The Winds of Trade

[Karma]

Thayne Rhaz heads to the Enchanted Cask and Cauldron at 7 Empress Court a rather extravagant document in hand, and cheerful expression. He enters the shop asking for Calimus Vells. "You asked me about a ship, the other day." He would say. "I set a raven for my contact in Cuhanna. He informs me when he has ships for sale. While some can be a bit dodgy, they are generally of good quality and his prices seem reasonable enough. I have been a client of his for some time." Thayne woudl lay out the document on the table for him to inspect.

Most Esteemed Master Rhaz,

Thayne looks to Calimus. "Perhaps you are in luck today. They tend to give me a better deal then most on ship related Business, granted it is a bit far from home..."
