Erinestra!

So how good are your axes? And what do they cost? The axe is my regimental weapon and I've been practising like crazy but the one I've been issued by the quartermaster (who I've come to suspect is an enemy of the regiment, and possibly even a traitor to Sartar itself) is more ploughshare than paragon.

Can you supply a chopper more worthy of a champion?

We have an axe for evey occasion! I'd personally make a guarantee that if an axe let's you down I'll pay for your wake, and as we've seen with Eodal and Malvolio those affairs are not cheap. But let's be realistic, with one of our axes your enemies will be laid out before you like fallen trees and you will barely need the attention of the Chalana Arroy healers.

Greetings Erinestra,

I do not have need for an axe at present, but I could use some shagreen leather for the hilt of my broadsword. Assuming that you stock such I will be happy to visit your establishment.

Fair Erinestra,

I shall continue to frequent your shop and buy my merchandise directly from you, I've always been impressed with the quality and reasonable prices.

There is, however, a small matter of concern that I feel I need raise with you....namely that of your cliental base. You see, 'Erinestra's Axe Emporium' has a growing reputation as an establishment that is really going places, new stock, varied items, decent quality and respectable customers, none of your riff-raff, a premises where the shopper may peruse in comfort, untroubled by the great unwashed.....that has always been the word around the City...until now!!

Terrible whispers are starting to spread that this is all about to change BECAUSE those ghastly Colymar types have cottoned onto the fact your store is so good and now they want in on it, a chance to buy decent weapons and gear of far superior make and reliability than the cheap, shoddy rubbish that their own storekeepers flog to the hapless fools.

May I make a most sensible suggestion, you ban all of them - these Colymars - and I will increase my monthly spend to compensate for the few lunars they could afford to throw in, they're paupers anyway so you wouldn't get much off of them apart from complaining about the prices and could you knock a few lunars off as they've a grandma, 2 in-bred cousins and family of mangey goats to support. In particular I hear that Erik Starkraving has been asking about something for his sword....I had to laugh there....he's due to die in a duel shortly so I wouldn't worry to much about taking any of his very short term trade.

Let's discuss this more at my requiem drinks bash for Malvolio this coming month, the one that Erik isn't invited too!

Noble Broar, you raise a very difficult issue for me. Obviously there exist many tribal animosities and according to the lore of Issaries we try not to take sides. Besides our Prince Argrath himself has encouraged us all to get along to defeat the common Chaotic <FX:hawks and spits> Lunar foe. At this juncture I'd rather comply with the Prince's laws, but rest assured if anyone starts breaking the laws or my shop they will find themselves more than just banned!
