To the east lies a broad intersection. To the west, the road narrows slightly as it is impinged on by debris, bones and burnt-out shops, beyond which the scarred and blackened western and southern city walls intersect. You also see the gemcutter's shop. Obvious paths: east, west.

>appraise


Skywolve asks the gem dealer to appraise 
the contents of a bone white cloak.
The gem dealer takes the white cloak 
and inspects the contents carefully before saying, 
"I did find 106 gems that I'll give you 47970 silver for, if you want to sell."
The gem dealer then returns a bone white cloak to Skywolve.


>sell (container with gems in it)


Cayge asks the gem dealer if he would like 
to buy the contents of his black silk cloak.
The gem dealer takes the black silk cloak, 
inspects the contents carefully, 
and removes the gems he is interested in.  
He hands it back to Cayge along with some silver.

[Gemcutter's, Salon]
Set aside from the hustle and bustle of the front room, 
this cozy salon has an atmosphere of luxury and comfort.  
A warm fire crackles in the hearth, and thick, 
colorful carpets cushion your steps. 
Sparkling display cases show off the finest gems, 
exquisitely crafted and faceted to catch the warmth 
and brilliance of reflected light.  
You also see a gold veined marble counter.
Obvious exits: west.
