[Silverwood Manor, Courtyard]
Silver-veined grey marble comprises a short wall that lines the entire expanse of the courtyard. Leading towards the carved haon door of the manor, some short boxwood hedges line the multi-hued cobblestone path. Azalea bushes with resplendent pink blossoms find root in flowerbeds at the manor's base, and affixed to the structure is a gilded plaque. Off to the side, partially concealed by the hedges, is a donation bin. You also see a silver bell with a long silken rope.

An airy sky blue sprite with long fingers flutters up to you and hovers in front of your face.

The sprite says, "Hello there! I'm a wind sprite, and my name is Zuliyo. If you like, I can show you around town, teach you a thing or two, and maybe even find a way to get us into a bit of trouble!"

The sprite says, "So how does that sound? Would you like to go on some adventures with me?"

[You may ACCEPT the offer to travel with the sprite a bit, or DECLINE to go your own way.]

>accept

You accept the sprite's invitation.

Beaming happily, the sky blue sprite flutters over to perch on your right shoulder, exclaiming, "What fun we'll have!"

The sprite reaches around your head to cover your eyes with her hands. "Don't peek!" she says. "We're just going to move to a slightly quieter spot."

[Wehnimer's, Wisraith Lane]
Interspersed among the small shops along the cobbled road are a few modwir-shingled private houses. They are gaily decorated, competing for individuality with one another by means of daubs of colorful paint, skillfully carved doors and shutters, and window boxes bursting with ornamental flowers and fresh herbs. A bright yellow awning lit by a glowing lamp marks the entrance to the florist, whose windows are brimming with fresh blossoms. You also see a white monir gate.

The sky blue sprite says, "I thought we could talk a little bit, you know, get acquainted and all. If you want to do that, give me a nod. If not, a shake will do, and I'll think of something else!"
