Located at the heart of the 3rd mercantile district, Horogai Mall is the largest shopping center on World of Dreams, covering four entire blocks filled with department stores, restaurants, make-up parlours, hairdressers and specialty stores selling anything and everything a samurai might need. While individual stores might close occasionally to allow cleaning crews to perform their duties, the immense mall is open around the clock, bright neon lanterns and holographic maps guiding customers to their destinations. The corridors and covered alleys that connect different parts of the mall into a single, vast complex are kept clean by a small horde of diligent heimin and sanitation automata. For the numerous ji-samurai crowding the mall, the pristine and well-maintained space is a world apart from their over-crowded habitation complexes, allowing them to escape the tedium of their lives for at least a short moment. For those with more wealth than common sense, Horogai offers a myriad of chances to demonstrate just how affluent one is; many of the specialty stores catering exclusively to those with exotic and expensive tastes. In many ways, the colossal shopping complex stands as a living proof of the claim that anything and everything can be purchased on World of Dreams.

Red Dragon Tattoos
A shady tattoo parlor ran by a pair of outcast Dragon monks, both of whom have several fleshcrafts. Taking walk-ins, the duo works with both modern machinery and old fashioned needles, their style reminiscent of the neo-traditional Togashi-style popularized by Togashi Satsuki in last decade of the 31st century.

Naugh-tea Little Store
A trendy tea shop best known for its adventurous and questionable blends, serving several unique and original creations. Midnight Blossom, the flagship product of the store, mixes heavily smoked black tea with nutmeg, anis and chunks of cinnamon. The store also carries a series of blends dedicated to Fortunes, with Shahai's Kiss mixing hibiscus tea with chunks of dried blood oranges and small pieces of crystallized sugar being particularly trendy at the moment.

Tian Bubble Tea
Tian Bubble Tea is a well-known among the Unicorn Clan and the store on World of Dreams is nearly hundred years old. The bubble tea chain serves an assortment of traditional bubble teas while also offering a variety of milk-based creations. For the adventurous, they have milk teas, cheese mousse, and cheese cakes.

Silver Frog, 3rd district
Third location of the largest chain of department stores on the World of Dreams, nearly anything and everything can be purchased within, as long as one is willing to pay the premium for 'shopping with frogs'. The department store carries garments from all the major Scorpion brands as well as several lines from notable Dragon and Crab designers. Anyone seeking to purchase Crane or Spider style kimono will walk out with empty hands however, as the Scorpion purchasing agents act under strict political guidance.

Grey Carp
A combination of small sake house and beverage store, Grey Carp sells a large varieties of both local and imported spirits, specializing on Kuni and Yasuki produced sake and shochu. The establishment is ran by a large Yasuki family with no fewer than six children, whom all can be found working within the premises during the night time, their parents keen to teach them the tricks of the trade.

Gilded Claw
Claw is a small trendy boutique selling Ikoma and Akodo designed accessories, focusing on ear rings and bracelets but also selling more exotic jewellery. Piercings are performed on an appointment in a small backroom salon.

Sole Hero
Operated by an old heimin couple and presumably owned by Bayushi Hiro, this old fashioned shoe store sells both locally produced artisanal geta and imported, Unicorn made leather boots and moccasins.

Kochako Fried Chicken
This small fast food chain sells deep fried chicken along with a variety of locally manufactured spicy dipping sauces, a 'flavor to die for' as their commercials put it.

Kinken 金拳
This Hida operated sake house is famous for the inexpensive import spirits served in cheapest glassware found on the planet, as well as the four feet tall maneki-neko by the door, which for some peculiar reason, has a massive right paw reminiscent of a sumo-wrestlers arm.

Once Upon A Theatre
This humble business was started by Suzume Kaito with the intent to run an affordable movie theatre to fit the budgets of Sparrow and even those of ronin. Most of the movies hosted here are typically old classics or films that fell out of circulation. It only hosts a single movie theatre but they alternate their offerings daily to keep things fresh. The theatre has become a fixture and continues to be a draw for many in the mall after many decades. The concession stand is known for its delicious rice cracker snacks and sweet bean soup. Most recently, Suzume Kaito's old age forced him to take a backseat in managing the theatre and he is seldomly scene. The business is now being handled by his grandchildren, who seem to have a fondness for horror movies.

Yogotics
Yogotics is a hobby store run by Yogo Souta that specialized in remote control vehicles, drone robotics, model cars, and other various hobby crafts. The store is rather cramped and it's rather clear that the Yogo runs the business merely as a labour of love than as a means to generate any real profit. Unfortunately, the store is rather cramped and dusty with a large number of outdated parts that have sat on the shelves for years. The soft-spoken Yogo is pleased to have customers browse his store and provide him with company. He is often found working on painting miniature buildings for an ongoing project that has yet to be revealed.
