The Preacher

The Preacher is a small bedroom on the third floor of the Blue Octopus Inn. The room has a single bed, a small wooden locked chest and a wooden wash basin on the floor that is emptied and refilled every day. A small wooden shrine to Zalona (also known as Erethus), a deity whose purview is scholarship, is built in the corner of the room. Half-melted candles and bowls of incense sit on the shrine before a wooden carving of the holy symbol of Zalona. A small window looks south over the beach, from where you can see fisherfolk heading out before dawn and returning with their catch later in the day.
