A few items were surprisingly pricey. And even more of them were rare.

"Anything catch your fancy, hun?" Ponnamie, now more accustomed to you, gave you a flirty wink.

"Where'd you even get half of these things?" You asked.

"One of my daughters goes with her Master all around the world, and they collects all sorts of junk. I jus' take the moment to sell it." Said the bunny woman. "Hey, don't look at me like that! They let me do whatever I want with 'em."

"I can sympathize." Said Ayane. "That aside; how were you able to purchase the items from the Academy? I've been trying to obtain witch's brooms for nearly half a century, yet they always seem to be a close guarded secret."

"Oh, they are." Pomegranate confirmed. "They're jus' nice enough to let me have them cause my late hubby was part of the Mage's Guild."

"Since your husband passed away, who owns the store?" Mel continued asking questions out of curiosity.

"Mah son does." Pomegranate revealed. "Ah jus' take care of everythin' an' make sure it stays clean."

You feel like you could direct the conversation to go a certain way.

>Ask her about herself and try to learn more about her. You were curious as to why she was here to begin with.
>Ask about this place, and her recommendations on what to do to make the plaza better.
>Continue asking about where she got the rest of the items. You're sure her daughter had stories as well as items.
