Once owned by John Constantine, ownership has passed to Luna Lovegood since early 2022. Similar to the old shop in Deerington just a little more dated, a place that has feel of overall safety to it. The room is moody in lighting with the use of lunar orbs and candlelight, but there's a sense of cosiness to it — if one doesn't mind the taxidermy. An open plan split over two floors, separated by a metal spiral staircase, the main floor houses most of the stock and items with additional stock kept on the upper floor, which is more bright with natural light. A wood fire burns on one side of the room, surrounded by living room furniture: leather sofas, an armchair, side tables and a coffee table. There is also a large table for working, littered with texts and items of whatever it is Luna's currently working on, plus the sales counter.
Through to the back of the building, there is the back rooms. Spaces that make the building seem bigger than it actually should be. Most of the rooms are empty and unused, or simply locked, but there is even a living space back there, once inhabited but is now currently empty.
The shop houses a collection of curiosities and occult items, the most dangerous of those being kept under very tight lock and key. If something appears at random that wasn't there a second ago, it might be best to just leave it be.
In terms of stock, Ritual Gig features a collection of occult/supernatural texts and grimoires from the multiverse, along with texts native to the Waking World, ranging on topics from spirits and spiritualism, cryptids, demonology, medieval apothecaries, blood magic, occult magic, Corruption and Beasthood, and more. There is a sizeable stock of magic items such as items made of deer antlers, blood stones and various items made from them. Equipment for magic work can also be bought here: a small amount of ingredients, new vials, silver knives, cauldrons, and just about anything else one might need for ritual needs. Potions and tinctures are also sold here, with a good many of them being from Luna's homeworld: poison antidotes, calming draughts, sleeping potions, burn salves, etc. The stock is constantly expanding when Luna is able to obtain more ingredients from her homeworld.
There's plenty of other things, but if you're looking for something specific, you need only ask. © tessisamess
