The black market of magical materials. Affordable only by the richest members of high society. The most common kind of material sold are curatives and curiosities.
|
|
|
|
Before the war, this was mostly alchemical tools, like those used for transmutation of materials. Or cosmetic salves and potions to modify the body in some only arguably supernatural way.
|
|
|
|
With the war though comes a new kind of merchandise. [[Magical weapons]], as well as materials to make them are now in high demand on both sides of the war.
|
|
|
|
The older [[witches' covens]] around Europe are entirely opposed to making, and even more to selling, weapons and magical tools of destruction.
|
|
|
|
Despite no-one being willing or able to make them anymore. A particular militaristic cult has somehow managed to procure a large amount of magical weapons. And has been selling them to the highest bidder. Leading to a dangerous magical arms-race in the trenches of the Great War.

|
|
Within [[The City]] this trade is centered around a small set of [[gentleman's club]]s, as well as the [[Grand Hotel]] in the city centre.
|
|
The gentleman's clubs are where most of the regulars can be found. Those regulars will then often hold meetings with 'outsiders' at the hotel. |
