Qho'sovo

**Qho'sovo** is a location in the Puhan Trading Company*/The Underdark*. Yashani, Boreal and Alaerith first visited *Qho'sovo* on a mission to unlock another section of *The Book of Sanguis* in "Strands of Fate".

*Qho'sovo* appears deceptively quaint from the surface, but a closer look reveals a tunnel leading straight down to the salt mines below where most of the city takes up residence. The area of *The* *Underdark* where the mines are located are assumed to be secluded with no other known civilization near it upon its discovery. The citizens of *Qho'sovo* travel between the surface and *The Underdark* via a worm tunnel that goes straight down where they have made an elevator to travel the five miles down to the mines. Many of the same shops can be found on the surface and *The* *Underdark*, allowing for the convenience of not having to travel up and down the *Worm Tunnel* everytime you needed something. Although there are some shops that can only be found in *The* *Underdark* and vice versa with the surface city, giving these businesses a sense of exclusivity. *The* *Underdark* version of *Qho’sovo* is something out of a child’s imagination. A fairly large cavern houses three decent sized city streets, all bright with strips of colored magical lights. The tight quarters of the cavern make for *The* *Underdar*k *Qho’sovo* make it always busy.

**The Well**

The area on the Surface where you can find items for purchase and a place to stay the night. *Salt Shop* and *Tally’s* are located here.

**Middlehouse**

This area is largely made up of homes and apartments for the miners and citizens.

**Hayvalley**

The main area where all the import and export of *Qho’sovo* happens. Populated by mostly warehouses and storage areas.

**Old District**

The business section of the surface, where the main offices and barracks can all be found.

**Town Center**

The center of town is where the large elevator known as the *Worm Tunnel* is located. Right across from the tunnel on the western side is the large downed tree trunk that houses *Nature’s Monastery**.***

* *Captain Tinal - P.T.C.*
* *Captain Blith - Skorian Army*

*The* *Underdark* counterpart is on Canis St and there is one barracks for both the P.T.C Security and Skorian Military, as the defenses within *The* *Underdark* are far more lax. The soldiers are supervised by *Captain Mesilgron* of the Skorian Army.

#### **Nature's Monastery**

The monastery is carved into a large hollowed out tree trunk that fell over many years before anyone resided in *Qho’sovo*. It is known to train both monks and druids who want to be more closely focused on their connections to nature and the elements. It resides right near the center of the surface town, adjacent to the *Worm Tunnel*. The monastery is maintained by a glowing human named *Brock*.

#### **Tally's Tavern & Inn**

The place to be in the evenings on the surface. Tally’s is a bustling little tavern found in *Qho’sovo*. Frequented by many; sometimes just for their famous Pumpkin Pie; because of the great service by Tally and her daughter Tilly, both Tieflings. There is a branch of the tavern in *The* *Underdark* on Bellion St and is run by Tally's son Thomas.

#### **Salt Shop**

A local item shop that carries a large amount of supplies, general weapons & armor and mining items. It is ran by a older dwarvish man name *Giles.* There is a branch in *The* *Underdark* on **Bellion St.** and is operated by Giles’ son, *Hanathorn.*

### **The Underdark**

The area of *Qho’sovo* that resides within *The Underdark* consists of three streets, each one roughly a few hundred feet in length. The *Worm Tunnel* comes down on the south end of the streets and all three proceed in a northern direction. The streets are Riker Street, Canis Street and Bellion Street.  All the streets and shops are lit by magical light tubes of different colors (similar to neon). Many of the shops and homes are dug out of the cavern and its walls.

#### **Fangaborro’s Forge (Cannis St)**

A dwarf operates a forge in *The Underdark* of *Qho’sovo*, he is also known to be a quality healer if any of the miner’s suffer any injuries. He is the younger brother of *Frederick Fangaborro* from *Kheellud*. He goes by *Finneas Fangaborroi* and can be recognized with his signature black and red beard.
