Taking the guards advice Yoko led the group to this dandy pawn shop. Seemed like the best place to get this type of information. Its just good luck that this is also the location of the black market, Yoko didn't know that tho.
"Soooo i have a strange question. One that i would have never thought before i would ask. But anyways, there was a black market dealer named Drone murdered out at the docks a while ago. Im trying to track down and detain the murder. But i need to find out what this particular seller was selling and why Star wanted him dead. Is there any way you can point me in the right direction if you know anything about the black market?" Yoko innocently asked
Christov walked up beside the Ogofta "Our only interest is aprehending the murderer of the thief named Drone, and this information will help in that investigation. he said, not wanting to scare this person off if they did have contacts within the theives guild.
Lunmer - "It's a very rare, highly magical material. Makes enchantments stronger, sometimes in strange ways. As for killing for it, that's certainly happened before. I happen to know it didn't in this case; they found the boy with his full stock on him."
"So it has to be for some other reason. Maybe it made a enchantment gone wrong... Killed out of vengeance. Also, does the name Ferris ring any bells?" Yoko asked
Lunmer - "Star? It's possible; I seem to recall a nadrask with a name like that may have bought from Drone once or twice. Can't say Ferris means anything to me though."
"Thank you very much kind shop keep! I will tell my buddies at the halls of justice to all shop here! Maybe get you some more business." Yoko said and started for the door
**Talasia entered with two iron swords, two baseball bats, and 75 gold worth of assorted pawnable junk.
Say basebat balls are basically wood cudgels, so thats 30 gold, plus 51 gold for the swords, so 81 golds worth of weapons. Pawning gets you 75% so 60. Talasia leaves with 135 gold.**
