*Through the door is another room, though slightly smaller than the shop. A hammock hangs in one corner, a few blankets piled in the center. In the middle of this room there is a round table piled with books, papers, and little knickknacks. A hearth, built into the back wall, crackles with dying embers. A single window is in the room, the curtain partially blocks the view to the outside. Three chairs rest around the table. On the wall near the hearth there are two long shelves. The first holds a few wooden plates, utensils, pots, cups, and jars containing who knows what. The second holds a partially cut loaf of bread, some fruit, and materials like string, stones, and cloth. A chest rests next to the hammock, next to a wooden bucket filled with cold water.

Tuí takes a few moments to look at the room. It's small, very small. The dens in the Arapaima rainforest were much bigger but they had more resources and were less expensive. You wouldn't pay someone for a home, you'd ask a craftsman to build a home for you and in return you'd hunt for them or try and find more resources like wood, cloth, vines, sand or stone. It was all an exchange of materials and goods.

Still, she sees the room as homey, or for Book at least. The wizard's dwelling may fit in with her own pride's homes if it was in a rainforest canopy and was decorated with dyed, printed cloths and cacao plants.

She first goes over to the jars to inspect them, taking off her bag for now and placing it on the floor. She wonders if Book has any cooking stones. Usually she likes to use a big flat one but she isn't sure whether Book has a cooking stone or not.

*The first few hold ingredients like salt, honey, parsley, and ginger. The other jars, a little further from the first few, hold some herbs like lavender, mint, basil, and rosemary. Some jars contain ink, sand, or ash.

Tuí remembers the rosemary. It sounds like it would be nice with the fish she caught. She returns to her bag and takes out the ingredients on her, including a medium-sized pot, a cacao pod, some nuts and a few wild mushrooms. Placing them on the table, she returns to her bag and puts it safely on a chair before relighting the fire with some more kindle. She would be happy to just eat the fish raw but she knows that it would be best to cook them.

*Meanwhile, Book is sorting through the remains of her wares that she swept up, picking out anything that she might be able to sell to a jeweler or blacksmith for a few coins.

Tuí looks around with a frown for any kind of cooking stone but has no luck. In the end, she returns to the door she entered through.

"Book? I cannot find a cooking stone at all. Do your people have them or do you use something different?" She wears a comically confused look.

*The shopkeep looks over her shoulder with a questioning look.

Book:Cooking....stone? Do you mean a pan?

Tuí ponders this for a while in silence before he makes her reply.

"May...be...?" She gives a confused look again but continues, "Like something you put on a fire to cook on."

Book:So a pan. It might be on the table somewhere. Give me a few moments...

*The shopkeep stands, brushing off her breeches and turning to face Tuí.

Tuí backs off slightly. She isn't exactly sure what she should be doing, everything she's seen is all a little foreign to her and it's scarily mysterious. She'd rather just like to go home, back to her blankets with a small river fish and some herbs for her achy muscles. The long, strenuous journey from the day before has finally crashed down on her. Or was it days? She doesn't know, time just seemed to melt out in the desert, like herself under her fur.

On the other hand, the thought of her journey and her home reminds her to ask Book again.

"What do you think about going to find more items for your store? Would you like to?" She enquires. "You don't need to know right now of course, I'm more tired than I thought and could do with a little rest. I travelled far..."
