Shop Atmosphere
“Elias always keeps a brass pocket watch on the counter and taps it three times before making a sale; he offers a small discount if you trade mechanical parts or stories of far-off railways. His shop smells of oil, pipe tobacco, and cinnamon; he refuses to sell flintlocks to anyone who can't explain proper loading technique. On rainy evenings he lights extra lanterns and hums an old tram tune—customers often get slightly better prices then.”
