[Location] The House of Glass

[Alice]

DESCRIPTION: The House of Glass, as the name suggests, is a shop selling glass works of exquisite and fragile beauty and elegance. While the owner is rumored to attract chaos and catastrophes, her works are often used for decorating official buildings or private homes, thus known and popular throughout the whole city. The shop itself is a simple, unimpressive building made of white stone and decorated with a few pretty ornaments and symbolic pictures around windows and corners. The focus clearly lies on the products exhibited at the front and main room: mostly basic commodities, sculptures depicting particular landscapes, parts of nature or elemental impressions, the latter with a specialization on water: shaped in raindrops, rivers, splashes and many other incarnations. While the simpler and cheaper works are stuffed at robust wooden shelves, the most elaborate and extraordinary peaces are spread on two dark blue tables in the middle of the room. The owner usually waits behind the counter, either buried in notes and projects or falling asleep while waiting for customers. Behind her back a small door leads to the work room which she uses to craft new peaces. No customer is allowed to enter that room since the burning fire and molten glass can be highly dangerous for the inexperienced layman.

She had come there with a trade caravan of other Konti to learn about the craft of glassblowing and fell in love with her Akalak master. But then she found him betraying her with one of her friends from the caravan and accidentally killed him in her rage. From that on she is cursed by Kihala and target of her minions, and immediately returned to her safe home city. There she managed to start and maintain a small glassblowing business. Despite the trouble she has with the life goddess, despite the fact that some pieces get strangely shattered and have to be crafted anew, the shop is fairly popular at the art-loving Konti. Of course Silene always looks worn and tired, her long ivory hair has lost it's shimmer and the lashes over her violet eyes are usually heavy with a lack of sleep. When she speaks, she does so with low and weak voice and her body language is very limited. However, she still creates incredibly beautiful glasswork with extraordinary talent, creativity and skill.
