Miz and Sel

[Inauri's Home]

Ivory and gold silk-hung walls stare silently at a bare gold and black sand floor.  A brick-lined firepit, with a bronze Ushnish etching hanging above it, rests between a gilded oak heartwood table and a polished ironwood-framed sandpit filled with powdered obsidian pushed up against the walls.  The room holds a lingering scent of oshu'mary.

You also see a door and a lined leather trunk with a skull shard on it.

Also here: Life Mage Mizehra who is sitting on the sandpit.

Obvious exits: none
