Shield Thyself

[Shield Thyself - 28333]
Built between two buildings, the narrow shop has a roof of overlapping canopies that are nailed into a series of boarded up windows on either side. Cobblestones gleam in the ambient light where the smooth stones lining the ground have been scrubbed to a near luminous quality. Despite the odd construction, the shop is tidy and utilizes old ale casks to create a sturdy table along the western wall.
Obvious exits: north, out
