Come find us in the shopping district in QueenCity! There's so much to do here that you can ''never'' get bored!!! <> == Background == A long time ago, a little girl named '''[[StephanieNilssonYes|Stephanie Nilsson]]''' inherited a lot of money from her rich grandmother. Being 8 years old at the time, Stephanie used her money to follow her childlike dream: to build the biggest, grandest toy store in the entire world!! Stephanie decided to call her place Stephanie's Toy Palace--cut her some slack, she was 8--and Stephanie's Toy Palace quickly became one of the most popular destinations for children not only from Centralia but from all across the region. == Toys == Stephanie's Toy Palace is internationally renowned for its wide selection of toys. We've got all kindsa stuff!! * The largest selection of '''plushies and stuffed animals''' of any store in the world! * A '''video game''' section offering every game console ever released...as well as several which were ''not'' released! * An elaborate '''model railway''', with tracks twisting and bending all across the store. Curious children often note that specific trains seem to be "following" them around the store, as they encounter the same train across multiple different parts of the store. * Throughout the store are several signs pointing to '''"Treasure"''', though the arrows on the signs seemingly contradict each other and, if followed very carefully, simply lead the follower into a complicated loop. Spoiler: the treasure was YOU all along!! == Princess Alice == Upon hearing news of the toy store's opening, PrincessAlice herself decided to pay a visit. She was given a VIP tour by Stephanie herself, and the two quickly became close friends, with the Princess visiting Stephanie's Toy Palace nearly every weekend and hanging out with Stephanie as they played with the toy trains and dollhouses and all the latest video game consoles. Unfortunately, as the years went on, Stephanie and the Princess gradually fell out of contact. Nearly 30 years later, however, the two were reunited when Princess Alice paid a visit to Stephanie at her home in CalicasCorner. While initially surprised to find that Stephanie had become an adult, the Princess invited Stephanie to take a train to Queen City to visit the Toy Palace, where they picked out special kites for each other. They then took a bus to the remote Queen City suburbs and flew the kites together into the sunset (with some assistance from Princess Alice's wind magic). The two have since kept in contact, meeting up once a month to revisit Stephanie's favorite childhood hangout spots. ---- CategoryBusinesses
