Shop Atmosphere

Merri constantly hums old bardic tunes and has a penchant for telling wild stories about plants that supposedly can talk back. She insists every customer try at least one bizarre smoke or brew before leaving and offers a 'luck-charm' cigarette paper with every purchase. The store’s back room doubles as a low-key speakeasy where patrons can sample rare blends while a fuzzy lute plucks in the background.
