A swirl of translucent fabrics, a hint of distant aromatic spices serve notice of the exotic goods in this tent. Large stuffed pillows lie scattered about the floor. They seem to animate in the flickering dance of a single torch, suspended in an iron brazier from above. Abu Hassan sits immersed in his own finery, watching his clerks transact business. You also see a tent flap, a gold earring stand with some stuff on it, a crystal rack with some stuff on it, a glass case, an inlaid marble tripod with some stuff on it, and a fur-lined tray with some stuff on it. Obvious exits: none.

On the earring stand you see a thief's silver earring that resembles a pair of swiftly flying feet as it swings back and forth, a white silver cleric's earring shaped as two hands raised in benediction, a golden empath earring that displays glowing hands gently clasping a small night-blue sapphire, a paladin's earring shaped like a burnished gold longsword and thrust through the earlobe, a disk-shaped moon mage's white gold earring that appears to shift through moon phases in the light, a trader's hoop earring threaded with a dangling gold nugget, a warrior mage's earring depicting platinum sword and lightning bolt joined in harmony, a ranger's onyx earring shaped like a masked raccoon clutching a tiny longbow, a bard's earring displaying a pair of linked jeweled masks for comedy and tragedy and a barbarian's earring carved from kertig to resemble a tiny forge.

On the crystal rack you see a scarlet wimple befringed with pear-shaped seed pearls, a fanciful feathered fur-lined brown hood, an exquisitely crafted golden fillet, an opalescent herringbone barbette, a silver-threaded crespin interlaced with peridot stars, a scholar's black silken skullcap with gold threading, a flowing emerald snood encased in a cascade of blood red garnets, a deep blue wimple encased in flowing veils like midnight and a soft white doeskin hood threaded by a delicate halo of intertwined golden silk.

In the glass case you see some tightly fitted doehide leggings, some scarlet-colored leather tights engraved with leaping orange flames, some midnight black tights covered with grinning interlaced skulls, some black leather leggings striped with white satin and some thigh-length dryad-skin boots.

On the marble tripod you see a barbarian's black eyepatch covered in vulture feathers to simulate a bird of prey, a moon mage's silver eyepatch inscribed with astrological symbols highlighted in diamond dust, an empath's eyepatch colorfully embroidered on white satin with a pattern of healing herbs, a trader's eyepatch made entirely of finely spun golden thread and shaped like a nugget, a bard's blue eyepatch engraved with the silver image of a lute, a ranger's green eyepatch emblazoned with a gleaming golden arrow, a warrior mage's red eyepatch engraved with the image of a fire ball, a paladin's shield-shaped eyepatch embossed with the image of a clenched gauntlet, a black and white thief's eyepatch with vertical stripes resembling the bars of a prison cell and a cleric's pale silk eyepatch embroidered in delicate spun-gold with bolts of holy fire.

On the fur-lined tray you see a moon mage's wristlet of beaded gold covered in an array of multi-colored crystal shards, a paladin's wristlet etched in silver with the pattern of a clenched gauntlet, a thief's wristlet forged of blackened steel to pass for a manacle with a dangling broken chain, a cleric's wristlet carved from fine gold to resemble a well-used prayer scroll, an empath's wristlet of filigreed silver covered in gems the color of freshly spilled blood, a ranger's wristlet of fur-lined rawhide supported by branches of barbed wire, a bard's wristlet of carved onyx musical notes that flow together like a symphony, a warrior mage's wristlet intricately carved to resemble an inferno of red-gold flames, a wide trader's wristlet covered in a multitude of shiny gold nuggets and a barbarian's wristlet made of cured kelpie leather and interlaced goblin bones.
