Keth'Lindyl Square
  Day or night, the mood of Keth'Lindyl Square is festive and energetic.
A steady stream of arials moves through the area, constantly doing business,
gossiping, socializing, and sometimes just fluttering around and being seen.
A wide pathway has been paved with brightly colored cobblestones around the
mountainside, and open air markets have been opened alongside their
more stable versions nestled against the mountain.  The road is well-tended
and in between the merchants' stalls is a of mix flowering and fruit trees.
Other brightly colored flowers have been planted in an attractive pattern
here and there along the way, all in all making this a pleasant place to
shop.

Pik'caryl's Bar
  The rich scent of roses envelopes you as you enter this darkened bar.
A chandelier is hung from its high ceiling and a gentle glow of lit candles
throws constantly shifting shadows over bar stools and patrons alike.  The
bar itself is black wood, its ebony surface worn smooth by use.  Arcing bars
have been studded in its length every three feet, and you see that some of
them are tied with silken ropes.  Many of them are still knotted, but most
hang slack.  The bar stools are covered in the most luxurious of red velvets.
On each end of the bar is a crystal vase filled with dozens of roses, every
one a dark and satiny blood red.  Black booths with high walls are along
the walls, each one with a heavy red curtain that can be pulled over to give
privacy.  Pik'Caryl is more than a little infamous around town for her racy
inclinations.  A heavy length of red velvet hangs over the doorway to the
west, held back with pristine white silk cords.

  Rich, musky rose envelopes your sense as you enter, combining with just a
hint of darkly herbal incense.  Several giant pillar candles in reds and black
are strategically placed around the room, their flickering light doing more
to add shadow than destroy it.  The carpeting is black and so thick and plush
that it nearly feels like dense fur.  Scattered seemingly at random, adamantite
eye hole screws have been bolted to the floor, many of them tied with red
silk cords.  Black brocade embroidered with elegant white roses lines the
walls, its deep color making it difficult to judge the actual size of the
parlor in the dim lighting.  Opulent divans and settees have been
strategically placed so that Pik'Caryl can watch every naughty activity
that takes place in her parlor.
