The sun was still meandering along its upward climb, and already the day had been very productive. There had been a steady stream of customers both placing orders and picking up their goods (and leaving their payment as they did so - pretty baubles, food, and useful tools were in equal showing). It was getting on to the usual noontide lull, now, and Drooling Blood was about to take her lunch break. Customers were usually busy getting lunch themselves around now, so she didn't expect to be disturbed.
This may have been a mistake.
