Shop Inventory
(14)A glass phial of bruised-rose liquid that mists cold when uncorked. A staple of any adventurer's satchel.
A heavier vial whose contents glow faintly with inner light. Common in reliable magical apothecaries.
A tiny crystal bottle filled with a syrupy liquid that smells of coffee and ozone. Popular with students on exam nights.
A length of vellum written in a cramped, precise hand. The ink runs like moonlight when the rune is traced.
A parchment sealed with three dots of black wax. When warmed, the script flares like embers.
A simple band of dull gold, etched with tiny, looping sigils. Warm to the touch when danger is near.
A compact tome bound in midnight-blue leather. Words rearrange themselves when read at dusk.
A silver-tined quill whose nib never dulls while moonlight touches it. Favored by scholars copying fragile scrolls.
A small vial of ink that gleams with the color of very old paper. Smells faintly of cedar and rain.
A thin bookmark carved from a sliver of mirrorlike obsidian; runes along its spine glimmer when reading difficult passages.
A well-made leather pouch lined with waxed cloth and labelled pockets. Dusty but serviceable.
A lacquered black rod inset with a pale blue chip. When used the chip hums and throws tiny motes of light.
A well-balanced longblade whose fuller is inlaid with minute ink-black runes. It feels lighter than it looks.
A charcoal wool cloak shot through with faint silver filigree that looks like inked constellations.

Shop Atmosphere
“The shop is almost always dim; the owner lights candles only where customers stand. Prices are written with a piece of chalk on a small slate that the proprietor wipes clean each night. The owner constantly annotates purchases in a battered ledger with marginalia in a dead language and occasionally offers a rubbing of a marginal note as a free trinket. Haggling is performed as a short, polite exchange of obscure quotations. Frequenters are encouraged to leave a folded scrap with a single secret written on it—Mortimer files them under 'for later study.'”
