Penned in red calligraphy, large letters form the words "VELA'TOHR TOURMALINE" across the top. The paragraph begins: "Mined from deep within the southern tier of the Arncharn Shel mountain range in Forfedhdar, this gem is found clustered densely in small pockets of metamorphic rock. The heat from Elanthia's core reacts with the region's icy climate to formulate a unique crystal structure rich in natural pigment-enhancing minerals." The text appears to continue further down. |

[Blanve's Bounty, Den of Decadence]
Diaphanous gossamer scarves of crimson and gold veil the gaethzen orbs dangling from the ceiling. The spheres glow softly with alluring, jewel-toned light to subtly illuminate the shadowy space. Positioned in twos and threes, plump damask pillows claim the floor along the edges of the dusky, silk-draped walls. In the room's middle, wisps of scented smoke float lazily upward from a tall bronze censer, its sophisticated ornamentation a perfect match for the plush indigo rug's elaborate maze pattern. You also see an unfurled length of parchment pinned conspicuously to a wall, a shrouded doorway and a lacquered table set low to the ground with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: north, northeast, northwest.

[Blanve's Bounty, Oasis of Opulence]
Extensive murals illustrate an exotic desert horizon at twilight. The black-painted ceiling dilutes to shades of rich purples and pinks, eventually culminating in a white-orange band as it meets the sand decorating the lower half of the walls. Miniature gaethzen orbs dot the sky to emulate twinkling stars, illuminating the tranquil scene with a subtle glow. Tall potted palms in large golden urns frame the pebbled beige carpet, and a majestic rock fountain stands prominently in the center. You also see a silver sun with some stuff on it, a golden sun with some stuff on it, a platinum sun with some stuff on it, a silver cloud with some stuff on it, a golden cloud with some stuff on it and a platinum cloud with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: east, south, west.
[Blanve's Bounty, Sanctuary of Splendor]
White marble columns adorned with climbing jasmine vines border the area at even intervals like a temple, strategically revealing glimpses of the shimmering midnight blue silk draped smoothly underneath. Brilliant gaethzen orbs glow overhead like will-o'-the-wisps caught in perpetual luminescence, bathing the displays in pools of starry light. A shadowy expanse of luxurious black carpet draws attention to the sparkling quartz sculpture stationed conspicuously in the room's center. You also see a silver star with some stuff on it, a golden star with some stuff on it, a platinum star with some stuff on it, a silver moon with some stuff on it, a golden moon with some stuff on it and a platinum moon with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: southwest, west.
[Blanve's Bounty, Garden of Grandeur]
Lustrous deep green silk covers the walls and ceiling, enveloping the area in luscious color on par with the lavish earth-brown carpet underfoot. Sculpted terra-cotta pots filled with blooming flowers border the display area, and tiny gaethzen orbs suspended from above hover effortlessly over the wares like curious fireflies on a midsummer's eve. The musical rhythm of chirping crickets lingers in the air, emanating from somewhere close yet out of sight. You also see a silver butterfly with some stuff on it, a golden butterfly with some stuff on it, a platinum butterfly with some stuff on it, a silver blossom with some stuff on it, a golden blossom with some stuff on it and a platinum blossom with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: east, southeast.
