In the endless void of the universe, where no stars shone and no sound could exist, a gigantic shop floated silently.
It was so vast that calling it a building felt wrong.
From a distance, it looked like a small galaxy drifting through the darkness. As one drew closer, its true size slowly became clear. This single shop was larger than countless worlds combined. Even massive Astral Seas would look tiny beside it.
The shop did not rest on anything. There were no chains, platforms, or laws of physics holding it in place. It simply existed, as if the universe itself had made space just for it.
Its outer structure was formed from materials no one could name. The walls shimmered with layers of light, sometimes transparent and sometimes solid. Moreover, the walls were constantly shifting between reality and illusion. Countless ancient and profound runes flowed across its surface like living rivers of symbols.
