The sky was overcast, a few spots of clear sky peaking through the occasional break in the clouds over the capital city of Arca. The streets bustled with activity of people going about their everyday lives; completing chores and errands. A group of children playing hero dash around the crowd, the leader of the children holding a wooden sword up in the air, passing by an average alleyway between a bakery and tailor.

This alleyway was more-or-less average. Except for one sign that was strung across the opening. of the alleyway, a carved wooden sign rough from time. A picture of a potion and a staff overlapped on one side and a picture of a door on the other side. In the middle 'Curio Closet' was written.

At the end of the deep alleyway, there was a light illuminating a set of double doors. Or, rather they would have been double doors. But the left door seemed to have been missing and a thick beaded curtain hung as a replacement.

Those who were sensitive to magic, couldn't deny they heavy aura of magic coming from this doorway. How curious.

If one were to enter they'd see a large room, lined with shelves and bins of items of all kinds. Some mannequins stood around the room, showcasing armor, clothes, or weapons. At the back of the room there was a cluttered desk. Piled high with papers and artifacts, there was a platter with a teapot and two simple teacups. Hanging from the ceiling was an incense burner that smoked with a gentle scent of lavender. Sitting on the desk was a simple bellhop bell, but it seemed to be carved with something, those who understood runes would understand it as a fire rune, and directly above the bell there was a small hole carved in the ceiling.

To the left against the wall was a closet with runes carved all over it, that (to those who could understand what they were) seemed to have no rhyme or reasoning to them. Like the people here just carved into this door without a method. Next to the closet was a spiral staircase. The railing of the staircase had colorful banners, beads and papers tied to it.
