The Monkey's Paw

The Monkey's Paw

Revered for its mystical artifacts and great customer service, The Monkey’s Paw is the realm’s best emporium for curses, potions, enchantments, and more! Its owner, the formidable witch Lilith, has left for a day on an urgent magical errand, entrusting her beloved shop to the  care of Wymark, her monkey familiar. Put yourself in his shoes as you attempt to keep up with the store’s fast-paced spell-making, demanding customers, and Lilith’s high expectations.
