[QUOTE="Systole, post: 5889129, member: 93930"] The way down to the Central Port leads along the Via di Banchine, Venza’s coastal road. The road is, as usual, thick with wagons and pedestrians, merchants and stevedores. It takes some time for you to make your way to the port, but not long after that to find Franco Specialty Goods. The building is a warehouse is good repair, and despite the building’s modest size, its close proximity to the docks means that the real estate alone must be worth a small fortune. A steady flow of loaded wagons comes in and out of the shipping bays – some head to the nearby docks, others turn inland. A smaller door leads inside, and passing through it, a small bell announces your presence. Immediately inside is an open area with several desks piled high with papers and parchments. A small army of accountants arrange and rearrange the documents, occasionally reaching for an abacus or a pen. The office area opens to the warehouse proper, where laborers load and unload the wagons with crates and boxes and barrels. Unusually, many of them are dwarves, or female, or both. A rather portly but extremely well-dressed human seems to be directing most of the laborers' work, while occasionally signing papers that the accountant-types thrust at him. The heavyset man looks up at the sound of the bell, and says something to one of the female dwarf laborers. She nods and walks over to you. While her attire is mostly simple working clothes, she’s wearing a single animal fur over her shoulders – a sign of kinship to some dwarven clan, perhaps? – and she’s carrying a stevedore’s gaff-hook. And for a dwarf, she is strikingly tall.
