The Cobbler's Shop

Gornissa

How Gornissa can be so elegantly dressed as she works is beyond normal comprehension.  Without a hair out of place, without a spot on her neat muslin gown, she manages to ply her trade.  Her hair is dark and her skin smooth, giving her the appearance of a much younger woman than she probably is, since she has owned this shop for years.

Carefully applying a few drops of oil to a piece of finely cut leather, Gornissa works it in with a soft cloth, smiling with pride at her work.

Gornissa twitches the hem of her skirt out of her way impatiently, showing off the elegant kid boots she is wearing.

Soft humming can be heard as Gornissa moves about the shop, straightening her displays and smiling at customers.

Gornissa sighs rapturously as she smooths her hand over a soft length of suede.
