 "note": "The Caravan Market (owner, round 7: amends ADR-018). A small, capped daily and weekly shop where Zoe can buy progression helpers. Prices and caps are proposed; OPEN-7 sets the Zoe pack prices and the M8 economy simulation checks the caps against free-player drop rates (design target: a full daily set equals roughly 45 minutes of normal play, a full weekly set roughly 4 hours).",
 "proposed": true,
 "rules": [
  "Per ACCOUNT caps, shared by all characters. Daily stock resets at 04:00 server time, weekly stock on Monday 04:00.",
  "Everything bought is ACCOUNT-BOUND: it cannot be traded, stalled or mailed to another player, so Zoe can never be converted into gold through the player market.",
  "Only helpers: refinement implements, orb shards and boss trophy materials. Never XP, drop rate, gear, +refinement levels, complete rare orbs or anything that is boss-only by design.",
  "Quest-critical boss-only items (Scorched Ledger Page, Caravan Master's Seal, Gilded Bell Tongue, Heart of the First Kiln, Resonant Jade Shard) are never sold: they stay boss-only (cosmetics.json).",
  "Prices are in Zoe per pack; every pack's cap is shown in the window together with the time until reset.",
  "The gold side of the market is a gold sink: unlimited visibility, weekly caps, prices rise 15% with each purchase in the week and reset on Monday."
