The outer areas of the market were the first to be swarmed, as they were the ones selling fresh produce, which the locals would want for their daily meals. Before anything else, the daily shopping needed to be done.
Then, as the initial wave of produce buyers and meat shoppers began to head back home, the other locals in need of goods began to spread through the market.
It was still quite early in the morning, so most of them would be doing their shopping before starting work for the day. But that was the best sort of customers for the market.
If you came before work, it was likely because you actually needed something, not because you wanted a break from work, and were browsing the market during lunch.
A few shoppers passed by their stall with curious looks, off to find healing herbs or other alchemical supplies. That was annoying Remi, who was working in the lab in the Tiny World.
They could be selling potions too, but they weren't.
