Magnus shrugged, "I see no reason for it to be shameful." He turned back to Herschell, "So, have you interest in purchasing the set? Your sign does say you seek to purchase all sets."
"Because they didn't matter. Beyond existing on some forgotten island, they did nothing. No record of them exists, nor will it now that their island collapsed. So there is no shame for them to have lived and died in utter obscurity."
Herschell was a little overwhelmed by all the attention but focused on maintaining a professional attitude and appearance.
"I will offer 60 gold or equivalent in items for each of your set items, and 100 for the soul gem. Unfortunately I don't have enough gold right now to cover all that, so please take a look at my inventory and see if there's something you'd like in trade."
Except legion, I'm not sure what the deal is between quo and me so I think I don't know if I actually have it :/ Herschell has 321 gold right now and at this cost he can buy all 5 crabman items for 300 or the soul gem and 3 crabmans.
Epic World! Because seriously! It's the awesome!

As Magnus continued to wait for Herschel, a black jakari in a cloak entered and approached the bar and spoke to the bartender. "Greetings. I was hoping that I may be able to find some adventurer that does enchanting for less than the shops and that you might know of such an adventurer?"
Mirielle - "You could try the Last Chancer's Club up in Ash. There are some enchanters in their ranks; you might be able to work something out. Other than that, I'm not certain."
Olus crossed his arms. "As much as I would like to trade with you, I'm in the business of cash right now... But if you're still willing to pay it, the stone is yours for the 100 gold."
"Tell you what, Herschell. Since I like you let's make a deal. I'll take 321 for the set, then I will buy that Light/Force Hybrid Crystal for 100 gold. And I'll pay back that marker I owe you." He said with a smile.

Meanwhile, Kage just ordered a drink and waited for some new adventurers to enter to see if maybe he would have some better luck here before going all the way to Ash.
Bleu looked on as Magnus bartered with the man. She spoke up "I have some things I would like to sell you, but you appear to have no funds at the moment. I'll just pay back that 6 gold I owe you for the lottery. Thanks!"
Kage turns to the man, "Then I believe we can work something out. I need you to bond this crystal to this this sword." Kage visually present Kaia's soulgem and the B.O.S.S. sword. "What would it cost?"
Vivian began mixing up a few solutions in a portable cauldron, sprrinked powder over the crystal. After many sundry steps, not all of which Kage could follow a few muttered incantations finished the process.
Enhanced Soul Imbue: The soul of Kaia Alliel resides within the blade, controlling it herself like an enlightened animation. The blade She also gains the following ability (Kaia is still trying to think of a name for it.):
Kaia is Awesome..Call of..Ghost Nebula: Once per encounter the blade can darken further, becoming a lightness vortex that dispels and drains all spells in the area. Even magic items are weakened, but the items return to normal strength after the moment passes. The vortex effect ends as suddenly as it begins, concluding its work with a large burst of icy smoke. The smoke, a dark nebula of blacks, purples, and blues, quickly dissipates; leaving behind a semi-solid woman of hardened nebula. The freezing-skinned summon is under Kaia's control and self-maintains itself for a period dependent on the amount of magic absorbed. The smoke, in all forms, feels warm to Kage instead of cold if Kaia feels like it.
Edit: It was intended, but, to make things clear the summon has clothes. Smoke-clothes anyway.
"Thank you. This was superb work." He heads out of the bar and talks with Kaia as he walks around. "So, does your new form suit you? And how about the name 'Kaia's Revenge' for your ability?"
**Kage feels the blade fidgeting a bit as Kaia gets used to the animation.**
Kaia - "Kaia's revenge... I don't know.. maybe Kaia's Vengeance? Hmm.. yeah, that has a nice ring to it. Kaia's Vengence. So, where to now? I wont know how I feel about the new form until I try it out."
**Although the odd hand that handed her gold for the springtrap was rather ood, Misty and the soulstone Gradela don't have any problems making their way to the KoA. Then she sees him. Oh no. Has the syncing ended yet?! The half-fenette quickly takes a seat at the bar in hopes Olus that doesn't see her. She likes him and all, but its a bit too soon..
Misty tumbles an odd looking coin over her fingers to calm her nerves. Ah.. is she syncing with Gradela now...?**
Laghairt entered the King of Adventure followed by Gigan and the obsidian monitor.
Laghairt - I've heard that there is a man here that can do bonding enchantments for a slight discount off of what the forge in Elexia charges. Is he still available, I've got two jobs for him if he is.
**If Herschell accepts, Misty quickly walks back to the bar in hopes of avoiding Olus and returns to coin twirling. She'll check back up on Gradela after the talk.**
Gradela Ryach-Leen to Herschell - "Imbuing me into an item will allow me to control it in addition to granting it a greater strength. This makes me a valuable resource. The woman who brought me here will forgo any payment, so you can sell me for free on two conditions. First, half the proceeds of the sell will be used to construct a fund for the Ryach-Leen. I have heard we are all dead, but If I remain in this world I may not be alone. Second, whoever purchases me must agree to put the Ryach-Leen clan fund in their will; leaving no less than 1/4 their estate to the clan. I can go as low as 1/8th if we must, but if you can talk them into more than 1/4th of their inheritance the Ryach-Leen clan fund will pay you, Mr. Ratliff, 1/2 of the inheritance that exceeds the minimum 1/4th amount."
**Misty also left behind a book detailing Gradela's life along with a doll that appears to be of Gradela as she was when she embarked on her last adventure.**
Gradela's story is a simple one. She grew up in her tribe, showed promise, and was taught in the physical arts. As part of the brotherhood of wealth, she felt adventuring would be the ideal way to use her natural skills to further the tribe's goals. Along the way she learned she had a great talent for magic, voraciously consuming any new knowledge of the sort when she could find it but not to the extent that it interfered with her duty.She entered the trials knowing the dangers. Her group was not foolhardy, nor was it particularly dysfunctional. They simply walked too far down the wrong hallway based off a well-reasoned, yet ultimately wrong, interpretation of a riddle.
Herschell turns to Magnus. "Here's my counter offer. I'll buy your set for 320 Gold, then you can pay me the 6 you owe, and if you want to buy the Hybrid crystal it'll cost you 150 gold, same as everyone else. But for you, I'll change the crystals in it to whatever art you like!"
Then he addressed Olus. "If you're still interested, I'll buy your gem for 100 gold, and if that means I have to work out a new deal with this gentleman than so be it."
And then Herschell accepted Gradelas deal because hey, free item.
Epic World! Because seriously! It's the awesome!

After a moment of pondering, Magnus says "That deal is acceptable. The combo of amethyst and agate should do for my purposes. You are a good man Herschell." He smiled and, after Herschell changed the gem, he walked over to the bar where he had heard the enchanter speak to the shadowy jakari. "I would like for you to bond this crystal to this sai please. He had on a charming smile as he held his mage dagger and the crystal out.

Vivian- Did someone say they needed enchanting? If its a bonding enchantment I can sort you out.
Acelin's Characters (since her sig won't work).
Vivian- Basic imbue, sure thing. That'll be 60 gold.
