Location
Tidewater Mystics Emporium is located in Tarrinport, Joriah, near the markets by the shore, easy to locate by the shifting colours of the stone and thriving plant life that look like they should only survive underwater. This is the only permanent magic shop in town and is often trading with the merchants that specialise in magical products and materials.
Atmosphere and Appearance
The enchanted stone walls of this two story structure shift between deep ocean blues and seafoam greens depending on the light and the tide, never failing to draw attention with the aquatic plant life that lives in the cracks of the stone; sea anemones and coral sway in the wind as if they were still underwater, thriving. Delicate silver filigree create wave patterns across the surface and a sign hangs above the door, a piece of living coral that spells the shop's name in bioluminescent letters that pulse slightly, like a heartbeat. There are two large spiral shells on either side of the door, serving as planters for sea grasses that sway in non-existent currents.
Heading inside, the sounds of the port fade, replaced by the gentle whisper of distant ocean depths. The floor is smooth sea glass in shades of blue and green and feel a little damp underfoot but not slippery. The ceiling appears to be domed and looks like the underside of the oceans surface, complete with shifting patterns of light filtering down from above with the occasional silhouette of a fish, sea turtle or shark passing overhead, however touching the ceiling reveals it to be flat, solid stone. The walls are lined with living coral shelves that slowly grow and re-shape themselves, kelp curtains that divide the different sections of the shop and a tide pool in a large circular depression in the middle of the shop where a sea elf sits cross legged; items float and bob in the water, including paper and scrolls that don't appear to be getting wet, the water never spills or makes anything wet. On one wall is massive aquarium filled with exotic sea creatures, with small compartments that house what you assume to be the most valuable items in the shop, guarded by curious octopi and watchful seahorses that can bring items closer to the glass for inspection.
