Dusk yawns as dawn breaks. The stars keep spinning, even out of our sight. To unravel them alone is an onerous task.Seek the aid of the Karakul's Paw.
Faint smoke lingers on the wind-- but instead of ash and char, its scent is light and herbaceous. To follow it leads you to a well-dressed stall. Set within walls of woven silk tapestry, it provides an oasis from the noise of a bustling market.A cursory glance reveals tables dressed with furs and silks. The displays are laden, if not a little disorganized. But they bear stones, vials of oil, bundles of herbs, and trinkets. All seemingly mundane, to the untrained eye. Close at hand sits a marked mat, splayed across with cards and cast runestones.Casually leaning against his stall table, a miqo'te donning a horned mask regards you with a warm grin...What most piques your interest?
