Garden Sanctuary, Conservatory. |

A set of curving stairs trails off at a statuesque pavilion with a peaked crown covered in slate shingling. Three dewy glass walls seclude a silk-cushioned trestle seat, while still allowing a sweeping view of the profuse irises and fruit trees. Sunken into the ground, a silvery stone water basin faintly glimmers under shifting beams of sunlight. |
|||
Garden Sanctuary, Altar. |
|||
Neutral sand-hued stones pave the earthy ground and are punctuated by a mix of smaller blue-grey and ivory pebbles. A series of decorative stone lanterns line a wide, silk-spread aisle, leading to a lush koi pond in front of an ornate mistwood altar. Minimal flowerage exists within the verdure flourishing around the area, dotted only by sprays of woody indigo blossoms and nearly transparent white buds. |

Latest revision as of 09:32, 24 January 2023
In the wandering eye market (north) you will find Kraken’s Fall town hall, The Inking Den. Access is through the enormous iron-bound door built into the craggy face of the cliff. All the city’s official business occurs here.
The Inking Den
[Wandering Eye Market, North] | RNUM: 28871 |
Sunlight peeks over the lip, though it never truly shows its face this close to the sheer cliff wall that stretches towards the sky. Purple clover blossoms grow between the dark cobblestones as tangled flaeshorn vines strive for the peak. Smaller stalls, dark and secretive, have popped up in the shadow of the cliff, while an enormous iron-bound door is built directly into its craggy face. A small oak and stucco shop rests on the far southern edge of the square. You also see an enormous iron-bound door.

Large oak beams stretch across the stone ceiling, the roughened lengths riddled with nails that hold aloft a variety of charms, talismans, and globes, while the corresponding pillars that provide their support are draped with fishing nets and strange carvings. A long wooden plank lays across the top of two oak barrels to create a rustic countertop, which separates a ship name registrar from the public. Open brass portholes ring the office, their windows thrown wide to display painted scenes.

Potted plants of large and small ferns decorate three-quarters of the hall, their broad leaves catching the pulsating illumination of a nearby shimmering doorway that seems out of place in the granite office. Copper lanterns discharge yellowing light over the counter, where Anne the Wedding Planner, diligently works through a stack of papers while keeping her eye on the comings and goings through a windowed dark green door that leads to the hallway outside.

Preserved flower samples housed in tiny glass frames are arranged upon either side of a tall bookshelf, their buff faces reflecting the various titles of the tomes held on each shelf. A pristine white pedestal also occupies the space, though it has been carefully moved out of the path of foot traffic.
Obvious paths: out |
The bookshelf holds a number of leaflets, pamphlets and journals.

Wedding Area Descriptions: Location 1
Garden Sanctuary, Retreat.
Naturally flowing water spills down and around an extensive tumbling of sandstone rocks. A single mimosa tree reaches an impressive height, bending its heavily laden boughs over a delicate mistwood bridge. Elegantly arching over the spring, the bridge has a soft blonde color that stands out distinctly against a background of tall, slender grasses.

Elegantly arching over the spring, the bridge has a soft blonde color that stands out distinctly against a background of tall, slender grasses.
Garden Sanctuary, Reception.
Precisely pruned trees of varying heights give a secluded feeling to the otherwise open expanse of short, pale emerald grass. A simplistic stairway forms a fanning crescent down the side of a modest hill, adjacent to a sculptural stonework buffet and a bronze patina pedestal. Warm, twinkling lights float amongst the limbs of back-set red maples that provide a fiery accent to the understated landscape.
Garden Sanctuary, Conservatory.
A set of curving stairs trails off at a statuesque pavilion with a peaked crown covered in slate shingling. Three dewy glass walls seclude a silk-cushioned trestle seat, while still allowing a sweeping view of the profuse irises and fruit trees. Sunken into the ground, a silvery stone water basin faintly glimmers under shifting beams of sunlight.
Garden Sanctuary, Altar.
Neutral sand-hued stones pave the earthy ground and are punctuated by a mix of smaller blue-grey and ivory pebbles. A series of decorative stone lanterns line a wide, silk-spread aisle, leading to a lush koi pond in front of an ornate mistwood altar. Minimal flowerage exists within the verdure flourishing around the area, dotted only by sprays of woody indigo blossoms and nearly transparent white buds.
Once finished, you return the rose-colored pamphlet to its proper place on the bookshelf.

Nodding, her expression turning serious, Osalle says, "Registering your items is very important. You must do it if your item is important to you. Should you accidentally lose your item, this will help officials to track it down for you. Mind you, if you lose it to the foul play of bandits or creatures, you'll want to speak to the Adventurer's Guild, but that is another topic for another time. To properly register your item, you need only hold it in your hand and REGISTER it. You can always come back to me when you have it in hand and ask me for REGISTER INFO (and your item). I'd be happy to share any information with you."
<ask clerk about register info>
Absently gesturing into the air, Osalle says, "Oh, yes, you can register almost any item that you desire. Especially if it is one that you will miss. You only need to register it one time, unless you change it in some fashion - like say, enchanting or ensorcelling, and the record will stay with us. To be honest, you don't even need to come to see me Though I do like the visits. You only need to be within the town to REGISTER."
With an item in your hand, <register info chakram>

The young clerk can assist you in moving your locker. Read the sign to see the moving rates. Ask the clerk about shipping to learn more.
<ask clerk about ship>
The young clerk smiles sunnily at you, "Moving, are we? How nice!" he says. The young clerk consults some files, running a delicate finger down each page as he reads.
The young clerk says to you, "Ah, here we are...I see you're a Four Winds member, Wyrmheart. Would you like us to ship your locker for you?"
The young clerk smiles at you, waiting patiently for your response.
Lockers
Traveling northwest from the Inking Den vestibule will bring you to the public lockers. Travelling northeast from the vestibule will bring you to your house annex and locker.
[Inking Den, Vestibule -] | RNUM: 28957 |
Glass-fronted lanterns dangle from wrought iron rings anchored to the ceiling to provide uniform lighting throughout the vestibule. Several hallways branch outward from this point, each decorated with either navy blue or cerulean rugs that help to cut down on the echoing of voices and footsteps off of the stone walls. An etched bronze sign is tacked to the lower half of the northern wall, while above it the towering image of a large black kraken being skewered by a bowsprit is painted in brilliant detail.
Obvious exits: northeast, east, west, northwest, out |
