Your parents are going out of town, and so they've sent you off to live with your Uncle Jack for a month. You've never actually met him before, but you've heard that he's a little out there. He also owns, works, and lives out of his costume shop. You've never been the biggest fan of Halloween, but hey, maybe it'll turn out alright.
Your taxi pulls up and stops at "The Second Skin". You get your bag out and see your Uncle waiting inside. He's... wearing some sort of strange robe. The image of a wizard pops into your head for a moment and somehow fits. Then you realize he's probably just showing off one of the store's costumes for prospective buyers.
"Howdy Uncle Jack!" you say setting down your bag.
"John! How are you! It's nice to meet you!" he says, giving you a tight bear hug.
He shows you around the shop. There's the front of the store, littered with row after row of popular costumes, and then the back of the shop with a warehouse full of somewhat more obscure costumes. Upstairs there's two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a living room. It's actually starting to look pretty nice. Maybe this won't be so bad after all.
Something's been bugging you though. Uncle Jack's still walking around in that robe. The store's closed by now and yet he's still waring it. It's kind of strange.
"Hey Uncle, why are you wearing that robe anyways?" you ask.
He laughs, "Because John, I'm a wizard."
Alrighty then... someone's on board the crazy train. Might as well go along with it thought.
"A wizard 'eh? What do you do with your magic?" you ask, actually a bit curious.
"You know, this or that, the usual stuff," he says nonchalantly.
"Anything more specific...?" you ask.
"I enchant my costumes, go fetch one and put it on, then you'll see," he says.
You decide to go along with it. Walking downstairs you start to wonder what kind of costume you should wear.
