BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIESRastalh says: "Percival i have an appointment in the Winch. Did you receive a badge for me maybe ?"
Diunti steps out of the gate to the Winch and looks around.
Rastalh says: : Oh, i see miss Berinat already, sorry for disturbing you Percival."
Rastalh Rhupial greets Diunti Berinat. Diunti looks to Rastalh. "I'm glad to see you are ontime sir."
Rastalh smiles "Yes, it's nice, i would have drunk too much ale maybe as it gets later"
Diunti looks to Percival "I have a special pass for Mr. Rhupial here for entrance into the Winch."
Diunti says: "If you will follow me Mr Rhupial I will lead you to our office. I know Mr. Hambaro is intersted in talking to you today."
Diunti turns around and enters through the open Winch gate. She closes the gate after Rastalh has entered.
...
Rastalh says: "Are you enjoying you stay here ?
Diunti smiles at Rastalh " Yes our stay has been most enjoyable so far."
Fenwirdle slowly gets up from his chair and walks towards Rastalh, with his right arm stretched foreward. "I am so glad you could make it to this meeting"
Rastalh steps forward and makes a bow to mr Hambaro.
Fenwirdle puts out his hand for a handshake. Rastalh shakes Mr. Fernwirdle's hand, then says: "a comfortable place to stay here"
Fenwirdle says: "It is, we are very lucky to be able to use this house."
Fenwirdle smiles warmly "Now please take a seat so we can start." Fenwirdle points towards the table.
Fenwirdle grins "We have much to discuss, but I say we start with some warm wine. That always puts me in the right mood for business" and then turns around to Diunti "Would you like to pour us some wine Miss Berinat ?"
Diunti comes back with a warmed bottle of wine and pours some into the gobblets.
Rastalh says: "ah, thank you miss Berinat." Fenwirdle leans over to reach for the gobblet "Thank you miss Berinat."
Fenwirdle says: Where would you like to start Mr. Rhupial?
Rastalh says: "I brought some samples of the wares i could deliver, but let us raise a drink first."
Diunti nods and then steps back from the table and over to her desk. Fenwirdle raises his goblet "Cheers to good business"
Fenwirdle takes a small sip of the wine.
Fenwirdle rubs his hands together "Now let us see what you brought for us. Let us inspect one item at a time, then you can tell us of its qualities.
And even better if you can tell its tale. You see, I have many collectors as customers, who values stories highly."
Rastalh nods and starts displaying the wares. Fenwirdle smiles and nods at Rastalh "I have done many a good business deal with dwarves"
...
Fenwirdle looks over to Diunti "Will you please help me inspect the items miss Berinat?"
Diunti looks in the crate and nodds as she looks at te items inside. "Yes Mr. Hambaro."
Rastalh says: "These swords we have been taken from some thieves around the city of Ojaveda. We were guarding a caravan an some thieves tried to rob us."
Fenwirdle chukkles "So you robbed them instead."
Rastalh says: "Well we took a big loss on our caravan, that needed to be replaced."
Fenwirdle ponders a bit "These are not the most special items, but there is a market for everything if you know how to make it"
Fenwirdle takes a closer look at one of the daggers. "Hmm this dagger here seems intresting"
Rastalh says: We found that dagger in one of their camps
Fenwirdle smiles "Ah, I see. Do you know anything about its origins?""
Rastalh says: "At closer inspection it seems very well crafted."
Fenwirdle nods "Indeed it does" and hands over the dagger for Diunti to see. Diunti takes the dagger offered by Fenrirdle and examins it carefully.
Rastalh says: "It could be made by Trasok i think, but he does not recognise it." Diunti makes notes in her book as Fenwridle and Rastalh talk.
...
Rastalh opens the chest to show some specials
Fenwirdle's eyes widen as he looks in to the chest "Ah! Now we are talking"
Diunti looks over the items in the chest and makes some notes in her book.
Fenwirdle says: " There is absolutely a market for such fine weapons. Do you think we could set up a long term deal for swords like this mr Rhupial ? And please tell me more about."
...[While i did some more interesting business with mr Hambaro you can have a look at the screenshots of the previous event
' Old Friends '- the caravan to Dsar Akkaio]
...
Fenwirdle says: "Ah! Not bad. So tell me what qualities this amulet has"
Rastalh says: "It has a positive effect on how others perceive you"
Fenwirdle smiles warmly "I know a few who could need one of those"
Diunti and Rastalh laugh at Fenwirdle's comment.
...
Fenwirdle takes a large sip of his wine "Do not forget to drink every now and then. The wine gets cold you know"
Diunti looks to Fenwirdle " Would you like me to freshen up your wine Mr. Hambaro?"
Rastalh lifts the gobblet to his mouth, some wine dripping in his already red beard.
Fenwirdle smiles at Diunti "You know I would like"
...
Fenwirdle grins "Very well. We can make a deal but mind you it will take time and great effort"
Fenwirdle says: "Here is what i propose. You keep a steady supply of goods. I am sure we all will profit from this deal."
Diunti finishes writing, then flips her notebook closed.
Fenwirdle says: "It has been a pleasure doing business with you Mr. Rhupial and I look foreward to out next meeting."
Fenwirdle looks over at Diunti "Can you make a receipt for Mr. Rhupial"
Diunti writes out a receipt listing the goods recieved and hands it to Rastalh " Here you go Mr. Rhupial."
Diunti takes the swords out of the chest and moves to put them in a nearby crate.
Rastalh whispers "You have a good assistant with her"
Fenwirdle nods "Yes, miss Berinat is invaluable to me."
Diunti finishes putting the swords into the crate.
Fenwirdle smiles at Rastalh and holds out his hand for a handshake
Rastalh reaches his hands to Mr. Hambaro and makes a bow to miss Berinat. Diunti returns the bow to Rastalh.
Rastalh says: "Thanks for the business mr Hambaro. I hope you can do well with it on the markets"
Fenwirdle says: "I am sure I will."
Diunti smiles at Fenwirdle's comment and says: "When you are ready Mr. Rhupial I can escourt you out"
Rastalh puts his helm back on his head and salutes Fenwirdle Hambaro with respect.
Fenwirdle waves with a warm smile on his face "Until next time"
Diunti says: "Until our next meeting Mr. Rhupial."[ Doing business with mr Hambaro has been great fun, and he seems to be a wise merchant too indeed.
In bigger events i get a bit lost in the chat sometimes, so it was nice to meet mr Hambaro and his assistant miss Berinat in their vacant house in the Winch.
The way
'Business opportunities with Mr. Hambaro ' is set up gives good opportunities to prepare yourself a bit and have a serious thought how to expand your roleplay. I felt very welcome with Mr. Hambaro and Miss Berinat, they were really patient and we did not need to go out of character. And we did nice business there behind the screenshots too. Also the caravan to Dsar Akkaio had a good flow in it. Hope to meet Fenwirdle and Diunti again some day soon. In the meanwhile i prepare business
