The Five Domains Marketplace bustled with people, and the sounds of haggling could be heard everywhere.
Here, there were proper shops as well as ubiquitous street stalls.
The proper shops were filled with a vast array of items—rare and exotic treasures from all over the Five Domains—and their prices were astonishingly high.
The street stalls, on the other hand, mostly sold trinkets or mysterious ancient artifacts. The selection was a mixed bag, with both good and bad items.
This was where a keen eye for treasure hunting was needed.
Most people preferred to go directly to the shops, since the items there had clearly marked prices.
But that wasn't the case at the stalls, where vendors could name any price they wished.
Many people even spent a fortune only to end up with something useless. This happened all the time.
But there were also a select few who spent a pittance and acquired a peerless, world-shaking treasure.
