Venture

Venture is an interdimensional shopping mall that might be some kind of ancient deity of commerce????  It scoops up failing stores from various dimension on the brink of collapse and 'rescues' them into itself.

Also seems to like giving people interesting or worldview-changing experiences, which is probably why it's picked up so many people and stores with a transformative theme.  A good chunk of the nonhuman shop owners in the mall did not start that way.
