Shop Atmosphere

The shop is a cramped two-story apothecary and scriptorium tucked between a tannery and a locksmith. Shelves of glass vials and pigeonholed scroll tubes crowd a workbench cluttered with quills, mortar and pestles, and a battered astrolabe repurposed as a potion-drying rack. A faint, pleasant scent of bergamot and ozone hangs in the air. Vashara keeps a sleepy orange tabby called Ink tied to a brass ring by the counter; Ink will knock a bargain-seeker's coin purse off the counter if the price is too high.
