Ńẹ Sọ Anou Kanna

(Wealth of the land)

Developed by Avrae Kyric

The Ńẹ Sọ Anou Kanna - which is Xanthean for "Wealth of the Land" - is a food market, of sorts. To locals, it's usually called Ńẹ Kanna for short. This is a trader's haven, in truth. Farmers trade here primarily, but so do herbalists and anyone who has edible wares. Sometimes people even come to trade furs and other spoils from their hunts - things that can be used just as much as the meat. Others cooked the food they got from the self sustaining lifestyles of the Sev'ryn, and brought it here to sell for extra nel, or even just to give out from the kindness of their hearts.

The prices here are all negotiable - based on barter and trade. It starts with its base price, and then goes down if you're good at arguing why it's overpriced, or up if you tick the traders off. This is a fairly simple way of life. In a way, this place is also kind of like a swap meet, because people can come with their items and sell it off to the highest bidder. Whether you're trading items for other items or trading items for coin, this is the place to do it. Though, as mentioned, it's mostly for food and edible things.

The shop is run by a lovely lesbian couple and their two adopted sons. With one of the women being a Sev'ryn, she fits in naturally here. Her partner, however, is a half-Ellune/half-Biqaj. Their son Augustus is human, while their son Kyle is a Lothar. This shop is known well by locals, and is a very friendly, welcoming environment to all types of people. However, don't be fooled by thinking just because it's friendly, it isn't defensive. These are people who hunt, after all. The walls have bows and spears hanging from them as decoration - but the shop keepers know how to use them, and they don't like thieves.

Skills:
[columns=3]Business Management: 55
Negotiation: 35
Ranged Combat: 10[/columns]

Details: "Dream Ever." That's what Ma'aikata's full name means, and it very much fits her personality. An impressionable woman, she was born and raised in Desnind. She noticed the fact that many of the people made something or acquired something that they sold regularly to make money. With a desire to have a place where people could meet to do this, Maia - as she's often called - saved up her money until she could open this shop. She ended up marrying a woman named Halla, and the two run the shop together with their two adopted sons.

Details: Halla Vriman is not a native of Desnind, but she has come to love the place because she loves a woman who grew up there. Halla is a quiet woman; not timid, just private. She grew up in the snowy mountains of Viden, and attended the university there to learn some linguistics. She came to Desnind hoping to learn Xanthea - and instead found love. Marrying Ma'aikata Kikọsilẹ-Vriman, the two opened a trader's hub together and adopted two sons. Halla has found peace in her life, and faith in Moseke, making regular trips to temple for worship. The seven foot, seven inch tall woman can be intimidating, but if you respect her, she'll respect you.

Name: Augustus Vriman
Created by: Avrae Kyric
Race: Human
Birthday: Ashan 100th, Arc 695
Title: Shopkeeper

Fletching: 20
Seduction: 20
Persuasion: 10

Details: Augustus Vriman is the oldest adopted son of Mai'akata and Halla Vriman. He was adopted as a child and he loves his mothers dearly. He was born in Rynmere, originally from Warrick. His parents died in a bandit attack when he was seven. He was adopted at the age of ten, after his younger adopted brother, Kyle, was. So while he may be older, he's been with them for a shorter time. Still, Augustus loves Desnind and his new family. He helps out in the shop often, being a charming young man with good people skills. However, his real love is hunting in the forest. He's pretty skillful with a bow, and is always improving. Don't be surprised to see him jog into the shop with a slayed Icraphern thrown over a shoulder.

Name: Kyle Vriman
Created by: Avrae Kyric
Race: Lothar
Birthday: Ashan 12th, Arc 703
Title: Shopkeeper
Skills:
[columns=3]Axes & Bludgeons: 30
Negotiation: 20
Gambling: 20
Appraisal: 30[/columns]

Details: Kyle is a born again Lothar. His past life - Kyvalkar - had died in Desnind fighting a Aidọgba Eairo, trying to make it into a mount. Mai'akata and Halla Vriman, newly married, found his newborn form in the remains of his slain former self and carried him to safety. It didn't take much for them to want to adopt him, and he's been with them ever since. Shortly after, Kyle was given a brother in the form of Augustus. They're a pretty happy family. Kyle is the go to guy on appraisal in the shop. He has a better eye for value than either of his adopted mothers, so when a debate over an item's value gets too heated, Kyle is usually the tie breaker. He also is fond of gambling, though he isn't terribly good, but he loves to play games of dice with people who come into the shop. When he isn't in the shop, he's usually chopping wood out back, or practicing his axe work in general. Despite his past self having died this way, Kyle's goal in life is to tame an Aidọgba Eairo and make it his mount.

Hankley's Farm

General Description of Property: Near to the Tosibeere River, just inside the city walls, sits a small farmhouse and a wild section of land (1 Acre). It has a well with a broken pulley, a small house, on ground level, made of fallen wood that was carved into planks. It was purchased on Zi'da 5, 720 by Hankley. The land was wild at the time of purchase, and Hankley has begun her attempts to coax it into something more.

Description of the House: Farmer's housing will be 400 sq ft. Houses include one bed, two chairs, one table, two knives, a set of six plates (assorted), one chest, and a fireplace.

History: The property was originally owned by a woman by the name of De'nasa, a member of the Cazav faction. She was exiled sometime around the end of Arc 719 and the property went unowned and unused until it was purchased by Hankley. The property was generally perceived as an unwelcome place due to the presence of a Lissira worshiper upon it.

Heart-Shaped Nels

Name of Location: Heart-Shaped Nels

Description: The eldest profession in Idalos has rarely found purchase in Desnind, at least as far as organized attempts at setting up houses of pleasure. Until the arc 721 in the Hot Cycle, when a well-publicized brothel, boldly proclaimed to be dedicated to the Immortal Syroa was established without regard for the consequences, and with the pageantry you'd expect of the Immortal of actors, mummers, and those who enjoy pretending to be something they're not.

The reception opens up into a common room, where there is a central, raised dias for performers to ply their trade. Patrons are made to gather and see the flesh that is on offer that night. It is, however, discouraged for those patrons to satisfy their lustful urges within the common room, or anywhere it might be witnessed. In deference to Syroa, the patrons who do pay for the company of a prostitute, are made to wear a veil before they find satisfaction, in order to hide their pleasure from Syroa. For Syroa is not the Immortal of pleasure, but of lust itself. The need for more of what one desires. Satisfaction is the death of lust.

Yet, Violetta, the proprietor of the Heart-Shaped Nels recognizes that she's running a business. And that a brothel that doesn't dole out satisfaction to its customers isn't destined for success. And so she finds a compromise between deference to her faith and the need to satisfy her customers, by requiring the wearing of a veil during acts of lust.

The building itself is festooned with all manner of rich fabrics and streamers, loudly proclaiming that this is a different kind of establishment to the rest of Desnind. Red Iyo lanterns and streamers of red silk show off this place's location, and hang down from the wooden walls of the place.
