Shop Atmosphere

“The shop sits beneath an old elm whose roots thread the cellar; Ephram speaks to his herbs and believes some reply. He prices rarities with a story, not a number, and will barter knowledge or a small favor instead of coin. A bronze bell shaped like a seed must be rung once before asking for rare items—Ephram says it 'wakes the old roots.' The shop smells of resin, smoke, and powdered lemon, and an owl-shaped topiary watches customers from the rafters.”
