[Athens, Eidenai Road]
As if seeking protection, rows of houses and other buildings huddle together and line both sides of the narrow road.  Grimy windows in desperate need of washing stand open, in the hope that a stray breeze will happen by and freshen the air within the old buildings.  The few plants in sight are stunted and gnarled and the smell of decay fills the air.  You also see Melanippe and a dark sinister hovel.
Obvious paths: northeast, southwest.

[Virula's Concoctions]
This spartan room is flanked by four carved wood pillars, each facing out to the center from the corners of the room.  A polished counter rests before a wide array of shelves bearing many vials of dark and congealing substances.  Countless glass bottles are placed on every available surface -- none of them labeled and all of them somewhat sinister looking.
Obvious exits: out.

The Poisoner Virula offers her catalog to browse.
