The Arcane Advice

Background:
Started by Eardrieaulle flas'Seralta of Evermeet (Moon Elf Wizard) as a Harper base of operations (not common knowledge) and to legitemise her magical identification services in the town. Among the main services include identification and consultation services regarding magic and magical objects, history and fundamentally any other question that someone might feasibly ask about. Providing a handy way of maintaining a current knowledge of everything going on in the town it is normally operated by Llewel, a ludicrously tiny Barn owl who acts as Eardrieaulle's familiar and more recently Cedrilan, Ed's half brother while she is unavailable. It's opening hours are clearly visible by the large purple glowing sign visible over the lintel that is dimmed while the owner is out.

Appearance:
The shop is primarily two levels with the bottom floor serving as the main shop floor, in a large open plan space filled with bookshelves and small objects. The main objects currently hidden within the shop include a statue that may or may not contain possession magicks, Hallowed Chalk required to sever the curse affected Willard, and several other potentially dangerous items.

The rest of the room also contains a small kitchenette and tea set for guests situated near the front door and a set of low set couches that are used for consultations and relaxing.

There is a small office behind the main room that serves as a storage area and active work space for Eardrieaulle's current research.

The upper floor serves as her private chambers, with two bedrooms (only one of which contains a bed) which serve as a meditation space and private study. Each of these areas prominantly feature woven tapestries significant to her Academy or religious significance within the Seldarine Pantheon.

There may or may not be an indeterminate number of traps and other deterrents to thieves present throughout the shop such as across each of the windows and doors, including the cat flap installed after Dancer (Half Elf Druid) tried to sneak into her shop unannounced on one occassion. It is made abundantly clear that guests should use the front door unless otherwise expected.

Services offered:

 * Magical identification and explanation of items and effects
 * Curse removal (within reason)
 * Research and Academic connections
 * Secure information services
 * a small rotating selection of magical items based on what she can source from her contacts from the University Town of Lark's Drift (coming soon)

As one of the more senior Arcane students in the town the shop functions as a way for non magically inclined members of the town to be able to access information and services that they cannot access normally.
