Lathleer's Central Market

Lathleer's central market is open for business,a fter being shut down in all of the tumult a couple of days ago. (Tumult which you started but also finished.) It runs about 800 feet down the main section of the city. Only small handcarts and ponies are allowed here, as it is mostly foot traffic. The central market is about 20 feet wide, with recessed stalls and doors that lead to steps going down to various establishments. A loose netting covers the market's length, blocking out the worst of the sun, both for light-sensitive types and those who do not wish to swoon in the hot weather.

Being such a human dominated city, humans are seen the most in the crowd, but there are many half-elves, a few dwarves, several halflings, and some goblins. You see one set of goblins running a shoe shine booth, a city halfling arguing with a rough-shod looking barbarian halfling from the Talenta Plains who leads a fierce dinosaur on a leash, an orc druid with hsi owl animal companion looking over melons, and two longtooth shifters dressed in capering fools clothing putting on a juggling performance. Many members of the watch are also visible.

As you stroll along, several people recognize you as the heroes of the sewers, and give you warm welcome. A gnome bard dogs your heels for a bit, singing a ditty about those who come and serve and save, and then he darts off when he spots some female gnomes with very revealing clothing.

You are near a Dwarven alchemist, a House Sivis station (the dragonmarked gnomes who deal in long-distance magical communication), a racous pub known as The Green Bull (which is supposed to be a great place for picking up on rumors), and a halfling-owned tailor's shop whioch specializes in unusual and exotic clothing, including darkweave and glamorweave garments. In fact you see a customer leaving right now, a wealthy woman and two servants. Her gown puffs up magically, and several minor gemstones circle around her neck in a tight, glittering, arcan orbit.
