a star-spangled dark blue pavilion, [Map Room 1], Room# 8214505, Lich# L26847, go dark pavilion

Paranormal Pages

[Paranormal Pages - 8212620]
Floating like clouds against an inky black sky, frosted orbs of magical light hover against the dark canvas of the pavilion and provide a soft glow that illuminates the tidy shop's wares. Tables covered in pristine white cloths stretch across angled walls, while geometric-patterned carpets cover the ground with their warm colors and hypnotic designs. Curtain ties hold the flaps of the pavilion open, providing a flow of air and a view of the streets of Bloodriven.
Obvious exits: none

On the long table you see: a scrap of ensigiled parchment, a scrap of enruned parchment, a pristine scrap of parchment, a pristine glossy white tome, a cracked and weathered tome, a thick-spined cobalt blue tome, a scarlet brushed suede tome, a gold-sigiled brown leather tome, and a silver-spined sanguine suede songbook.
