The Boat
A large sign hanging in front of this shop brazenly proclaims "The Boat--she sails the ocean for commerce!" The sign depicts a colorful boat with a larger-than-life image of the owner's red rosy cheeks and grin emblazoned on a foresail. This is Colby Weent, a large man who dresses in red silks that match his rosy red cheeks. Cobly lives here with his wife, three children, his mother, and his infirm grandmother, all of whom are packed tightly into the upper floor apartments. The lower floor is a shop front that sells all manner of furnishings, carpets, statues, and other goods for dressing up a home. The interior of this shop is cunningly built to resemble the below-decks chambers of a massive merchant ship.
