It deals in magical artifacts and oddities — a place of wonder and intrigue where, by its own reputation, the right item has a way of finding the right customer. ## Location & Geography The shop stands among the refined storefronts of the [[Artisan Way]], the trade quarter of [[Val Miriel]], and is as tidy and well-appointed as its address demands. Inside, arcane devices are arranged across display tables and shelves, books are stacked in generous number, and the more valuable wares sit behind glass in locked cabinets. The whole space is curated rather than cluttered — inviting, faintly uncanny, and threaded throughout with the small blue stars that give the place its name. ## The Shop [[Felix]] stocks an eclectic and ever-changing inventory, sourcing magical items from adventurers and dealers from across the land and crafting his own where he can. His worth to a buyer lies as much in his reach as his shelves: if he does not have a thing, he often knows who does, maintaining a network of contacts through whom he can point discerning customers toward goods elsewhere. On any given visit the stock might run from salvaged ruin-finds and crafted oddments to humble components and the occasional high-value piece he is happy to show off whether or not anyone present can afford it. ## [[The Bloody Nails|Campaign: The Bloody Nails]] #### [[Session 22 - Inferno at Serenity Plaza]] The party visited the Bridge of Stars while resupplying in [[Val Miriel]]. [[Dondar]] bought an Enduring Spellbook and [[Vaeleran]] an Immovable Rod — the latter after [[Kai]] tried and failed to magic a discount out of the shopkeeper — while [[Ryo]] picked up several decks of cards. [[Felix]] showed off a Ring of Protection priced at 6,000 gold, recovered from ruins north of [[Val Aran]], and directed [[Ryo]] to a contact named Aiden in [[Val Aerie]] who might possess a magical quiver. #### [[Session 27 - The Wanted Dwarf]] [[Kai]] returned to the shop to buy ruby dust, taking the opportunity to apologise to [[Felix]] for his earlier attempt to charm a discount.
