After weeks of preparation, the second Merlin shop finally opened its doors to the public. The new establishment was a grand three-story building, strategically located on the bustling Centauri market street—a prime spot that required significant effort and negotiation to secure.
While Centauri City was less populated than the Golden City, it was still one of the ten largest cities in the Alpha Quadrant. Emery had chosen this location not just for its size, but for its proximity to and connection with both the Magus Academy and Utopia City. Additionally, Emery had established strong relationships with several leading factions in the city, making this a natural choice for expansion.
