“The shop is run by a husband-and-wife pair of former adventurers who still argue like battle-tested teammates. He greets customers with a dry joke and a measuring eye for packs and boots, while she quietly notices who is lying, who is hurt, and who needs an item they cannot quite afford. Their general store smells of dry herbs, oiled leather, candle wax, and fresh bread from the adjoining kitchen. Old trophy maps, a cracked shield, and a dented helm hang over the counter, and the couple discounts useful gear for honest folk while charging extra to known troublemakers. They keep a jar of "campfire debt" on the counter for local kids and desperate travelers who can pay later.”
