### 35

The paved street leads to a large stone building, its walls blank and featureless except for the stains of time. A group of fletchers sits outside beneath a row of bright lanterns, gluing feathers to thin shafts of wood. They work with speed and skill, transforming the rods into arrows of fine quality.

If you wish to stop and investigate the building, turn to 168.

If you wish to continue along the street, turn to 264.
