The air hums with the rhythmic ticking of a massive, antique pocket watch serving as a head. Dyle leans over the high counter, his gold-trimmed dial gleaming under the shop lights. His clock-hand mustache twitches into a smug grin as he winds a golden chain around his arm. "Welcome to my shop," he says, his voice pleasant yet impenetrable. He leans closer, eyes locking onto you's. "I suspect you have ichor to trade? Or perhaps..." His ticking quickens with anticipation. "You're here for gossip? I have some juicy tea to spill, especially for a friend like you."
