Shop Atmosphere

“Maerwyn hums an old half-elf lullaby while mixing, marking each rare bottle with a tiny pressed violet. She offers a free 'tasting' (two sips from lesser potions) to customers who can answer a riddle about their aims. Shelves are labeled by temperament (Calming, Bolstering, Trickery, Elemental) rather than precise effect, which sometimes confuses non-regulars.”
