Home of the Konti people, this ivory city is built of native konti stone half in and half out of the sea. Its borders touch the Silverwood, and stretch upwards towards Silver Lake, home of the infamous konti vision water. [Lore]
This winery in particular has been owned for several generations passed down and renames as it was deemed appropriate. The building itself is made of the same white sandstone as every other building in Mura. Only on the outside between the bricks lays wonderful deep dark wood taken from the Vian tree. The building itself is two stories and located inside The Starry Night gardens. The building interior is a wonderful sight; tall wine racks adorn the walls and form little corridors for prospective customers to walk through. Behind the counter there is a separate wall rack with only a few bottles on it. And beneath the counter in a glass display front are several different types of wine glasses, some formed from normal crystalline glass others formed from more elaborate glasses. There is a somewhat ornate staircase that leads to the second floor where there is a sitting room with several tables and comfortable chairs as well as a fireplace. But the most impressive part of this second floor is the large porch that allows for a nearly 360 degree view of the Starry Night Gardens. On the porch there is a staircase that leads down to the gardens as well as several tables and chairs. The porch is protected completely by an overhang that has several interesting bird feeders hanging from it. One can usually catch a glimpse of a rare bird every now and then if you are lucky. As the name implies the winery is owned by two sisters…identical sisters Jaslin and Jasmine. Jaslin runs the store herself and takes care of most of the Wine making; she is the more charismatic of the two sisters. Jasmine handles the growing of the plants as well as coming up with new concoctions and formulations for wine mixtures. Tasting wine is almost always available and between the two sisters they can please almost any palate.
These price lists are by no means all inclusive as there are services available that are not listed and wines that are available only by Storyteller moderation.
NPCS
The Sisters :
The sisters Jaslin and Jasmine are the owners of the Two Sisters Winery. They look exactly the same even down to their lavender eye color. Other Konti even have trouble telling them apart from afar. However they do possess other traits that set them apart. Jaslin is far more personable than her sister Jasmine, which is why she runs the storefront. She is also responsible for bringing in all the income the sisters get from catering large events, especially during the many dinner events that are hosted during the Fall across the Isle during the Pumpkin Festival. Jaslin usually pairs her services with some of the other business establishments like the Pearl Divers Inn to cater some of the larger events. Jasmine however is by far the more skill focused sister, she devoted her life to understanding the plant life of Mura and all of Mizahar. She has traveled afar to study while her sister stayed on the isle; this fact can sometimes be a sore spot between the two of them. However they are business partners in this endeavor, even though it is rare that one will see Jasmine anywhere but her greenhouse. It is said that she has several secret greenhouses scattered throughout the Isle where she tends to her plants and such. None know where these greenhouses are, not even Jaslin.

The below diagram is a listing of all the bottle sizes the sisters sell. The numbers below are how many standard size wine bottles of wine there are in each of them. A standard bottle of wine is 750ml. I have done the math in ml for each bottle on the bottom in red. As you will note below some wines are not available in certain sizes….and even if they were the prices would be….extraordinary just like the wine itself. If the wine is available in the listed size it’s cost is also listed as well.
These wine lists are by no means all inclusive and other wines could be available by storyteller moderation, and will be added at Storyteller leisure, so be sure to check back!
