A little fancier than IKEA

Ruga greeted him swiftly, setting aside whatever projects he was working on currently to discuss the matter of business that Artorias had come to conduct. Hearing that the talented craftsman did indeed take non-armament commissions piqued the Aegis' interests, and despite his business acquaintance stating he had never worked on any home decor before, that did nothing to discourage Artorias from wanting to use his talents. "It's good to see you as well, my friend. You've been keeping busy, I see," he replied with a casual chuckle. Artorias rested his blue paws on the makeshift counter, rapping his claws against the countertop idly. "I've begun preparations on a room in the castle to hold private meetings between myself and a small group of advisors. One thing I'm sorely lacking for the room though is a table. But the table I want is something a bit more... special," he began to explain. "I had this idea in my head of combining the table with a map, using the table's surface as a topographical map of Boreas and Auster, along with important landmarks and waterways. That way when my council and I are discussing things, we can reference the world map right at our paws."
Artorias glanced up and around at the dark shale that made up a majority of the mountains the Armada had claimed as their home. "I was hoping this table could be made out of stone for longevity, but the rocks you have around here tend to be a bit dark... I'm afraid that might make the map difficult to read." Art looked back down to Ruga then, gesturing across the stall to him. "But that's why I'm here. I'm open to ideas or suggestions, and I'm deferring all the creative know-how to the master. Do you think something like this would be possible to make?"
