Action by Ryhalt

The grand opening of Bold Espressions, the latest social experiment and development of the collective efforts of House Farshaw and it allies. A coffee salon to serve the different coffee varieties of the Compact as well as sweet and savory delicacies which complement coffee selections. The business would also feature works of art for sale, and a selection of books for patrons to read at their pleasure and return when they finish. A place for social gathering and discourse which is an alternative to other businesses in Arx.


Action by Ida

Dame Ida Ferron has a particular love of coffee and as such, is well on board with a proposed venue that offers something akin to the famed Tea House. But coffee. She will donate silver as well as resources toward the endeavor.


Action by Lisebet

Lisebet is definitely helping her family set up the new coffee shop, assisting in finding location, name and now helping to host the Grand Opening Event. She's talking about it, working with her family and friends to help create a buzz about it, and lending whatever social clout she can muster to the project.


Result

The Grand Opening of the new coffee shop in town, Bold Espressions, is a popular place to go. Coffee afficionados seem to make it their first stop in the morning, or sometimes their last stop at night, and occasionally a place to go and meet someone for a tasty beverage and engaging conversation. The opening is a success and the talk of the town for a while, and even more than that a financial success from the get-go. Though most businesses close in their first two years, here's to hoping this coffee shop beats the odds.
