What lies within the Shop of Wonders?
  ** NOTE: All items are resetting and non-decay.                                     
- A white crystalline vase, a blue crystalline vase, a violet           
  crystalline vase. 1 Mayan crown each. Like flowerpots, these vases      
  generate new flowers -- but each vase generates only one flower each,   
  and will not generate another until that flower is taken out of the     
  vase. The flowers are unique and not available anywhere else. The white 
  vase generates pale pink calla lilies, the blue vase generates clusters 
  of indigo hydrangeas, and the violet vase generates amethyst magnolias. 
- An olivewood stationery kit. 1 Mayan crown. These randomly generate up
  to 5 letters that are embossed with your name and title. Only the one   
  whose name is embossed upon the letter may mail it.                     
- A trader's satchel. 1 Mayan crown. See Announce news #2756 for details.
- A quartz crystal vial. 2 Mayan crowns. These are artefact vials which 
  have a 1% chance of regenerating a draught when one sips/applies from   
  it.                                                                     
- A crafter's folder. 2 MCs. These allow up to 50 crafting designs to be
  preserved from decay. Preserved designs may not be given away,
  disowned, or unpreserved. You may own as many folders or portfolios
  as you like, increasing your capacity without limit.
- A crafter's portfolio. 3 MCs. These allow up to 100 crafting designs  
  to be preserved from decay. Stacks with folder. Preserved may not be
  given away, disowned, or unpreserved. You may own as many folders or
  portfolios as you like, increasing your capacity without limit.
- A Fluvian jar. 3 MCs. This magical jar fills with 100 draughts of     
  water when you FILL it at a water location. You may then use each of    
  those draughts individually when dousing forest fires or scrubbing      
  graffiti from walls. That means you could douse 100 rooms of fire before
  the jar runs dry and must be refilled! As an additional bonus, if you   
  POUR <jar> ON <self/another person>, you will immediately get rid of the
  stink affliction, though the jar will be emptied.                       
- An Estachian feedbag. 3 MCs. A never-ending feedbag! When attached to 
  a non-pet, non-collared mount, will keep your mount from starving to    
  death. You may order your mount to drop or give the feedbag to you if   
  you wish to transfer it to a different mount. It will return to your    
  inventory if the mount dies.                                            
- A wyvernskin pack. 3 MCs. This pack holds up to 150 items.
- A dragonskin pack. 4 MCs. This pack holds up to 200 items, and it has 
  a lid that may be opened and closed, by anybody holding it (not 
  protected by any special permissions).
- A ram's horn. 5 MCs. This horn allows you to shout from anywhere as if
  you were at a public ram's horn, without the gold cost. Please be aware 
  that this does not protect you from being shout-muted if you abuse the  
  privilege it brings.                                                    
- Obsidian panpipes. 6 MCs. The alluring call of these pipes will draw  
  more rats to you in non-sewer urban locations: 5 per room instead of 3, 
  like the Bardic Rondo. PLAY PIPES.
- A platinum whistle. 7 MCs. BLOW upon this whistle to call all your    
  loyal entities and mounts to you at once, even from across planes and   
  continents. Excludes angels, giraffe balloons, and toboggans.
- Terrin'ukia's Monocle. 8 MCs. This monocle allows you to see ALL      
  secret exits when you are wearing it, without needing to use any        
  ability.                                                                
- A diamond pipe. 9 MCs. This pipe is cleverly designed to allow you to 
  get 15 puffs out of any plant you put in it, rather than 10.            
- a Sceptre of Aqueous Mastery. 10 MCs. Wielding this sceptre, you can  
  part water like a priest and flood a room like a magi. CAST FLOOD and
  POINT SCEPTRE <direction of water>.
 
You may find the Shop of Wonders located north of the Miscellaneous     
Artefact Shop in Delos.            
All items are resetting and non-decay.
