A low rumble of anxious murmurs fill this spacious room.  A single small
podium stands center stage to the semi-circle of stadium seating that
defines the audience.  Various items of both antiquity and novelty are held
proudly by the numerous sellers that line the wall behind the auction block.
Auctioneers with items that duplicate those already up for bidding are asked
to stand in a second line hidden from the view of would-be buyers.  Imps
scurry about the floor carefully dragging precious heirlooms up on the
stage.  Occasionally, a dozen of the fiendishly devout imps can be seen
clamouring about a particularly heavy object cursing their employers. 
Cheers are shared at the end of long heated bidding battles and offset the
jeers thrown at those who, for what ever reasons, remove thier items before
they are sold.
