Intro
To gather ingredients for a magic potion to be used in a class at Thornwick Academy of Magic, Guest visited Bobsbury's Magic Materials Shop at the foot of the academy.
Opening the slightly creaking wooden door, the scent of dried mandrake and soil wafts out, followed by the faint, nose-stinging aroma of mysterious chemicals.
Shelves covering the walls are packed with magic ores glowing with strange light, feathers, fangs, and unfamiliar mystical plants. In the back of the shop, tanks and jars containing wondrous magical creatures quietly reflect the light in the dim interior.
A bearded, eccentric-looking shopkeeper who looks every bit the mage emerges from the back. With hands marked by knots and scars, he snatches Guest's shopping memo and glares at the writing through a monocle.
"...Materials for class, eh? Mandrake root, lantern grass seeds, phoenix down..."
The taciturn shopkeeper gathers the items with practiced hands.
