The Shoppe of Blossoms

Several miles from the city of Taloba lies a small hut made from various twigs and straw-like materials. A middle aged woman, known to few as Blossom, runs this hut and has turned it into a floral shop for those brave enough to venture out and find it.

At first sight, it appears as though it is too small to hold vast amounts of different kinds of flowers and plants. However, this is untrue, for as soon as you step in it is incredibly larger than initially assumed to be. It's a round hut, and along the walls are pots of plants resembling each and every colour of the rainbow. The woman who runs the store, named Opeca, has crafted an invention, one that allows her to water her plants without having to do it for each individual one. She has placed pipes, made out of bamboo stalks, all around the inner surface of the walls. These pipes have small holes in the bottom which allows water to trickle out over each individual plant or flower. All Opeca has to do it is pour water into the source (a large bucket in the back of the building) and watch the water flow down and water her flora.

As one walks further into the store, they will be greeted by Opeca herself, who will more than likely bust into a lecture about how to care for plants, or will mention the various plants and flowers she owns. She sometimes proceeds to taking her customers and touring her through her store if not stopped beforehand.

Located in the back of the store is her counter, where customers purchase her materials. She not only sells plants, but also herbs and herbal tinctures for the sick and elderly. Behind the hut lies a garden, where Opeca fosters specific flowers until they are ripe enough to pick and place into pots. Trees surround the hut, shrouding the building and creating some difficulty of finding it. Although, there are arrows positioned in various locations in the forest nearby, leading individuals to the very spot of her humble abode. All one has to do is have an open mind to find such a solitary place of which is home to life itself.


 
NPC
ImageName: Opeca Dyzun (aka Blossom)

Additional Information: Opeca (known as Blossom by her friends and favoured customers) has lived in her little hut for many years. She took it over after her father passed away and since then, has ran it without much trouble. She has a divine passion for plants and flowers and nurtures them without difficulty. She's a kind person full of wisdom and virtue which sometimes conflicts with her natural racial attributes.

She has secluded herself from the rest of the city not out of disrespect, but because she finds it easier to become one with the vegetation. She likes the solitude and often takes time to distance herself from civilization to dwell on her inner thoughts. She's always open for a bargain, for she feels that plants should be used in any and every way possible. They are Caiyha's gift to the people of the jungle and she always worships this knowledge with open arms.

Besides floristry and botany, Opeca likes to broaden her skills by applying her knowledge to the art of herbalism. She likes to create medicines out of plants to help the ill whenever she can. She always goes out to get her own plants and flowers, giving her a sense of adventure and letting her relieve her head of all thoughts.

Overall, Opeca is a warm and sensitive individual, although she is rather harsh when wrong doing is forced upon those she loves, including fauna and flora.
