[Cheep & E-Z Petz Kumpanie, Showroom]
The first thing you notice upon entering this establishment is the odd smell lingering in the air. There are so many different odors that the resulting conglomeration is one that doesn't seem quite...right. As you browse, you occasionally identify whiffs of vanilla, potpourri, musk oil, cinnamon, roses, and (oddly enough) what you think is bleach, something that hints of formaldehyde, and a very strong occasional burst of pine. You also see a glass display case with some stuff on it, a sloppy hand-written sign, a crooked table with some stuff on it, a cardboard box with some stuff on it, and a wooden door.
Obvious exits: none.

A sloppy hand-written sign reads:
Aur petz ar gewd. Yew bi wun n tak em fer walkz n stuf lyk dat. Sum er big, sum er hevy, so dun wyne if yew caint shuv em in yer bakpak er sumthin. Cheep n eezy sow we howp yew lyk em cuz we lyk cheep n eezy stuf to.

On the display case you see a fluffy dead sheep with a pink bow tied around the tail, a dead brown and white guinea-pig, an expired blue parrot with a stick nailed to his feet, a small dead dried-up goldfish, a dead rat snake with a large bulge in the middle, a raggedy dead raccoon with caravan wheel-marks running across it and a desiccated dead squirrel with a long fluffy tail.

a flea-bitten squirrel with a tattered tail is 4059 Dokoras
Within its hardened claws a half cracked nut awaits being eaten. A piece of that same nut appears to be the last thing the squirrel tasted as it's stuck firmly in its windpipe. Maybe he should have been a bit less eager to crack that particular nut.

Leathery lips pull back in a permanent sneer from the monkey's long yellow teeth, seeming to mock you even in death! The dried dung matting its scraggly fur powders off easily in one's hands and leaves behind a musky odor. A rounded depression in the animal's back appears to be an elephant track.

You are confident that the dead pullayer weighs around 15 stones.
You are certain that the dead pullayer is worth exactly 4510 dokoras.

a tiny white mouse is 3157 Dokoras

a bloated dead bovine with gangrenous hooves is 14883 Dokoras

You are certain that the dead skunk is worth exactly 5863 dokoras.

a dead black rat with its throat ripped out is 3157 Dokoras

a dead brown gerbil with a crooked left ear is 3157 Dokoras
This poor gerbil seems to have had its left ear pulled off accidently, only to have had it re-attached with several staples and a bit of glue.
