The shop is housed in a nice old townhouse made of carved stone. The first floor has a large shop window, the upper floors has high windows with curtains, that suggest someone is living there. The shop part has some simple stuff and furniture, or generally big items that can't be pick-pocketed in the show room. Then there is a counter, separated from the rest of the room by steel bars and behind that works a woman in front of a showcase covering the whole wall with the more valuable items on display. An iron door with several locks would allow to leave the cage to the left. As well as a normal sturdy wooden door the woman could leave towards the back. There is jewelry on display, as well as expertly made weapons. Golden trinkets, expensive kids toys. You probably could find everything here, if it is worth at least a gold. The woman greets the potential customer with a surprisingly low voice. "Good morning." she puts aside the quill and closes the book. "Are you looking to buy or to pawn?"
"They didn't ask for her specifically." Inavja replies and gets up. "Follow me." Ivanja leads Grergof to one of the private bedchambers on the tower’s second floor. A pretty Vudrani woman, wearing heavy eyeliner and clad in nothing but a translucent silken scarf, waits within. Ivanja introduces the woman as Niama, then wishes Grergof a pleasurable evening, and shuts the door behind her as she exits. You're supposed to leave the coins with her before being left alone with the ohther woman.

Only four guests visited the watchtower that night, all enjoying the services of one of my courtesans. If you are interested, I can arrange a meeting with the woman who tended to the guests on that evening — for the proper fee of course." She writes a number on a note, folds it and shoves it over the table. unfolding the note: 250gp

"This is the Carnival. It is the chaotic neutral card of wisdom. It represents illusions and false dreams." Ivanja tells. She takes the card back, shuffles the deck and lays a harrowing. Watching the cards come together Ivanja becomes very serious. "You must face a powerful force yet unseen that is manipulating the current situation, both in the Shudderwood and beyond. This force is steadily growing in both power and malevolence, and has the potential to threaten Ustalav and the indeed the whole world, yet you are ultimately destined to have a hand in determining its fate." |
