The Ivory Mask

[The Ivory Mask]	Room: 9132310
Creamy white walls are inset along the borders with colorful gem shards, creating a clean, but soft, atmosphere. Framed by lace curtains, several windows allow sunlight to pour in and glint off of several of the many decorative masks that hang from the ceiling. Across from an armoire, a crystal case is crowded with items on display, and a gold-painted arch leads further into the wagon.
Obvious exits: out

In the crystal case you see: a bee-printed ivory placard, a mirror-inlaid faenor locket, a jet-pipped bone dice locket, a skull and crossbones locket, a heart-shaped dichroic glass locket, a gold-veined oval granite locket, a villswood blossom locket, a white gold anchor locket, a domed patinaed copper locket, a brushed steel bloomery-etched locket, a miriam stone duckling locket, an onyx-bound ivory tome locket, and a feystone dragonfly locket.

a bee-printed ivory placard

In the Common language, it reads:
Each locket in the case will capture an image of whomever first opens it.  Not every locket is right for every person.  Some hints as to their personalities:

The mirror-inlaid locket suits a vain person.
The dice locket features a gambler portrait.
The skull and crossbones locket is for those of an evil bent.
The dichroic glass locket is for those of a romantic nature.
The oval granite locket is for those who have a streak of daredevil in them.
The anchor locket features a confident captain of a ship.
The patinaed copper locket is for someone who is flirty.
The duckling locket is for those of a meditative nature and features an Iyo village.
The ivory tome locket is for bookish types.
The bloomery-etched locket is for those of a stormy nature.
The dragonfly locket features a giggly person.

These lockets are complicated in their craftsmanship.

Several divans and couches sit against the walls, surrounding a gilt-edged mistwood table. A large portrait hangs on the far wall in between two smaller pieces of artwork.
Obvious exits: out
