The bending bow weapon shop and range

Neat and clean, the first impression you have when entering the Bending bow is the smell of sea air and wood. In the middle of the room lays a weave rug. A picture carefully woven in the fine material. A stag stands at attention in a grassy field, while in the distances you can see a young man arching his bow. The walls of the room are covered with bows and arrows. There is a light brown desk at the far side of the room. An Elven man with long black silk hair, with a light green tunic and dark green pair of breeches sits behind the desk busy with paper work. Behind him is a door leading out to the range. The range a place to practice the weapon you may wish to buy. It is also used by the students in training to practice using the bow. Hanging on the door is a parchment paper explaining the price list for each weapon.

The clerk raises his head as you enter, giving you a nod. He waits for you to look around a bit before approaching you.

Anthy walked in her blonde hair flowing behind her. She looked around at the large selection of bows wondering which one would be best for her. Wandering around nervously she considers just closing her eyes and picking one. But before she does that she spots the Elven man and relaxes at the sight of a fellow Elf. "Serale!" she says walking up to him, "I wa swondering if you could help me. I don't know the first thing about archery but I want to learn but I'm not sure which bow is right for me. I want one that's fairly easy to learn. And perferably one that's lightweight since I'm not some big muscular warrior if you know what I mean," she said smiling.

A tall and slender elf walks through the door. His ear length blong hair is neatly kept, with the points of his ears slightly petruding from his hair. He looks around the shop and gives the customer currently here a slight nod, then heads to the counter. He looks at the clerk and asks
"Good day fine sir, I'm nor really here for a bow or training yet, but was wondering, if by any chance you need an extra set of hands to help you run the store?"
He stands patiently and waits for his answer with a smile on his face.

Anthy

The shop keeper eyed Anthy for a moment and then spoke in a low even tone. " Mayhap training is in order miss." He walked over to the desk and pulled out the files on the training. " I have an opening, a few sessions and will build up your strength and train you to use the bow. It'll cost about 200 crowns for the whole of the classes. The cost of the practice is free and of course when you are finished there would be the price of the bow to buy."

The elf nods as you speak and then considers what you say.
" Well, I could use a hand. What other jobs have you held? Are you capable of taking the shop over sometimes when I am training my students?"

Anthy thought about lessons for a minute, Well it's not like I'm doing anything else at the moment, "Alright!" she agreed as she handed the shop keeper the 200 crowns.
