What to study
An auction reduced to temperament and arithmetic. The three rival houses are not bid histories but characters with current moods - two have already Abandoned, the Veiled Lady is Interested - so the player's real decision is which fixed increment (5, 10, 25 or 50) scares her off without overpaying for their own ring. Selling your craft to named collectors closes the game's loop: the stones you priced at the bench are priced back at you. Frame at about 0:45 in the PV-EN video (Steam), found by the dense 1-frame/2s review pass and inspected at full resolution in this run.
