The Resonant Hull

The Resonant Hull is a shop in the Flotilla that sells instruments.

The Resonant Hull, Deck

[The Resonant Hull, Deck]

Room: 7134272

Weathered cypress and aged cedar form this double-masted vessel, its hull and railings lacquered in deep vermilion. Two angular fin-shaped sails rise from the deck like the wings of a folding screen, while the vessel's heart houses a small-roofed chamber, its sliding paper-paneled screens and graceful hipped roof framed by natural wood planking. Bare plank decking runs stem to stern between carved rail posts, where a narrow boarding ramp extends like an outstretched hand.

The Resonant Hull, Chamber

Directions: into the chamber

[The Resonant Hull, Chamber]	Room: 7134273
Sliding paper-paneled screens line three faces of the chamber, their pale latticed surfaces diffusing light evenly across the interior. The rear wall stands in contrast, solid cypress planking running floor-to-ceiling in continuous grain, supporting the racks and stands arranged before it and along the side walls, while two woven mats sit toward the center, flanking a low cypress table. Providing accenting hues, vermilion trim follows the base of each wall and the screen rails above.
Obvious exits: out
