Shop Atmosphere

The forge constantly hisses and ticks. A brass raven perched over the doorway caws a single note when a customer bargains successfully. The floors are black with coal dust but immaculately swept in patterns. Brix keeps a small cup of coil-oil and offers it to customers; those who accept receive a quick, friendly calibration of any purchased clockwork item.
