a black oak and limestone dwelling, [Map Room 22], Room# 8214522, Lich# L26836, go limestone dwelling

At The Ready

[At The Ready - 8212686]
Simply assembled planks of black oak and limestone compose the outer structure for the fairly spacious dwelling. Dusty iron lanterns hang from the four cobweb-strewn corners of the squared space, emanating with a dreary, wavering glow that spreads over a high-backed aged teak chest and a rough-hewn white cedar rack. Arranged at the back, a splintered mistwood case is bookended by a heap of discarded whittling tools and haphazard curls of lumber scraps. You also see a dark stained oak table.
Obvious exits: out

In the aged teak chest you see: a gold-wrapped ivory vaalin rod, a spade-tipped crimson cedar cane, a sharp peacock blue elm truncheon, and an oversized inky black iron stake.
