A nice time with friends and I'm looking forward to when they have some time to go out just by themselves and enjoy being with each other. I don't know if the diversity of non-magical goods is strictly a cliche', given the enormous differences in population, the non-magical world is going to have greater call for variety, and likely able to supply it more affordably. It should be rather interesting to see where the various plot threads go from here.

Thank you for the comment! I also agree that given mass production and relative population levels it's only natural for the non-magical world to have more variety and more volume. I'm glad you're still enjoying the story.
