Vivi barters with the merchant

Vivianne walked up to the stand, taking a quick glance over the variety of scrolls on display, each one was labeled accordingly for each school of magic, along with fine print which described the specific functions of the spell. The cloaked vendor was silent as she looked over them, waiting patiently for her to make an offer.

Vivi, however, pursed her lips in disappointment. "I've seen all of these before." Leaning an elbow onto the stand, she asked. "You wouldn't happen to have anything else, would you?"

A low chuckled emitted from within the cloak's hood. "Of course, but I'll only sell these spells to those I deem skillful enough to use them properly."

Vivianne narrowed her eyes. "I'm not doing a demonstration if that's what you're asking."

The vendor shook his head. "No, no, I wouldn't dare. I can tell just by looking at you that you must be an esteemed witch. More than capable of handling these spells." The vendor made some space on the stall by brushing a few scrolls out of the way, then produced a new set of three from within his cloak. "Take your pick." He offered.

She quickly read over the descriptions of the new scrolls, one was an advanced fireball spell. Flashy, for sure, but not terribly practical. Another was an invisibility spell. Useful, for sure, but Vivianne already had one of her own. And finally, teleportation.

She picked up the third scroll and observed it closer.

"I'd like to barter for this one."
