0001 - Yellow City: Balamar Noble District (Day 1)
In reply to Bimply Thistledown (msg # 26):
The interior of the Ui Manor is colossal, with extremely tall corridors hung every few steps with fancy glass lamps, intricately engraved finishings that are all finely painted, and tasteful placement of various potted flowers that give off pleasant, refreshing aromas.
The firm wooden floor is also neatly covered with ornate rugs depicting varieties of exotic plants, flowers and fruits, and it is that indigo hued rug you follow that stretches through a single corridor that leads you to Ui Yi's workshop.
You can hear the sounds of cranking, moving gears and various clinking sounds from beyond a strangely tall and large double door of varnished mahogany fitted with a shiny brass handle, which you use to pull it open to reveal a larger room with an even taller ceiling.
The room is cluttered with numerous tall shelves containing books, scrolls, tools, bottles of strangely colored liquid, and stacks of brass gears, springs are other mechanical paraphernalia.
And winding a large crank fitted on a giant (about 2 humans tall and wide) but very rusty clockwork golem is Ui Yi, dressed in a plain grease covered robe of orange. The robe itself is also covered with old splashes of paint, strange oils, and even some tears and it seems that it is some sort of work dress.
Noticing the door openning, Ui Yi turns towards you and greets you, clearly happy to see you.
"Welcome back Bimply, how was your day?"
