Like A Kid In A...Oh, You Get The Idea. [Open]

Tucked away in a corner of the bazaar is a wee little shop, painted in bright gaudy colors meant to specifically to catch the eye of any passerby. Unlike some of the other nearby food stalls that sell more savory goods, this one seems to specialize in sweets and desserts. There are all sorts of strange looking things here to tempt one's sweet tooth, from bright pink and black cake-like rolls dusted in powered sugar, to a green jelly-like substance cut into cubes and studded with nuts, to lemon sherbets, wrapped pieces of taffy and everything in between.

Jamie stumbles across the shop completely on accident, but finds himself drawn in by the display. His attention is caught by a tray of what looks like rock candy. However, each carefully arranged piece glows ever so faintly, as if lit from within. The shop merchant, realizing that there is a potential customer here, hastily covers up a hole left by a previous purchase, blocking the small, low wattage lightbulb that is actually the source of the illumination. The Scot, his attention focused on a goodly-sized chunk of the stuff (in red, of course), is too distracted to notice.

"Hey, would ye look at that!"

What would a glowing candy taste like, he wonders? It's definitely tempting to buy some right away, but as he turns his head, he spots a display of tiny warriors made out of marzipan, and he wanders away from the glowing candy to go take a look. At this rate, he might be here some time...
