A Glimpse at Arcanial, Pt. 2

The Great Emporium  
№2 Caldwa’s Terraces. 
This multi-level, high-end store sells all manners of luxury items of interest to magic-users, from practical but jazzed-up everyday tools of the trade to the weirdest doodads, all at extravagant prices but with a solid warranty and excellent return policy. Empty grimoires, smooth scrolls, rare inks, fine wand wood, spellcasting components, ornamental stones and gems, pearls, rings, pointy shoes, hats, robes, and cloaks, feathers, fancy masks, carpets, furniture, laboratory equipment, flasks, trick chests, decorative sarcophagi, wax dolls, scented candles, lamps, Lao-Kweian incense, Munaani myrrh, Kumoshiman chopsticks, talking fish trophies, and reams of magic items (locked in glass cases—please ask for help for the latter) are some of the goods available if the gold is right. An entire aisle is devoted to wizardly socks—sober, garish, or merely elegant, anything from mundane hosiery to exotic weaves can be found.
The entire edifice is enchanted to prevent not-so-honest clients from walking away with unpaid articles, causing the latter to be returned to their shelves and the former to a holding cell down on the Wyvern. Two dozen watchful faeries sporting the emporium’s green and silver livery provide discreet but efficient customer service. Two large gorilla-shaped golems sternly stand by the exit, next to the registers in case of trouble there. If needed, the store’s faeries can awake them and lead them to a shoplifter.
The business owner, one Gabbie Glittamax previously known as Maddie Magpie before she moved to Arcanial, owns the distinguished establishment. This crafty gnome started her business with a small shop in the Lower District, and gained notoriety during the past decade, being particularly skillful at getting what her clients were looking for. Nearly anything can be obtained if the price is right. Gabbie handles private negotiations and special orders in her office, on the sub-terrace floor. Warehouses, workshops, and break rooms, reach as far down as the Banshee.

With two successful punches, gorilla golems can slam shoplifters on the floor, stunning them for 2d6+2 combat actions, drag them back to the store’s register area, and pin them down until the city militia can intervene.
