Near the campus is a street set comfortable within the large, varied city. Buildings here nearly defy the appearance of the rest of the city, appearing classic and homely, and displaying timeless wares along the well polished windows therein: musical instruments, well groomed flower beds, antiquated furnishings.
The little shop sought, however, is made known by a large wooden sign that features a burned in logo of a sword set aflame, and below it similar care given to the shop's title, "The Martial Mystics." Making loud hollow steps onto the patio of the front door, you pause before opening to read a parchment stuck to the door's window by clay: "I already know about this Moonfey nonsense! Stop acting as if there weren't gods before the old gods. Go to a bar and sing about it for all I care!" Knowing that you aren't bards of Muunfae, you pay this no mind and enter anyway.
You step into very warm reddish and brown colors, a lobby meant to feel comfortable. A chair behind a desk turn towards you, revealing a robed man holding a smoking pipe. With a genuinely surprised beaming grin, the man releases a breath of green mist in front of him, which Draco would be very aware is an alchemy drug formulated to draw upon sensations; it is more powerful than simple tobacco. The man's voice is loud and direct as he addresses those that come in, "It's rare to see a pile of customers to browse my wares." The wrinkling in the man's face are not bothered to be hidden, nor the wisping in his graying, thinning hair. He glances between the two, sipping on the tail of his pipe while scrunching his forehead with brows raised. He determines, "I see one of you has a fine eye for swords, and the other..." he gets up and walks to Tiberius, scouting around him to look at the vast array of weapons he has, "doesn't know quality when he sees it. You look like you've picked out every weapon you can think of but never a one that you can say is your friend... I don't even see anything that could constitute as magical. Come! We need to find you a weapon that you will stick with and learn to appreciate. What is it you are looking for?"
