Sounds of laughter drift across a brook from the northwest, enticing to even the
most stoic of faire-goers. Spanning the brook are several large stones that
serve as a way to cross the running water easily. You also see a dark-eyed gypsy
lass, a dead mournbloom, a sturdy red oak wagon, a stone grey canvas tent, a
patchwork tent, a small green, and an oak wagon with a billowy azure silk tent

[Stone Soup, Tent Interior]
The interior of this expansive structure is lit with a series of well placed oil
lamps, illuminating the displays of merchandise while keeping its recesses dark
and cavernous. Colorful bands of cloth drape from the rafters, drawing the eye
around the room. Hanging from the ceiling, wares on an iron hook and peg sparkle
as they catch the light. A chunky wooden shelf juts from a wall, near a
similarly chunky wooden table. You also see a tent flap.

[Grubby's Mole Smashin' Emporium]
Stitched together out of everything from mud-stained flags and old sales fliers
to clerical robes and even Gorbesh battle banners, the sides of the tent ripple
as the wind outside blows, allowing but the merest of whistling breezes through
the gaps in its poorly fashioned form. You also see a simple wooden ring, a tent
flap, and a mole-smashing game with some stuff on it.
Obvious exits: south.
Bright splashes of color lash contrastingly across the surface of the game in patterns that only the insane or colorblind could ignore. Nine ringed holes are cut into the top, each home to a brilliantly shaded carved mole. Glimpses of wooden gears and taut twine can just be made out in the gaps where the moles rest. A small slot is carved into one side, next to the words, "100 kronars". You could probably JOIN the game, and then POUND the <COLORED> MOLEs to play.

field command post were it not for the elegance of its furnishings. You also see

a gold silk curtain leading into the wagon's work area, a tall framed mirror, a
parchment notice, and an elegant marquetry sideboard with some stuff on it.
