General Information
The Guesthouse has three shops built into it, which open into the main hall and also onto the main balcony, which serves as the entrance, with stairs and a ramp up to the cliff top, and stairs and the hoist-way downwards.
The first wave of characters to reach Deluzion Break are familiar with these- the others will quickly get to know them.
1) The Barber Shop. Thon the Barber is a permanent resident, and is often hanging around the Commons or the front terrace when no one is in his small shop. Otherwise, he’s often doing small chores for the Last Chants- sometimes he goes to Stonebell with his pet llama. He's here about half the time, and that's when the barber shop is open. He's an elderly man but still fit and active, and is a native of Stonebell, and an old friend of Arcto.
Thon does his simple, basic, customary work. Anyone wanting fancy hair styles should ask the Fairies. They are talented, and often do this just for the fun of it, but the customer should be prepared to accept Fairy aesthetics.
2) “Goods, Trinkets, Gifts and Confections”
There is a changeable assortment of items here. Woolen goods are common. Hats, sweaters, gloves, socks, and other things. There are usually some basic amulets, and peculiar looking jewelry, much of it involving very colorful and brightly polished metal, twisted into little ribbons and medallions. Many look like they could double as fishing lures in a pinch. There are also a variety of candies, many made with that fascinating and valuable product of the Jungle Elves far to the north- chocolate.
The shop belongs to Zynobia, who seems to be either a relative or close friend of Arcto. Zynobia is an old human woman, and looks large and well fed. Perhaps a bit too well fed. and she wears a variety of trinkets and totems. But perhaps she only wants to look like a mage. The look certainly seems to shout out “I have magic!” Zynobia has a young assistant, who might be a granddaughter, niece or something like that. The girl is Mia, and she spends a lot of time studying, and in Zynobia's eyes too much time socializing.
3) "All Manner of Fixes and Repairs Herein”.
Beroozh the Fixit Dwarf and her apprentice Lozzle are here about half the time, traveling back and forth from the nearby Dwarf settlement. They are both female Dwarves. In the shop, they repair a wide variety of items, and when they are not in there is a “just leave it with a note” honor system. They also act as ambassadors for the nearby Dwarves. Lozzle is extremely Official in her ways- even if she is present, she asks that you fill out a "please repair my..." note. Beroozh is not so demanding, and Lozzle seems confused by this. "But you said they always leave a note explaining what it is they want fixed!"
