The Sable Quietus, Entry

[The Sable Quietus, Entry - 28325]
Flickering candlelight creates more shadow than illumination in the cramped cobblestone room, which is deprived of windows and floored with packed dirt. Thick wrought iron pegs line the eastern wall, each laden with a different mask, while wicker baskets are arranged upon the floor opposite an oak and copper door. A coal-filled blackened brazier emits a warm, inviting orange light, though it does little to heat anything further than a handspan from its home on the eastern side of the room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Sable Quietus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Welcome to the Sable Quietus, the original home of Plague Masks. You will find a display of them on the pegs. In order to activate their special abilities, you'll need a cartridge. These can be found in the basket. An unlimited number of unlocking certificates are available there as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In order to recharge your cartridge, you will need to use a potion. Anyone trained in alchemy can create one of these potions for you. Poison cartridges use the following: a crystalline flask containing a dimly glowing sky-blue potion Disease cartridges use the following: a crystalline flask containing a dimly glowing sea-green potion Each cartridge will only ever hold three charges. Each potion can be poured on a cartridge to restore one dose.

In the wicker baskets you see: a waxed ebon parchment, a waxed black vellum, a bright sea-green cartridge and a bright sky-blue cartridge.

The Sable Quietus, Storage

[The Sable Quietus, Storage -]
Shielded lanterns flicker with faint candlelight from their recessed positions within the four corners of the small storage room. Heavy with dirt and discarded dried herbs, the uneven floor transitions from packed dirt near an oak and copper door to roughly hewn planks that support a series of storage shelves. A thick curtain along the southeastern wall is slightly drawn back from an empty door casing.
Obvious exits: none

On the series of storage shelves you see: a tightly knit ivory angora cowl, a thick blackworked cowl of multitonal slate frieze, a claw-pinned multilayered burnet cowl, a simple pale brown cameline cowl, a heavy vermillion falding cowl with irregular white stripes, a tonal viridian felt cowl, a scarlet-on-black brushed flannel cowl, a pale grey kersey cowl painted with a wispy cloud pattern and a voluminous burgundy pashmina cowl.

Dimly lit by tallows placed in wrought iron sconces, the small passage has rough wooden walls and a packed dirt floor. Rickety wooden stairs ascend to the floor above along the western edge, while white-washed oak planks form a descending staircase that disappears below. A faded curtain outlined in light is the only other means of exiting the space.

[The Sable Quietus, Landing -]
Rough oak floorboards form a small, squarish landing that encircles a rickety set of wooden stairs that descends to the level below. Whitewashed walls, newly painted and clean, lend a sterile and austere air to the small space that is only enhanced by the scent of medicinals in the air. Wrought iron hooks flank a closed white door, their curved edges supporting various overcoats and smocks.

Heavy and damp, the air is rife with the scent of packed dirt, herbs, and smoke. Spidery white tendrils, the roots of some unseen plant, dangle from the ceiling between the thick oak beams. Footsteps dully echo from above as patrons and denizens move through the passage above, the tremors setting the wrought iron basket of coals that hangs in the center of the room to swaying.
