Pat

: I would suggest talking to Merrick the bookseller in the eatery. He is likely to have some books on that particular topic.

Pat

: I do believe in ghosts my friend, you should too. There are rumours in the mall that there are a few ghosts here. We occassionally get ghost hunters in here looking for them. We have had a couple of deaths in the mall in recent times. We had a security guard die around about a year ago. He died falling off the highest part of the roof. I'd imagine he'd be haunting the place somewhere, though I haven't seen him around. But there was also a body found by security just yesterday. Someone stashed the thing in the Tesla parked outside the gym. I'd personally imagine the ghost of the dead guy will be around somewhere. Security took the body away late last night and cleaned up the Tesla. I believe the police have been called about that body, and they should be arriving at some point soon to take it away. I hope they found somewhere cold to store the body though. The police in these parts are not known for being

punctual

. Hopefully security managed to get whatever happened recorded on their CCTV footage.

Pat:

No idea sorry. I wasn't around when it happened. I only found out when security found the body and then moved it away on one of their robotic trolleys.

( Lol, its just a shadow. There were more of the same colors as I drew the tiles first, but then the shelves appeared on top of the others )

[ambic]

You try to take the vinyl floor tile, but fail. Ill recolor it later to help you with that OCD

[ambic]

Pat. Yes, protection. If want to take a look at the covered antique, feel free

[ambic]

It seems to be an antique mirror, and its on wheels. The rims are gold plated. Its not cheap though. Pat wants 1,500 bucks for it

[ambic]

You see yourself in the mirror, looking great as per usual.

Pat answers, it's protection. The vampires and I don't get along. I don't want them sending some muggins to break my mirror. They keep convincing people around here to break the darn things when they find them.

The window opens.

<primate leaves the antique store>

<Groza529 has limited actions, but has asked me to

Uncover the mirror

>

Quentin uncovers the mirror. It is nice and reflective. He can see himself, and the store in it. Its plated gold, though probably not real gold

[ambic]

Pat sees Quentin looking at the mirror, and Pat walks over. That mirror is something isn't it. I cannot sell it cheap I am afraid, but I have a good feeling about you. If you need the mirror for something, push it out of here when you need.

[ambic]

Quentin asks pat how he will know when he needs it.

Pat says something to him that no one over hears (Check your private thread)

[ambic]

Quentin looks at the crystals on the shelf

The crystals and rocks include
Crystal - A red and blue crystal - looks to have red and blue fluid in it
Serpentine - A purple and green rock. Looks snake like.
Olivine - A yellowish crystalline rock
Sunstone - A red and gold sparkly rock
Tourmaline - an Orangy rock
Aventurine - A tealy blue rock

Quentin climbs out the window, ignoring the gems.

(For the record, two players left by climbing out a window. They are now in new threads related to their current location. Anyone who wishes to follow them, or look out the window to see whats going on may do so)

[ambic]

You can

Quentin enters the room from the Alley.
