---------------------------------------------------

Growing up in Atlas, Weiss had mostly been used to buildings made of stone, steel, and concrete. She’d never seen many tools but understood they were mostly metal as well. Wood was a touch of luxury seen as panelling or furniture in homes like her family’s. Beacon and Vale had more of a mix given the access the kingdom had to both vast forests and high mountains.

Kuo Kuana by comparison mostly used stone for infrastructure and a few important public buildings like schools and the chieftain’s estate, though those still used a lot of wood in their structure and aesthetic.

The building in front of her was one of those larger stone and wood buildings with two sets of doors, thick wooden ones held perpetually open and beautiful glass ones that visitors to the building passed through as they entered and exited.

As she and Blake walked up to the entrance, they presented an almost monochrome appearance broken only by the touches of midnight blue on Weiss’s outfit and the royal purple in Blake’s.

The simple marquee over the entrance read “Menagerie Museum”.

“I thought that this should be a you and me thing,” Blake reached over to take Weiss’s hand and looked up at the sign with her.

Weiss nodded and turned to Blake. “How long have you been planning to bring me here?”

“For a while, stuff just kept happening.” She said quietly before reaching out for the door and pushed it open for her and Weiss to walk through.

The front room was a wide entrance hall. Photos covered the walls in a scattered, haphazard manner, sometimes alongside a toy, necklace, bit of clothing, or something else hanging from a nail hammered into the walls. Along the floors was a similar collection of items punctuated here and there by candles and flowers in vases or bouquets.
