Shop assistants are second in command in the general stores and various specialty shops that they work in. They help the shop keepers run their shops. Players can still buy and sell items from the shop assistant for the same prices as the shop keeper would offer. Shop assistants are always located inside the general stores that they work in, usually close to the shop keeper. Their dialogue is the same as the shop keepers' as well, and there is very little difference between the two from a player's point of view.
