Historical Chronicles
The Veiled Bazaar is a bustling, chaotic, and damp market that manifests inside Hull's aquarium behind an ordinary loading dock door. Here, goblin merchants trade illicit scrolls, sprites flit past swimming schools of tuna, and magical spellcasters trade behind massive, reinforced glass. Barty navigates this environment to retrieve a Whisper-Stone. When a wind-based bounty hunter named Gale triggers a storm gust, Barty uses his umbrella to redirect the gale and protects the shark tank with a glass-reinforcement charm, ensuring no marine life is harmed.
