Press <link:context_shop.txt#QuickRef> for the <color:keyword>Quick Reference</color> and <link:town.txt#Shopping> for details on shopping.

Each town on the surface contains numerous shops where you may purchase supplies or sell unwanted objects. Each shop specializes in a certain class of items: The Weapon Smiths sells weapons (melee and missile) while the Armory sells armor; the Alchemist sells potions and scrolls while the General Store sells basic utilities such as food, lanterns and oil. Each town also has a Black Market where you may, for an exorbitant price, purchase items normally found only in the dungeon.

A quick list of available commands is displayed on the bottom of the screen. Simply choose the appropriate command and follow the instructions. Use <color:keypress>Page Up</color> and <color:keypress>Page Down</color> if the shop inventory extends to multiple pages.

Every store owner has access to limited funds, and will only pay so much for items that you sell; this amount is listed next to the store type on the top of the display.
