Cobwebs lines corners of the area along dusty bottles and old shelves. Potions and ingredients lined the shelves, the inside of the shop not looking like someplace where you would grab an ingredient unless you knew exactly what you were doing. No, this was more of a place where you would ask the owner what you wanted and she would retrieve it for you. Not only in that but multiple books lined the shelves with a couple doors in the back of the room. One door led to upstairs where she mainly lived at and the other door led to her study. Where she would predict futures and perform spells out of watching eyes.

Witches weren't something that the people of Veridian appreciated nor really cared for. Sure, there was some people who treated them no different then anyone else. But it is always easier to pretend you are a normal person, so that's what she did. But Xenia was one who preferred to keep to her own places where she felt comfortable; nature and her home. If she traveled somewhere else it had to be absolute necessity.

Xenia's pale hand brushed a page to the other side of the book as she sat in a larger stool with her feet lazily propped up on the rungs. Business was pretty slow today, but that was fine with her in all honesty. She didn't need busy business to get a good day, just a relaxing day was all she really needed and desired. Sure it was lonely sometimes, but that's okay.
