Public Room
[Brother Durantine's Shop]
In this small adjunct to a local order of monks, Brother Durantine offers a variety of holy items and related things. An assortment of holy symbols may be had as well as blessed waters, candles and ritual vestments for any who wish to serve their own religious needs. Cool stone walls decorated with scenes from the life of the founder of the order doing various good deeds provide inspiration to all who see them. You also see a dimly-lit storeroom, a private room and a plain counter with a catalog on it.
Note: You may be able to haggle for lower prices depending on your Charisma.
Cleric-Escort Required
[Brother Durantine's, Storeroom]
Behind the counter, a tiny storeroom lined with shelves holds a selection of seasonal supplies for clerics. White-robed novices work to stock the shelves, silently brushing past as they lay out items for the perusal of Brother Durantine's favored customers. You also see an onyx tray with a pilgrim's badge on it, an unfinished maple table with some stuff on it, a golden maple tray with some stuff on it, and a sturdy maple rack with some stuff on it.
