A combination of pale blues and dark blues spill down from the silver tent's ceiling, the lengths of fabric anything but asymmetrical in their placement and patterning. Accenting the fabric and lighting the largely open tent are a plethora of lanterns lit with brightly burning flames, and the smoke rising out of them creates a dull haze that hangs in the air. Tall unlit candles border walkways that lead farther into the tent. Just beyond the entrance, a small plaque sits atop a black wood table.

Dominating the space is a large, especially tall painting of an elf, his features bearing hints of Ardenai ancestry, with long, flowing hair formed from silvery eels. As if mimicking the props in the painting, the black-cushioned chairs situated around the space here are similarly upholstered and appear to be exact replicas of the one the elf sits upon. Suspended in the center of the area from above by a pale blue swathe of fabric is a gold-framed mirror.

Alternating dark blue and pale blue panels of fabric cascade down from the tent's ceiling to partition this area off from the main entry. Opposite a plain black bench are several tall metal devices, each built with a door decorated in poor quality etchings, as if a child drew them, of some figures being stretched apart into unnatural lengths and other figures being squashed down so that their chests sit just above their feet.

The Betterment Boutique, W of NE Room

[The Betterment Boutique - 27484]
Dominating the space is a large, especially tall painting of an elf, his features bearing hints of Ardenai ancestry, with long, flowing hair formed from silvery eels. As if mimicking the props in the painting, the black-cushioned chairs situated around the space here are similarly upholstered and appear to be exact replicas of the one the elf sits upon. Suspended in the center of the area from above by a pale blue swathe of fabric is a gold-framed mirror.

Forming a ring around the area, with several hanging down at odd angles in between the ones that are standing upright on their own, multiple gold-framed mirrors add the illusion of space to the small space. Several hard-backed steel chairs stand next to small tables topped with the accoutrements of styling hair, though some sets of scissors are twisted in ways that render them virtually useless.

Alternating dark blue and pale blue panels of fabric cascade down from the tent's ceiling to partition this area off from the main entry. Opposite a plain black bench are several tall metal devices, each built with a door decorated in poor quality etchings, as if a child drew them, of some figures being stretched apart into unnatural lengths and other figures being squashed down so that their chests sit just above their feet. A gold-framed mirror is propped up adjacent the row of devices.

Dozens upon dozens of chandeliers of multitudinous sizes and designs drip down from the ceiling at varying lengths, with several hanging so low that they brush the ground. The majority of the chandeliers are fully aflame with light, save for the unlit handful suspended over the dead center of the area. Interspersed between several of the larger, more elaborate pieces are several hard-backed steel chairs, with thin, jaggedly shaped mirrors and tiny steel grates imbedded into the floor around them.

a multi-peaked silver tent, [Map Room 43], Lich #26427, go tent (Leviathans' Rest)

The Betterment Boutique, Entry

[The Betterment Boutique, Entry] RNUM: 27480
A combination of pale blues and dark blues spill down from the silver tent's ceiling, the lengths of fabric anything but asymmetrical in their placement and patterning. Accenting the fabric and lighting the largely open tent are a plethora of lanterns lit with brightly burning flames, and the smoke rising out of them creates a dull haze that hangs in the air. Tall unlit candles border walkways that lead farther into the tent. Just beyond the entrance, a small plaque sits atop a black wood table.
Obvious exits: northeast, west, northwest, out
Welcome!  Have a cookie, drink some juice.  Then sit back, relax, and let us do the work of changing you into the best possible version of yourself.

On the black wood table you see a small plaque, a delicate plate of cookies and a pitcher of smastan berry juice.

Under the black wood table you see a heap of rag doll heads.

The doll heads are each ragged at the neck, as if ripped off rather than cleanly cut from their previous pairing. Streaking each of the severed doll's faces are barely there stains that seem strangely like oily tears that were shed and then dried up.

Gold-framed mirrors line the edges of the area, reflecting and refracting light from multiple curving, eel-shaped lanterns that hang down from above. Smoke drifting up from the lanterns creates a haze that hangs in the air. Hanging down from the ceiling, a twist of dark blue fabric is paired to each of several hard-backed steel chairs. You also see a sign.

Dominating the space is a large, especially tall painting of an elf, his features bearing hints of Ardenai ancestry, with long, flowing hair formed from silvery eels. As if mimicking the props in the painting, the black-cushioned chairs situated around the space here are similarly upholstered and appear to be exact replicas of the one the elf sits upon. Suspended in the center of the area from above by a pale blue swathe of fabric is a gold-framed mirror. You also see a sign.

Forming a ring around the area, with several hanging down at odd angles in between the ones that are standing upright on their own, multiple gold-framed mirrors add the illusion of space to the small space. Several hard-backed steel chairs stand next to small tables topped with the accoutrements of styling hair, though some sets of scissors are twisted in ways that render them virtually useless.

Alternating dark blue and pale blue panels of fabric cascade down from the tent's ceiling to partition this area off from the main entry. Opposite a plain black bench are several tall metal devices, each built with a door decorated in poor quality etchings, as if a child drew them, of some figures being stretched apart into unnatural lengths and other figures being squashed down so that their chests sit just above their feet. A gold-framed mirror is propped up adjacent the row of devices. You also see a sign.
