The Bending Bow

[Reliant]

The Bending Bow was a neat, clean little shop exactly opposite Crossed Swords in the Market Square. Built of wood, it seemed as if timber had absorbed the smell of sea air, and the building always seemed to have a slightly fresh, salty smell about it. The door was a simple oak affair, nearly always propped open to allowed potential customers inside to look at the wares, or to purchase some time on the archery butts out the back of the store.

The main feature inside the shop - apart from all the bows and arrows that lined the walls - was a finely woven rug that covered a large portion of the wooden floor, placed in the exact centre of the room. It showed a picture, that of a large stag standing in a grassy field, and a young man in the distance, arching a bow. The detail had been finely woven, and looked much of a masterpiece, a credit to whoever had created it.

Behind a light brown desk at the far end of the room an elven man sat, age indeterminable, silky black hair tied back into a sleek ponytail that showed off his pointed ears. A small frown marred his forehead as he concentrated on some paperwork scattered in front of him. Just behind the man, the door to the range lay open, revealing a bleak looking yard with a few archery targets scattered at the far end. Hanging on the wall just beside the door was the price list containing all the standard goods available in the shop, as well as the amount of crowns required to use the range.
