A wide assortment of cauldrons, pots, spoons, knives, mortars, and pestles are hung from racks along the walls and ceiling. The various utensils are all clean and carefully hung from the racks, giving the room an orderly feel despite the crowded and cramped feeling brought on by every available piece of wallspace being covered by utensils. To the south is the dining hall where the monks gather to eat, while off to the east you see a number of men clad in gray robes shuffling around a large kitchen. Heat from the kitchen fires wafts towards you. A smallish doorway in the northern wall bears a sign that reads 'Botanical distillation and recombination in progress'. A rather unpleasant odor seems to also be sneaking in from the north. [Exits: north east south] Karthrin is here, seated at the table waiting for his meal.
