Ierbarium
The city is the centre of production for the region surrounding the town of Palus, and the people here work to produce various goods. However, since the goods harvested from outside city are often prone to rotten from the humidity, they need to be stored in the centre of the city. The scale dome called Ierbarium is the perfect place to turn your herbs upside down and hanged in a warm, dry place that is out of the sunlight.
The herbalists that work for at the Ierbarium are elders and retired gatherers whom main job is to keep burning willow logs and keep the administration running. 5% of of the herbs that are prepared here are claimed by the Pottio since Harold Pottio built the facility centuries ago and the price still remained 15 coppers per day for the administration of the maximum of a sash full of herbs. Normal herbs take up to a week to dry while magical ones depend on the proprieties and the method. At the Ierbarium you can also pay an extra 15 coppers for the herbs to get pressed and turned into oil and an extra 5 coppers to be refined into fine oil per sash of herbs.
The prices only apply if the sash of herbs contains the same herb type and the sash is holding no more than 3kg of herbs.
The workers must wear masks all the time while being inside the dome due to the strong mixed substances that may cause unpredictable harm while combined.
Once 2 months the Ierbarium takes poisonous plants to dry and the citizens are announced to wear their masks and close the windows for a weak and a half for hazardous measures. The citizens agree on this common practice for centuries and it became a part of their yearly routine.
It is mandatory to wear a plague face mask when entering in the Ierbarium in order to avoid poisoning or intoxication. Visitors can buy one at the price of 1 gold piece at the entrance.
