The Mirror Maze Market
A wandering market sets up in town, its stalls arranged in a maze of mirrors. Shoppers see twisted reflections—some younger, some monstrous, some missing entirely. Those who buy from their reflections receive cursed goods. Those who refuse are followed home by what they saw. Navigate the maze, find the merchant at the center, and learn what they're really selling before the mirrors multiply.
