The Gouged Heart, Entrance

[The Gouged Heart, Entrance]	Room: 8084101
Small flecks of sawdust float in the air, catching in the ambient light of the smithy. Cobbled walls, lined with small iron bins full of forging glyphs, form a domed lid atop the cramped space. Next to an umber velvet curtain, a scarred wooden table hold a small set of woodworking tools, with a small set of discarded wooden blocks piled to one side.
Obvious paths: out

On the wooden table you see: a gold parchment, a silvery parchment, a double-bevel imflass chisel, a sturdy steel chisel with a witchwood handle, a hoarbeam-gripped iron gouge with a v-shaped tip, an etched faenor gouge, and a large haon sign.

a large haon sign
In the Common language, it reads:
Fellow blacksmiths, you will find in the bins along the wall a selection of high-quality glyphs to use in your practice.  Additionally, I humbly offer a new device of my own invention!  My gouges and chisels will allow you to utilize captured bugs and aquatic life as decoration for your freshly made weapons.

The Gouged Heart, Workroom

[The Gouged Heart, Workroom]	Room: 8084102
An umber velvet curtain opens into a small workroom; a set of workbenches pushed to one side for ease of use. A latticework chair sits before a small desk, its thin legs marking lines in the wooden shavings that cover the floor. Tucked beside the desk, an assortment of papers has haphazardly stuffed into a haon box.
