This small building houses the official market warden and his staff.  The
warden's job is to monitor business practices, regulate unfair prices, and
moderate disputes.  One of the reasons that New Rigel is such a popular
destination for tourists and merchants is because consumers feel safer
making purchases in an environment where protection exists.  
     A tiny yellow feather floats along in the breeze.
     A piece of brightly colored paper has been scrunched up and left here.
     A freshly cracked egg has been abandoned by its owner.
     A small brown ball of waste has been dropped here.
     A long pliant willow twig has been left here.
     A cluster of hairs have fallen here.

The market warden looks over a roster of businesses to see what one is next for inspection.
