Welcome. Well, that's what the sign out front said, anyway. Place looks a little dusty; full of empty shelves and display cases filled with hay. A dim light shines down on a single display case, catching your attention. You notice a few eggs within it, and walk closer.
"Don't touch!" A voice cries out, and you jump, alerted by the sudden noise. A tall young man with bull horns walks to the side of the case, hand on the side of it protectively. "Here at The Curio Cabinet, we prefer the eggs only touch their owner; so the bond can start as soon as possible. All of our eggs are found, not bred, and we believe it's only best that the future companion is the first person they bond to." He gives a small nod, and you can see his reasoning.
"How do I get one?" You ask, interested in the tiny morsels nestled in the hay. "Show us an offer we can't resist, and the little one is yours. Once you touch it, it should react and start to hatch. We cannot guarantee what is inside any egg, though their patterns often match the colour of their eggs. If you win the auction, you'll be allowed to nurture and influence your egg shortly before it hatches. Now, if you need anything, let me know."
Neat. You look over the current selection of eggs, wondering if you should buy one or not.
