The Dock House
For all your information needs
Like the docks themselves, the dock house was made up completely of stone safe the door, that was made of steal. The stone here was like the stone on the docks, glossy and smooth, almost as if it wasn’t stone at all. Upon touch it didn’t feel like stone, rather glass. If someone had the brass to test the stones they would see that it didn’t break like grass, but held firm not cracking at all.
It was thought that the docks and building were made of stone to prevent corrosion and rot. Or simply in order to stand a monsoon or other natural disasters that being so close to the docks would involve. Whatever the reason, the building did stand the test of time, it lasted longer than the memory of any of those living on the island.
Above the door was a small wooden sign that was always swinging back and fourth the in sea winds. It was written in simple letters ‘dock house’ as though it were going the pass for anything else. It sat alone, seemingly empty.
The Iron door looked heavy and rough, in truth it was only rough. It opened with the slightest push and turn on the handle. The door opens and swings against the back wall smashing into it. Despite the amount of times that such an occurrence must have happened the stone wall showed no sign of ware. It looked brand new and polished despite the abuse from the iron door.
The young elf however is clearly irritated by the sound and no matter how many times it has happened in the past. She jumps from sitting behind the desk and looks at the door. She looks panicked, every time. It wasn’t often that one came to the dock house, there was little need to. Most people were content with simply walking to the town. Though there were always the ones that stood out and came to the dock house for whatever reason.
“Serale, my name is Ti’ana welcome to the dock house. Is there anything that I can help you with?” she asked sweetly after the few seconds it took to regain her composure.
