Shop Atmosphere

“Sister Maribel keeps a small bell behind the counter and rings it once for each major deity's festival — patrons celebrating that faith receive modest discounts. She refuses to sell items explicitly intended for cursing, and will sometimes trade services (minor healing, prayer) for work in the temple garden. The shop is quiet at noon for the daily litany; strangers are expected to lower voices during that time.”
