Sorzmig Koob · Maps, Exploration Gear, Fey Etiquette & Curious Knowledge
Sorzmig Koob peers over her oversized copper spectacles, surrounded by rolled maps, brass instruments, and shelves overflowing with handwritten field guides.
"Maps! Marvelous things, maps. They tell you where the roads used to be, where the rivers ought to go, and occasionally where the fey would prefer you didn't look. Now, where exactly are you planning to get lost?"
