You enter a small magic shop through a dimly-lit door.

[The Mystic Strobe, Candle-Lit Store Room]
The aroma of strong incense assaults your senses here and combined with with flickering of hundreds of candles, even the most magically inept can't help feel disoriented at first. Thick sheets of purple velvet line the walls, covering board and stone, leaving no opportunity for distraction away from a dazzling display of jewelry and magical items of various types. The proprietor sits behind a crystal-top counter, a human shrouded in dark clothing himself, and inhales slowly from a pipe.
Other life here: none.
You are inside.
Obvious exits: out.
