Shop Atmosphere

“The Exchange operates on a mixed-currency system: they accept standard coin (pp/gp/sp) but maintain a ledger of 'University Credits' for bulk trade — patrons with a university letter of introduction receive a 10–25% discount. The walls are living coral that occasionally rearrange displays; bartering often involves trading research samples or access to cataloged memories rather than pure coin. Seleryn insists on sealing large purchases with a pinch of Lazlantus brine (good luck) and always offers tea brewed from bioluminescent kelp while negotiations proceed.”
