow counter that runs the length of the wall immediately to the left of the stairs, its whitewashed surface set mere inches below a double set of windows that look out on an herb garden. A small cotton-covered table occupies the center of the floor space, while a plump wood-burning stove huddles in a corner beneath a tidy rack of pots and pans.

Sugar and Spice - a bright green-painted house with dull blue shutters (20)

Merchant(s): Aersaslyn

[Sugar and Spice]
Sloppily painted walls in shades of blue and green rise up from a shaggy, butter yellow-carpeted floor, creating for this small room a decor that could have been designed by a child. Brightly colored paper flowers hang from a multi-tiered iron rack situated against the far wall, their narrow green parchment leaves dangling over a round cloth-covered table. On the other side of a yellow flower-painted arch, opposite the table, is a low glass-sided case set beneath a gauzy-curtained, round window. You also see a blue and green-striped door.
Obvious exits: none

Strawberry and chocolate flavors harmonize beautifully, enhanced by the faint tang of alcohol.
Thick, strawberry flavored liquor washes over your tongue as you bite through the brittle chocolate.

On the cloth-covered table you see a hard piece of lemon candy, a lemon-filled chocolate tart, a veined maple leaf chocolate, a piece of caramel-filled chocolate and a dimpled white chocolate moon.

a bright green apple-shaped lollipop:
Like the fruit itself, this lollipop has an apple flavor that is naturally sweet with only the slightest hint of a tart aftertaste.
Sweet and faintly tangy, the taste of apples invades your senses, and the smell is so strong it is as if you were standing at the heart of an orchard.

[Sugar and Spice]
Overhead, the ceiling has been painted a pale azure, and dried paint drips down the white walls as if the ceiling were a summer sky melting onto a white canvas. Thick grass green carpet pads the floor underfoot, and a threadbare, overstuffed couch in the same hue sits directly in the middle of the room. Against the wall to either side of the arch is a set of iron-framed shelves and a tall mirror-backed display. To the left of the couch is a blue and red-painted barrel.

The Tailored Scabbard - a dark wooden structure (9)

Merchant(s): Bartlow

[The Tailored Scabbard, Foyer]
Laying upon the floor is a dark crimson rug that stretches both to the northwest and northeast, as well as under the wooden door. The room is smoke-filled, most likely caused by the iron braziers mounted on the dark wood paneled walls. Resting in the center of the room, a small velvet-covered table sits, with a silver-edged parchment note displayed on top.
Obvious exits: northeast, northwest, out

All items in shop are 25000 silvers, hold one item and change wear location.

~Welcome to The Tailored Scabbard~

The sheaths here are adjustable to be worn in different locations.
They can also be unlocked to be wearable in even more locations...
That is, when I am around to work on them further!

~Bartlow

[The Tailored Scabbard, Wood]
Stopping at the entrance of the room, the dark crimson rug appears to be tattered and torn at the end, as if something ripped it recently. A pair of rusted iron swords are displayed on a haon crest just over a long velvet-covered counter, which is slightly singed. Laying upon the floor is a snuffed candle surrounded by a pool of dried wax, most likely the cause of the singed velvet.
Obvious exits: southwest

On the velvet-covered counter you see an engraved ironwood scabbard, a silver-traced ebonwood scabbard, a smooth black willow scabbard, a polished fel scabbard, a slender monir sheath, a lacquered ash sheath, an etched haon sheath and a gold-bound black oak sheath.

[The Tailored Scabbard, Leather]
The dark crimson rug stops in the center of the room here, just before a large velvet-covered display case. Tendrils of smoke float endlessly around the entrance to the room, carrying the faint scent of aged leather. A large portrait of a man slaying an over-sized mountain lion hangs on the northern wall, its surface covered in dust.
Obvious exits: southeast

In the display case you see a distressed leather scabbard, a fur-trimmed sheepskin scabbard, a smooth dark goat hide scabbard, a sinew-bound rat hide scabbard, a gold-stitched leather sheath, a tasseled rawhide sheath, a silver-banded lion skin sheath and a tooled doeskin sheath.

Take It To The Grave - a two story building (wooden door) (37)

[Take It To The Grave]
Floorboards stick up at odd angles, as if something is pushing them up from underneath. Candles in dusty sconces provide less than ample lighting, and only tiny motes of sunlight stream through the dirt-caked windows. Between the dim lighting, the splintering walls, and the disrepair to the room in general, the building is almost reminiscent of a cavern, and just over a granite-topped counter, the ceiling looks ready to fall in on itself. A creaky wooden door fills up the center of one wall.
Obvious exits: north

Dark fel flooring shows signs of rot, though only in early stages. The floorboards stick up in haphazard patterns, though it does seem like shapes almost bulge up from underneath them. Scattered along the floor, bones of all shapes and sizes are pushed into small heaps.

Items on and under floorboards are 2500 silvers, not worn and serve purpose.

On the fel floorboards you see a long cracked bone, a pure white circle-shaped bone, a short mud-encrusted bone, a red-spotted split bone, a small charred skull and a blue-tinted troll skull.

Under the fel floorboards you see a small cracked finger bone, a large ivory half-skull and a thick slightly curved bone.

Dark fel flies up from the ceiling, sputtering out as the wall slants out at various points, where the dusty wood has splintered in an almost explosive fashion. Hooks along the wall display a variety of lanterns, though none are lit at present.

Lanterns are 10000 silers, not worn and have purpose.

On the series of hooks you see a bone-handled copper lantern, a dark crimson glaes-paned lantern, a polished silver lantern, a greasy forest green lantern and an antique rusted gold lantern.

On the granite-topped counter you see a torn pair of faded leather gloves, a curved bone-adorned dagger, a pair of thick canvas gloves, a wood-handled executioner's axe, a pair of mud-stained pants, a rust-edged beaked axe and a pair of mud-splattered boots.

A long iron counter stretches from one end of the room to the other, its surface marred with dents and the marks of multiple rough scourings. Hanging from one stone wall is a series of tools. In one corner of the room, a fireplace is placed so that even the tiniest ember of flame will shed both light and color into the otherwise colorless area, while another corner boasts stacks of granite, marble, wood, and fieldstone. Leading to a dirt-laden yard, a tall doorway swings outward. You also see a pile of sticks.
Obvious exits: south

Hooked over pegs in the wall, a series of tools hang in neat rows. The blades are polished, though the handles show wear and high volume usage. Just to the right of the tools, several pieces of cloth droop from a single nail.

On the set of pegs you see a short-handled mortuary sword, a thick-handled vaalorn bludgeon, a faintly etched grey hook-knife, a slightly bent sheering sword, a large rusted sledgehammer, a rowan-handled glaes beheading sword, a long-handled red skull-crusher, an enruned kidney dagger, a white leather-grip cleaver and a carmine-edged butcher knife.

[Take It To The Grave, Yard]
Piles upon piles of dirt crowd this unkempt section of ground, where each tiny mountain differs in color, texture, and make-up. Lined up along the wall of the building, between a tall doorway and a set of wooden stairs, is a rack full of odds and ends. Dried out, though obviously tended to, shrubs line the rickety wooden fence. You also see a set of wooden stairs.

The Tannery - a low stone building with a rough wooden door (33)

[The Tannery, Front Room]
A pervasive, acrid odor hangs like a palpable shroud over the four-square room. Several vats line one wall, each large enough to serve as a swimming hole for gnomes, containing blackish green fluid with an unhealthy-looking iridescent sheen. Unfinished scale armors of various styles hang alongside some completed examples on an armor rack, while some others are piled neatly on a battered table. You also see a piece of mounted leather serving as a sign and a rough wooden door.

[The Tannery, Back Room]
This narrow ell extends back from the main room, giving workers some respite from the stench of the tanning vats there. A few small windows near the rafters let in a dank breeze, but their surfaces are too grimy to add to the dim illumination. A workbench runs along one side nearly the length of the room, its top littered with scraps of leather, banding, and scales. Finished work hangs in an ironwood wardrobe and a shallow closet along the other wall. You also see a piece of mounted leather serving as a sign.

Til Death - a windowless shake and shingle store with a distinct tilt to one side (20)

['Til Death, Bliss]
Continuing in its dark theme, the shop narrows into a curved, fabric-swathed bottleneck that is lit by the flicker of candles. Drapes of ebon nearly conceal the arch leading back to the entrance. Silvery vines sprout over the soft, black walls, apparently anchoring the satin against them, while simultaneously offering a unique display for wares.
Obvious exits: east, out

Items on vines are 35000 silvers and have the following show: The shadowy shape of a humanoid figure appears to be etched on the[noun].

On the silver vines you see a delicate gold charm bracelet, a moon-intaglio pure ivory wristcuff, a lacy floral silverwork wristlet, a snow white milky glass bangle and a curved blued steel bracer.

['Til Death, Bound]
Sickly red and violet lights compete for dominance, the conflicting hues pouring over the satin-covered walls from indeterminable sources. Posed as though in the throes of agony, feminine wire mannequins line the room, their skeletal fingers stretched toward the ceiling or over their expressionless, metal faces. Strung from the ceiling on delicate black threads, finery dangles overhead, twinkling in the disturbing illumination.

A Tile-Roofed Shop - a small wooden gate (31)

[A Tile-Roofed Shop]
Built of sand-colored brick, this small shop seems to be losing its battle against the encroaching vines. Tendrils of green creep inexorably upward, clawing their way toward the red, fired-clay roof tiles that seem mostly intact despite long years of exposure to the elements. A glassless four-pane window hangs dejectedly beside the arched entry. You also see a small wooden gate.
Obvious paths: none

[Tile-Roofed Shop, Front Room]
Tall brass candle stands, thick with verdigris, stand in the four corners of this stark, unadorned room. Merchandise sits forlornly amidst layers of dust on the various displays, though the items themselves are oddly clean and well preserved. The same holds true for wares that reside on a short haon cabinet and a walnut cloak stand.
Obvious exits: east, out

On the glass display you see a mammoth tusk scroll tube, a sturdy vruul skin baldric, a rugged suede weapon harness, an opaline spidersilk wand harness and a seagrass equipment harness.

Trick of the Eye - a stout low-gabled house (29)

[Trick of the Eye]
The appearance of this home suggests that its owner is unconcerned with creature comforts and more concerned with practical uses of space. From the low beams supporting the roof, colorful ribbon braids dangle to the floor at the room's edge, while mannequins suspended from chains are fixed to the floorboards on pedestals that allow them to turn. The plush couch seats several mannequin busts, and what once likely served as an eating table displays the disembodied lower quarters, from waist to legs.
Obvious exits: east, out

On the ribbon braids you see a white and ebon fur mantle, a long-nosed striped mask, a dyed lizard skin half-cape, a wildly feathered mask, a lemony velvet feathered capelet and a bright yellow felt mask.

[Trick of the Eye]
As a home and as a shop, this room is multi-purposed. Against one wall, clustered around an old cast iron stove, vats of dye in jewel-toned hues sit idle. A pungent smell fills the air here, something that tweaks the nose like vinegar. From the middle of the room, the furniture has been pushed back against the rear wall, and baskets occupy the seats and table tops. Near the side wall, opposite the stove, a small straw bed covered with a thin quilt is crowded with boxes and tins.

Twiggery Wiggery - a crumbling stone building (57)

[Twiggery Wiggery, Entry]
It appears that no one has cleaned or even attempted to organize this cramped room in living memory.

[Twiggery Wiggery, Workshop]
Even smaller than the front room, this ramshackle space appears to have been tacked on to the main building as an ell. The ceiling sags precariously and has entirely collapsed in a far corner, allowing a dank breeze to stir the omnipresent dust and scraps of hair that litter the central workbench. The walls are covered with hundreds of hooks and hangers, each bearing hanks of variously hued hair or wigs in different stages of completion.
Obvious exits: north

On the workbench you see a cylindrical wooden canister.

Underground Laboratory - an underground hovel (11)

[Underground Laboratory]
Draped red silk falls from the low ceiling to cover the walls and graze the top of the rug-covered floor. Tiny tealight candles burn brightly along the baseboards, teasing a bony black cat that swats at their dancing flames. Pungent vanilla incense burns on a far table, combining with the sulfur scent from the rest of the shop to create a unique, if not noxious, odor.

Feathery patterns of green and black are painted across the dark blue silk that covers the walls.

Wood You - a weathered wooden cottage (59)

[Wood You, Parlor]
Smooth pale wooden planks form the walls of this smallish room, their uniform hue creating a stark contrast with the vividly-colored paintings which adorn them. The floor, covered for the most part with a ratty bamboo mat, appears uneven throughout, giving the impression of long-standing neglect. You also see a pitted oak chest, a side door leading to the shed and a scratched oak table with some stuff on it.

[Wood You, Shed]
A square room with not much in the way of illumination, the shed holds the unmistakable smells of mold and rotting wood. Grey shadows are slightly diffused by a sliver of mottled light that filters in through a tiny window that is mostly covered with dust. In its umbral midst, it is difficult to discern the oak racks and shelves that clutter the walls. You also see a whitewashed door.

Yare's Emporium - a dilapidated cottage (2)

[Yares' Emporium]
A heavily scarred bench dominates most of the room, its massive legs providing an assuredly steady work surface. Several broken shafts crafted from a variety of hardwoods lay on one side of room, obviously rejected by the artisan and now more suited for kindling than anything else. You also see a tarnished bronze stand with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: southwest

On the bronze stand you see a glaes flamberge, a sigil-etched dark imflass javelin, a weathered faenor pilum, a mesille-handled pill, a vultite military pick and a broad-bladed voulge.

[Yares' Emporium]
Bits of metal litter the compacted earth floor, most of them now incrusted into it after a multitude of feet have walked over them. Still, they glint and beckon from their mottled soil canvas like miniature ore deposits now forgotten. You also see a tall bronze rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: southeast

On the bronze rack you see a vaalorn pitchfork, a sharply honed greatsword, an opaque glaes mattock, a gleaming mithglin boar spear and a tapered blade naginata.

Zephyr - a pale mistwood and stone structure 31)

[Zephyr, Entry]
The opening room is little more than a blank stone and wood canvas. A triad of shadowed hallways split off from the bare mistwood walls, each in a distinct direction.

Obvious exits: north, east, west

In the Common language, it reads:

Ode to the land Here you will see Finer than all is the air that we breathe A zephyr A shiver A whisper A quiver Drawn from the land All had to be Captured within, my curiosities

Most of the color present in the room comes directly from the available wares.
