Sesr Glassworks




Sesr Glassworks sits nestled on the slopes of Tenten Peak, this location deliberately chosen to place the owner in the centre of Lhavit for Imageeasy access to the various institutions that might seek her services.

On first approach the Glassworks looks quite unassuming, with the only eye-catching feature being a brilliant blue door and a small sign on a carefully positioned pole that tells the visitor what shop they are standing in front of. There is one window that allows light into the shopfront and shoppers to peer through into the room from outside. There are paving stones that line the entrance and the owner has planted a young willow tree close to the entrance which will one day provide welcome shade.

Inside is the shop, which is drab but neat. Several shelves line the walls, and rows of plain glassware sit meekly in place on the wooden surfaces. There is a list of prices lying on the counter for those that wish to read them. The room is usually quiet and cool as the walls are thick and made of stone. Thin light filters through the window to alight on the stock. The air usually smells of either burning coal or flowers, dependant on whether the furnace has been running recently or not.

Beyond lies a tiny back room with a few loose items or broken shards of glass shooed into corners, as well as a simple candle sconce to allow a small amount of light into the otherwise windowless room.

Another door leads into the workshop, where the business of glassblowing actually happens. This room is somewhat larger than the shop, and has a window Imagethat lies away from the street and offers views of the mountainside rather than out over the rest of the city. There is a large furnace with three separate entrances. The first hatch contains a pool of molten glass which is the basis of Saiyin's work, and the other two entrances to the furnace are used for first re-heating and then allowing glassware to cool slowly so as not to let it shatter.
There is a table with a slab of marble to work the glass upon, and a selection of various tools lie on this surface also.

A simple door leads to the storage room, in which the raw ingredients are kept. Namely coal and sand, each in separate crates. From this room there is a door that leads outside so that Saiyin can easily transport the raw materials in and out without disturbing the rest of the shop.

Well done! I like that you provided the full location description as well as the running total of all the purchases. You did a good job as well with purchasing your assets up front an having everything following the general theme of a glassblower.

I am approving this business plan with the understanding that once your flashback thread is complete, you will have the required skill points for competent.

Disclaimer: This approval is for the business plan only. Actual approval of the full location within a city is up to the attending Storyteller. Any future NPCs must be approved through the Help Desk.
