Soup Kitchen & Community Center

[Sceptre]

Soup Kitchen &
Community Center

Open at the end of 718, this is actually two buildings next door to one another with large doors connecting the two. On the left there is the soup kitchen, where anyone may come for a free, hot meal and the right hand building houses the Community Center, where individuals post jobs and tasks which they need to get done ~ and offering their own skills and knowledge in return . If someone is able, they are expected to take on a job or help out in some way in payment for the food. This is never something which is insisted on, but it doesn't need to be ~ there is a very strong sense of peer pressure and the expectation to reciprocate comes as much from the other community members as it does from the staff here.

The food in the soup kitchen is served throughout the trial and is rich and full of vegetables. Served with home made bread, it is a healthy and hearty meal which helps ensure better health for all concerned. The community center aims to improve quality of life while also bringing about community identity and cohesion. From people who need help mending a roof to those who can offer help making clothes or mending around the house. Anyone can come here and put up, or take up, one of the jobs on offer.

This place is run by Isonomia and the Order of the Adunih in tandem. Faith Augustin is often here, working or helping out; as are other Order and Isonomia members.

Pricing

There is no charge here, although the exchange of skills and odd jobs is expected, as detailed above.

Alice is a blue cloak in the Order of the Adunih, but everyone knows that she's here to stop any trouble. She's a no-nonsense kind of person with a good sense of humour and a quick temper. Often, Alice can be found engaged in some contest of strength with a male patron who is larger than her. She usually wins and is most certainly not above dirty tactics to get there. She's a loyal friend who is well liked and respected among the people of the Dust Quarter - not least because it's where she came from.
