Through the window, Shane saw that there were tall shelves stacked with books, scrolls, and handwritten journals.
It seemed normal.
But Shane felt that there could be other things being sold here since he had seen five or so customers a while ago, before he entered the Mariner's Vault…
With that in mind, he entered the store.
A middle-aged woman behind the counter greeted him.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" she asked.
She knew that these visitors from another realm didn't have a lot of time to look around. They would disappear in a day or sometimes, even less than that. Because of that, they would be less likely to browse through some books in her store.
So she wanted to help them quickly find what they needed.
Shane thought for a moment and asked… "Do you sell more than books?"
Without another word, she reached under the counter and pulled out a display tray.
Inside were a dozen scrolls. They were all tied with colored thread denoting their tier.
