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.

Obvious paths: east, south, west

Main Room

[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

The western corridor leads to the Courtroom, Office of Petitions, Office of Curator, Office of Realtor, Office of Transportation, and the Office of the Cooperative Houses of Elanthia.

The northwestern and northeastern corridors lead to public and house lockers.

The eastern corridor leads to the Office of Employment, Office of the Debt Collector, Office of the Registrar, Office of Genealogy, Office of the Cartwright, and the Office of Citizenship

The Courtroom

The courtroom is found at the end of the west, Inking Den hallway. This is where all legal proceeding take place.

[Inking Den, Hallway] RNUM: 29469
Navy blue rugs bordered with braided gold rope and bright white anchors cushion the long hallway as it stretches to the east and west. Wrought iron rings dangle from the ceiling and hold aloft glass-fronted lanterns that shed bright yellow light and dispel all surrounding shadows. Fitted into the terminus of the expanse, a pair of maple double doors sits beneath an etched bronze sign that reads, "Courtroom."

Obvious exits: east

Entering through the pair of maple double doors leads to the courtroom.

[Inking Den, Courtroom] RNUM: 28970
Light from a myriad of frosted wall sconces reflects off of the stucco walls of the courtroom, the steady glow creating a warm and brightly lit space. Navy blue rugs rest against the eastern and western walls, pews stretched out upon their faces, while leaving a central aisle of exposed stone. An enormous copper kraken sculpture dominates the northern wall, looming over several chairs that surround a copper-edged ironwood podium.
