Holehacker

Our shop is number 9 in Aghoria Bazaar. If you’ve ever been to the bazaar, you know how it is—very crowded, lots of smells, and people everywhere. Holehacker is just one of many small shops lined up along the narrow lanes. We don’t have a lot of space, so we have to be very smart about how we store our stuff. Most days we are just sitting on the stools waiting for customers to navigate through the market to find us. The name Holehacker usually gets a few looks, but it’s just what we are called. We deal with whatever comes through the door. The bazaar is a place where you can find almost anything if you look long enough, and we are just a small part of that maze. Sometimes it’s so loud outside with the vendors shouting that we can barely hear ourselves talk inside the shop. We’ve been in this spot for a while now and we know the other shopkeepers around us. We often share tea or watch each other's stalls if someone needs to step away for a minute. It’s a community feel even though everyone is trying to make a living. By the time we close up at night, the whole place feels different as the lights go out and the noise finally dies down. It’s a long day but it’s honest work in the heart of the bazaar. We stay open pretty late to make sure everyone is served.
