Wondrous and exotic artifacts have always been known to turn up at Penacony's auctions. Your immensely curious self also shows up at the Moment of Dusk's auction house, discovering — to your surprise — that the last item of this auction is a remnant piece of an Astral Express carriage that Aha blew up back in the day (allegedly). The instant it is unveiled, the bidding goes into a catastrophic frenzy, till an astronomical figure silences the entire crowd.

58 trillion credits!

It appears that the golden-haired IPC envoy, Aventurine, is determined to win the bidding war.
