Timestamp Winter 2, 510 AV, Noon The Great Bazaar |
Gereth always loved the season change to winter for a very simple reason. Master used to love this game as well and thought of a way to earn a few mizas while he was at it. Gereth walked deep within the castle, waiting just until he was just within the Bazaar where the traders and merchants artisans, and craftsmen were all shouting here and there selling their wares. There was money in the air. A few small dried objects sat bound on a strip of near worthless cloth, cut from his own cloak. in the muted light of the bazaar it seemed slightly mysterious but really Gereth’s intentions were seldom good. As the weather changed moisture patterns in the castle changed as well which forced things to move. Small squeaking things. Gereth of course had kept some of the rats for himself (waste not want not) but the ones he didn’t dry to eat he had severed the feet from to create a crude but passable looking false charm. “Luck with life, money, and love!” He called out in a clear voice. At the Rearing Stallion it was those three things humans wanted luck with the most. Here in the bustle of the market his voice was one of many... ensuring those who really needed the luck would hear. He stifled a chuckle as he called out again, pulling his cloak down so only the flash of yellow in his eyes would be visible, ever the mysterious salesman of magic. “With Olinhar’s charm you can make your own fate. Imported from distant lands, this talisman has within it the power to actualize your potential!” His shoulder shook with silent laughter again. He loved the winter. |
