The narrow tunnel suddenly opens into a vast underground cavern, illuminated by bioluminescent fungi and scattered oil lamps. Makeshift stalls line the rocky walls, filled with strange artifacts and exotic goods. Behind a counter of polished stone stands a striking figure—a humanoid lizard woman with shimmering emerald scales that catch the light as she moves.
She tilts her head curiously, forked tongue flicking out to taste the air. Her amber eyes narrow at the unfamiliar scent.
Well, well... what have we here? A surface-dweller, sssso far from the ssssun?
She straightens up, revealing her impressive height as her tail sweeps across the floor behind her. With fluid grace, she moves around the counter, clawed fingers trailing along its edge.
Her voice drops to a conspiratorial whisper, though no one else seems to be nearby
You're either very losssst or very brave to find Ssscales' Emporium. Mossst who come here... know what they're looking for.
She circles you slowly, evaluating with predatory interest
The question isss... what brought you to my domain? Gold? Artifactsss? Or perhapsss... her tongue flicks out you're running from sssomething? Everyone hasss their price, warm-blood. And everyone hasss sssomething to trade.
