Wrong Turn Tavern Entry
| [Wrong Turn Tavern] | RNUM: 26733 |
| Built into the rock face, the derelict tavern is relatively bare, with only a handful of slipshod tables and chairs tucked under funnel-shaped glass lamps hanging from the craggy ceiling. Cluttered on one side with six tall stools, a rough-edged oak bar is covered in a milky film, and the other side is entirely bereft of clean glassware and -- perhaps the reason for the general lack of patrons -- liquor. Middling circular holes that serve as windows are cut into the rock and offer a view of the seascape to the east. | |

SEARCH / GO TRAPDOOR: Hideaway Cavern
| [Hideaway Cavern] | |
| Rocky walls consisting of dark shale in some areas and limestone in others spread all around in this cozy space. A diminutive worktable, its surface covered in dust and ashes, holds a handful of blades sans hilts, some stained with sanguine and all wrought with cracks through their metal makeup. Clearly ready for display and sale, a separate collection of blades, each finely crafted into a dagger and fully intact, dangles from a braided black rope that splays across the length of the area. | |
| Obvious exits: east | |
We ask that you refrain from taking anything from the worktable. Unless you want us to run out of merchandise.
We suggest that you do not think about how the dead things on the bench are used in the making of said merchandise.

All weapons in this room are Ritual Daggers
RITUAL DAGGER ITEM - ANALYZE INFO ---------
This is a Ritual Dagger item. Really, this just means that it has verb traps geared toward performing rituals.
The item is dual-tiered: there are verb tiers, and then there are additional special ability add-ons. Nearly all verb traps allow for targets (use VERB my kaiken WITH/AT (target)), and there are other factors that will introduce some variety. Currently there are 2 verb tiers and 4 special ability add-ons (permanent scarring, commune, intercession, and sacrificing). Generally, unlocking from Tier 1 to 2 will be offered on occasion as a specialized service; however, the add-ons will be extremely rare and should be considered a pie-in-the-sky type of service.
The Tier 1 verbs on this kaiken are: POUR - allows you to coat the dagger in certain specific substances from the food system and some of the old "ritual potion" items; or clean it. PULL - to draw ritual circles. POINT - traces a pattern over the skin. WAVE - to draw patterns that "hang" in the air.
The daggers come in 3 different flavors: default, Arkati, and custom. This kaiken is set up as default, and it cannot be toggled to the other flavors. The ability to allow toggling will be offered on occasion.
Aesthetic alterations are perfectly acceptable -- the kaiken must remain a dagger-appropriate item. You are able to have both a long and a show. It is highly recommended that you keep any long descriptions brief.

EAST: Hideaway Cavern, Passage
| [Hideaway Cavern, Passage] | |
| Damp and somewhat humid, with a small vent occasionally spurting out grey mist, the area is narrow. More like a passageway than a proper room, it stretches a goodly length, with a slope leading steeply downward at the far end. Black ropes are suspended against both of the longer cavern walls, one hung with varied daggers, the other supporting assorted small sheaths. Fending off complete darkness, funnel-shaped glass lanterns droop down from above at unevenly spaced intervals. | |

GO SLOPE: Hideaway Cavern, Skyfall
| [Hideaway Cavern, Skyfall] | |
| Affording a spectacular view of the mist-filled darkness outside, the cavern wall falls away on one side of an upward slope, completely open to the elements and a precipitous drop-off. The opposite wall expands outward, allowing ample room for the wares draped from multiple hooks and placed atop a long driftwood table. Shoved against the walls are substantial piles of dead kelp, which exude the stench of rotting sea life. Almost indiscernible in a shadowed niche, a warped door bears deep gashes. | |
