[QUOTE="MacConnell, post: 8106111, member: 6855223"] [gm]The Pavilion is generally the starting point for each resident at the beginning of every day. Of course a day off is a day without pay, but sometimes rest is more necessary. Guild clerks from the Guildmaster District, who have been taught to read and write the cuneiform lettering of the Ansylin language, keep ledgers on all aspects of commerce and its laborers. Data on Flats residents is recorded by name. Though no resident can read, they are not prevented from seeing the information. A few have learned to recognize their own name.[/gm] "[COLOR=blue]Ho! Top[/COLOR]!" At hearing the commonly used, lazy moniker for his name, Antapkos withdrew from his own thoughts and turned to nod at his friend, who everyone called Cormorant. This was not his name. As most Ansylins were afraid of deep water and flowing currents, the nick name was because of his ability to swim. Cormorant was about a head taller than Antapkos and dark, even for his own tribe, dark as the night when the orange moon was in the sky and the silver moon hidden. Perhaps constantly working in the sun darkened his skin even more. The Shimadows never did darken. They turned a pinkish color. If the pink became too pronounced, the individual may even die from the exposure. Everyone wore hats. Antapkos had figured out that if he was able to keep sweating, he did not burn.
