Entryway
[Mystical Machinations, Entryway]
Tendrils of ice blue mist swirl in an hypnotic dance around a coruscating orb of dark cerulean light that hovers in the center of this chamber. Walls of pearlescent white marble encase the strange building like a tomb, lending a feeling of solace and remoteness to this Enchanter's workshop. You also see a glistening icy mist, an elegant crystal-paned sign, an ornate silver stand with a glistening ethereal tome on it and a glowing portal.
Obvious exits: northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest.

Justicar's Chamber
[Mystical Machinations, Justicar's Chamber]
Golden tower shields adorn the cold white marble walls, lending a regal air to this chamber. A single platinum silk tapestry cascades down from the ceiling, embroidered with the image of a faceless man bedecked in plate mail and holding a broadsword in his right hand and an olive laurel in his left. Soft black velvet cushions lie strewn in a reverent circle beneath the tapestry. You also see a rickety cobweb-covered bookshelf with some stuff on it, a stately onyx-framed sign and a shimmering golden arch.

[Mystical Machinations, Healer's Chamber]
A large crystalline pool inlaid with pattern of twining malachite vines dominates the chamber.

Seer's Chamber
[Mystical Machinations, Seer's Chamber]
Gaethzen globes shaded by veils of dusky crystal suffuse the chamber in a moody pall of midnight blue light, muting the severity of the white marble walls.

Beading (Light)
[Mystical Machinations, Beading]
A nimbus of ghostly light shudders quietly in the center of the chamber, extending its spectral fingers out toward the dark marble walls greedily.

Leaves (Pool)
[Mystical Machinations, Leaves]
A short set of marble steps leads down to a strange pool of dark aether shrouded in a crackling field of lightning. The air is crisp and clean, devoid of any discernable scent. You also see a pearlescent white marble plaque and an ornate silver rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: none.
The plaque reads: o------------------------------------------------------------o | | | o/ Additional Leaves \o | | ----------------------- | | | | If you create one of the custom, advanced spellbooks, you | | may purchase additional leaves, or chapters, pertaining | | specific subjects which interest you. Some leaves may | | only be added to spellbooks of a specific guild. Many | | leaves are open to all for purchase.

Sockets (Fire-shrouded Portal)
[Mystical Machinations, Sockets]
Austere white marble walls rise to meet the domed ceiling. The air crackles with heat radiating from a shimmering fire-shrouded portal that has been torn open in the middle of the chamber. You also see a small silver-framed sign, an elegant crystalline plaque, a deep ebony socket rack with some stuff on it and an ornate crystalline table with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: none.
The plaque reads: o------------------------------------------------------------o | | | o/ Kuldaez Crystals \o | | | | The crystals on the table each possess certain mystic | | properties. They can be placed in a socket on a book | | to produce certain effects to protect or enhance them. | | Each crystal may be utilized by anyone of sufficient | | skill, but only Mages of the correct mana type will be | | able to recharge their effects once depleted. | | | | Kuldaez Crystals: Recharged by Warrior Mages. | | The kuldaez crystal is charged with a matrix of | | elemental energy that is released when one who is | | not the owner attempts to touch a spellbook. This | | will result in either a fireball, lightning bolt | | or frost scythe being conjured at the unfortunate | | sap with grabby hands. The one exception to this | | rule is the hafaltu-veined variety, which will | | conjure an ethereal shield around a spellbook for | | a period of time once invoked, to shield it from | | the elements of rain and snow. | | | | NOTICE: As with all things magical, the crystals are | | not infinite. They will deteriorate with time and | | use, eventually shattering. Those more skilled in | | the ways of Magical Devices will find less chance | | of harming their crystal, however. | | | o------------------------------------------------------------o |

Spellbook Locks (Archway)
[Mystical Machinations, Spellbook Locks]
A dark ethereal archway flickers with instability in the middle of the chamber. Mirrored steel walls enclose all around, highlighting multiple angles of the wares on display. You also see an elegant silverwillow table with some stuff on it, an ornate wrought iron rack with some stuff on it and a dark steel plaque.
Obvious exits: none.
The plaque reads: o------------------------------------------------------------o | | | o/ Spellbook Locks \o | | ------------------------- | | | | This chamber holds an array of locks which may keep | | the arcane knowledge in your spellbook safe from the | | prying eyes of children, enemies, and overzealous | | apprenticies alike. The plain locks on the rack are | | the most inexpensive measure we have available, and | | each come with a matching key. Be warned, however -- | | any key from one of these locks will open its matching | | lock, regardless if that key was bought with that | | particular lock. | | | | If it is more security you require, the bloodlocks on | | the table may be for you.

Spellbook Receptacles (Mist)
[Mystical Machinations, Spellbook Receptacles]
A swirling mass of icy mist churns in the center of the chamber. Gaethzen globes hanging from above illuminate the wares laid out for sale. You also see a varnished ebony plaque, a graceful gold filigree stand with some stuff on it, a circular ebony table with some stuff on it and a polished ironwood rack with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: northeast.
The plaque reads: o------------------------------------------------------------o | | | o/ Chains and Cases \o | | -------------------- | | | | The gold stand holds shoulder chains which you may | | attach to your spellbook to wear it slung over the | | shoulder. The ebony table holds hip-chain harnesses | | that will allow you to wear your spellbook like a belt. | | Be careful in wearing your book with these, as they | | will still be vulnerable to rain and snow. | | | | Spellbook cases will hold a variety of items, including | | your spellbook, wands and rods, runestones, scrolls, | | prayer parchments and various other magic components | | such as naphtha, holy oil or Kort potion. Turn the | | case to shift between the compartments for your various | | items. The cases will keep your spellbook safe from | | the elements, and alleviate that awful clutter in your | | backpack. These cases are padded and custom-fit to the | | contours of spellbooks, and will eliminate the | | occasional damage that may result from jostling around | | in unsuitable containers. | | | | The spellbook cases on the rack are small, but fairly | | inexpensive. Larger cases are for sale northeast. | | | | NOTE: Chains will only attach to spellbooks that were | | custom-made -- not the inexpensive ones off the rack. | | Cases will hold all spellbooks, custom or not. | | | | IMPORTANT: Make sure to specify the number and the | | locations of items you are purchasing. For example, | | BUY FOURTH CHAIN ON STAND. As always, GET the item | | first to make sure that it is the correct one. | | | o------------------------------------------------------------o |

[Mystical Machinations, Spellbook Receptacles]
Badly flickering gaethzen globes hang from above, their feeble light glinting off silver flecks within the white marble walls. A slight chill emanates from all around, giving the chamber the distinct feeling of a tomb.

Writing Tools (Rift)
