The man would glance up at Aviva as if he wasn't asleep since the beginning. He would reach under the counter and set an opened box of tissues on the counter for Aviva. "Been a while since I had customers..." he would say in a low voice. Unknown to Aviva at the same time what would appear to be an identical man as the one at the counter would tap Viola on the shoulder "Anything I can help you with miss?" he would ask her. As if the man was in two places at the same time, or just identical twins. It would be hard to tell if one could see both at the same time. Unknown to the two in the store, the door would of silently locked itself, it could be opened but only from the outside. Trapping anyone who enters. Both men would rub their chin as they listened to anything that Viola and Aviva would have to say before suddenly stating to both of them "Since it's been a while since I've had customers... I'll make a special deal today.. you can pick one item from the store and may have it for free" he simply states.
This was a simple test, for there was ten items in the store that held magical power inside them. If they would choose one of them because they felt something then they would have passed. But if they choose anything else he would deem it was just a mistake they arrived. The ten items would consist of a blue jeweled necklace, a small wooden wand with various carvings in it, a simple white glove with an alchemy circle on the back of it, a complete black dagger with red markings on the side of the blade, A scroll that has drawing of 'magical circles', A small silver ring that resembles the Dragon god of infinity from mythology, a monocle with nearly invisible engravings in the glass, a small totem carved in shape of monsters, a playing card that has the Norse god Thor on it, and finally a simple white robe with a cross on it.
these items would be scattered in the shop, some under junk, while other on the shelves in plain sight.
