Isle Dyes, Foyer

[Isle Dyes, Foyer] Room: 34252
Reddish tiling spreads across the floor in pleasant contrast to the white stucco walls. A trio of curving arches to the west open up into the showroom, while a simple arch to the north leads out into an open-air courtyard. Just adjacent, a large bamboo desk has been commandeered by a massive collection of papers and half-full dye bottles. You also see a large placard, a collection of bamboo chairs covered in red cushions, a small wooden door labeled, "Public Workroom" and an obtrusive sign.
Obvious exits: out

Directions: through the trio of arches from the Foyer

[Isle Dyes, Showroom] Room: 34251
Dark bamboo tables and chairs sit on the reddish tile flooring that rises up into stucco walls of white. Dangling from hooks set in the stucco, wrought iron lanterns supplement the natural light streaming through several windows to amply illume the showcase of dyes. Tiny bottles sit on shelves along the walls, and swatches of fabric lay across the tables. Several garments, expertly dyed in intricately colored patterns, dress up the walls above the shelves. You also see a trio of curved arches and some small etched placards.

[Isle Dyes, Courtyard] Room: 34254
Walled with heavy white canvas that plummets down in straight lines from the supporting poles, the dyeing area is large, wide, and airy. The roof overhead is also made of canvas, though it is raised several feet higher than the walls on separate poles to allow sunlight to filter in. Billowing in the passing breeze, light drapes, of a sheer white variety that is a lovely contraposition to the blue tile flooring, serve as dividers between the courtyard and the individual dyeing stalls. You also see a set of potted plants, some tiled steps leading through an archway, a wide cushioned bench and a tall bamboo pole bearing a lantern.

Visible through a large window set in the stucco structure to the south, the stall's contents consist only of rows and rows of buckets. The buckets show off dyes that range from the lighter shades of orange to the darker shades of red. Obviously too full, their contents have smashed together, causing some vials to shatter and send dye dripping down in haphazard patterns on the blue tile flooring. You also see a wide window box teeming with red and orange tulips, a row of tidy buckets with some stuff on it, a row of wooden buckets with some stuff on it and a row of dye-stained buckets with some stuff on it.

Set in the sturdy structure to the south, a large window looks out from the back of the shop into the stall, a large sunflower-filled window box just below its lower panes. Bright yellow sunflowers with sienna middles create a striking contrast between the two shades, further highlighting the yellow and brown hues of dyes filling the rows upon rows of buckets lined up against the western and northern white canvas walls.

[Isle Dyes, Courtyard] Room: 34255
High overhead, a white canvas ceiling is supported by thick steel poles adjacent to shorter poles that hold up the lower canvas walls divided into side-by-side dyeing stalls. Several feet of open space remain between the ceiling and the top of the walls, allowing both light and air to suffuse the area. Sheer white drapes separate each stall from the main of the courtyard. Nestled in the center of the blue tiled courtyard, a small fountain burbles quietly. You also see a tall bamboo pole bearing a lantern, a stone plaque, a disgruntled clerk and a curved bench.

Buckets float in the air several feet above the blue ceramic tiling, their weights supported by twisted ropes attached to the canvas ceiling.

Directions: north from northern Courtyard room

[Isle Dyes, Beyond Shades] Room: 34262
Stark and lacking in decor, the canvas walls of the immense stall are a pristine, clean white, and the area immediately opens out into the courtyard. In the center of the stall, a fragrant, lithe faewood tree rises up out of the blue ceramic tile flooring.
