The "Starfish" and all its arms
Northeast Arm
Colorful fish dart amidst the greenery in a large tank along the far wall
of the shop. Above the tank, water trickles from tier to tier down a roughly
carved blue sandstone waterfall, finally tumbling into the tank. Light reflecting
off the surface of the water sends flickering patterns dancing around the
room. You also see a low marble slab with some stuff on it and a sign.
Obvious exits: out.
>read sign
A sign reads:
"We offer a variety of exotic fish in sealed aquariums. These are balanced systems, which do not need feeding (the fish live off the plant life in the aquarium). Most tanks have two types of fish, the octagonal aquarium contains four, while the fishbowl has but one." (you get different 'looks' on the tanks with more than one fish. For example a tank with 2 fish will give you two different look descriptions)
>l on slab
On the marble slab you see a sealed glass aquarium, a massive onyx-framed
aquarium, a small gold-edged fishbowl, a large teak-framed aquarium and a
towering octagonal aquarium.

The price on a sealed glass aquarium is 6250 Kronars.
>l second aquarium

[Piralpa Tridents, Coral Showroom]
Sculpted in bas-relief, images of fish with childlike faces adorn the coral
walls, their glassy gem eyes following any motion in the room due to tricks
of light and shadow. The monotony of the rough walls is broken not only by
these cheerful masques but by a series of thick colored bands, adding a rainbow
of seafoam greens, ocean blues and pastel pinks to the otherwise pale coral
room. You also see a sandstone rack with some stuff on it and a sandstone
arch.
Obvious exits: southwest.
>l on rack
On the sandstone rack you see a bleached bone trident bearing intricate carvings, a barbed trident, an enameled trident inset with tortoiseshell chips and a shark-tooth tipped trident.
>app trid
It is a heavy thrown and pike type weapon.
It appears as if it could do:
moderate puncture damage
poor slice damage
poor impact damage
The trident is fairly balanced and is fairly suited for gaining extra attack
power from your strength.
>l trid
The bone trident is in flawless condition.
Detailed engravings depict a battle line of oddly shaped spiders riding giant
fish up the main shaft, terminating only as the designs approach the tapering
prongs.
The sales clerk smiles and says, "The price on a bleached bone trident bearing intricate carvings is 7312 Kronars.
(SW from the main chamber)
[Piralpa Tridents, Shell Showroom]
Shells from a variety of sea creatures turn the floor into a sparkling mosaic
of iridescent color, a strong contrast to the dull beige shade of the walls.
From the pale ceiling hang a few twisted ribbons of dried seaweed, suspending
decorative bits of coral and stone to be reflected in the glossy and buffed
surface of the floor. You also see a blue canvas sack, a polished jade-topped
table with some stuff on it, a driftwood rack with some stuff on it and a
prominent sign.
Obvious exits: northeast.

On the jade-topped table you see a blackened-prong trident with a sharkskin
handle and a flared trident.

North Arm
[Farhana's Exquisites, Sales Room] (a small rectangular pavilion)
Arched coral walls are hung with ivory gauze layered over pale rose silk,
softening the light of the room and rippling with every breeze. Tall seagrass
baskets filled with honeysuckle blossoms and curls of sandalwood and cinnamon
bark are tucked in the corners, lending a light and spicy fragrance to the
air. Big cushions covered with raw silk and edged with tiny golden bells
are scattered near the merchandise racks, inviting shoppers to linger and
choose. You also see a parchment SIGN that you *should read*, some driftwood
shelves with some stuff on it, a teak rack with some stuff on it, a beaten
brass table with some stuff on it, a sandalwood rack with some stuff on it,

Northwest Arm
[Another Man's Treasure, Main Deck]
The deck has collapsed and is now lying in the battered hull, leaving only
open sky overhead. Broken boards scar the floor, but paths have been blazed
between crates under portholes that have survived whatever tragedy befell
this once-noble ship. A fork in the path wanders off to an open archway in
the facade of the wheel house, now leading into the lower bunk room. Gaps
in the hull have been covered with rotting fishnets secured by frayed sail
rope to keep the seagulls and other creatures out. You also see some seagull
droppings, some seagull droppings, a hand-written note tacked between a sign
and a notice, a Ichthyo list, a tangled mass of nets with a salt-encrusted
shell on it, an irregular doorway and a curtain of dessicated seaweed.

A hand-written note reads:

>A Do sign reads:
I have a reasonable supply of various materials that I've found in my quests for treasure that I'd be willing to part with for a price. I can work with leather, but cannot change its properties, only its appearance. Limit the length of your descriptions, the longer your description is the more likely I will edit it. Have several alternate descriptions, I'm a patient man when it comes to dealing with dirt, but not with arguing. I also would rather work with sea themes.
A Don't notice reads:
I do not work with metal of any kind because of a skin condition. I do not work with exotic materials, whether you have them in hand or not. Don't argue. If you argue, you will be sent to the end of the line, and there is no guarantee that I will get to you again.
(through arch from main chamber)
[Another Man's Treasure, Lower Bunk]
Being the home to all the sailors at the bottom of the pecking order, this
room is very closet-like, yet has bunks for eight people. Each bunk is very
slender, and the sailors barely had room to sleep on their sides. The eerie
silhouette of a skeleton lies under a blanket on one of the middle bunks,
its hand reaching slightly over the edge clutching something that has become
barnacle-encrusted from many years in the sea. You also see a disfigured
archway, a decaying hamper, a mangled claw-shaped hook with some stuff on
it and a salt-battered boot rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: none.

In the decaying hamper you see a paint-splattered artist's smock clasped

Kronars.
Southwest Arm
A short, silent, elderly Merelew woman in cream-colored robes sits, arms
akimbo, on a deobar counter. Her face wears a dreamy, contented expression.
Around her move several young clerks, easily navigating piles of pillows
and stacks of neatly arranged inventory. A single lantern beams gently overhead,
powered by the light of lazily circling fireflies. You also see a pinewood
table with some stuff on it and a long wall rack of weapons.

an ironwood staff surmounted by a sculpted ebony raven, an ironwood staff

Southeast Arm
[Eyes of Damaris, Celestial Offerings] (a reinforced bone archway)
Dark and cool, the shop's interior gloom matches its exterior. A hastily
strung banner, proclaiming the grand opening, has fallen to reveal the former
