The Tombstone Mercantile With a somber, marble exterior, the Tombstone Mercantile is the largest of the tomb-like buildings in Black Rock. It is a mixture of general store and grocery store. It serves as the general goods store for dried goods like spices, baking supplies, syrups, corns, flours and other dried goods, as well as carrying a number of tools, items, and trade goods not made by the blacksmith that were either imported or made by other residents of Black Rock, and some, but very few, outdoors supplies. The inside of the mercantile is lined with labeled barrels and shelves and racks, holding everything from things like paper to writing supplies to bolts of cloth. The barrels contain syrups, flours, corns, and other dried goods, while the spices are in large glass jars. Customers can come up to the counter and tell whomever is tending it what they need, and the employee will get it and weigh it out for them (if needed) in brown paper sacks or in glass (or tin) jars. It's not unusual for any of the family--living or dead--to help out, especially seeing the current owner is only a youngster - her dead family helps her deal with the place and customers. The Tombstone Mercantile accepts only barter, Ashl, or Bikka. For stock and prices, please see the price lists. The NPCs Secret :
