Nimkin's Chocolate Shop

[Reliant]

Located in the heart of the Abestatian Market District, the very exclusive little shop looked very plain and mediocre, an image that certainly didn't match the quality of its merchandise. The slim red-bricked building stood inbetween two somewhat larger shops, and was often over looked. Fitted perfectly between the bricks was a pristine glass window, not a single finger print showing up on it. The window display contained chocolate-and-gold coloured drapes, and two gilded stands, displaying the shop's finest wares, two boxes of the Thane size continental collection.

A gorgeous smell seemed to perpetually waft out from the building, which was how the shop attracted it customers. Very few people could resist that smell. Chocolate, cream, hazelnut and coffee all wrapped into one. The door to the shop had been painted chocolate brown in colour, and a small, non-descript plaque saying 'Open' was currently hanging in the small door window.

Once stepping inside the lovely smell of chocolate only got stronger, causing the greatest of chocoholics to drool at the mouth if they didn't concentrate hard enough. A small bell tinkled as soon as the door opened, attracting the attention of the small gnome sitting on the counter top. A chocolate coloured curtain hid the entrance to the back factory rooms, where all the chocolate were being freshly made. Display cases all around the room held the various types of chocolate the shop sold, all kept behind protective glass panels, all locked and secure. After all, no one said chocolate was cheap, not in Nimkin's.

Nimkin was dressed in a chocolately fashion, along with the rest of the shop. He wore a brown waistcoast over a copper-coloured shirt, and chocolate trousers to match. Being the proprietor of the shop, it was always good to keep up appearences. A small apron hung on a hook near the back door, something that the gnome wore when out in the back area, to avoid spoiling his clothes.

Looking up at the new customer and subtly eying their pockets for a bulging wallet, he said cheerily, "Serale! Welcome to Nimkin's exquisite chocolate shop! May I help you make a purchase, perhaps?"
