//ok i'll stop with the begging... just charisma isn't my thing - i like to think i know what say, but the delivery can be mechanical, and too wordy - not so oddly Ink and I are alike in that... lol //
"Hrm...yep! That'll do!" He says, pocketing the treasure. "Right'o, I'd best be getting to smithing. Y'know Flint, if you'd like to help, I'll knock off some more of the final price. Labor for discount—what d'ye say?"
"Ah'll stay on long as ah'm able. Ah've got somethin' unpleasant yet ta do later. Oy Marav, let'em know ta fin'me 'ere 'f they wanna go after that wizard today."
"NARZ!! that's what your name was! couldn't remember it for a second there, was really bugging me! Sorry about the clerk boy bit, telling someone's age by their knees is hard for us little folk."
Marav gets directions to the apothecary then heads out.
Across the road from Northshield House (T10) is the town apothecary, a slouched wooden cottage with ivy-covered walls.
Parked outside the apothecary’s front door is a ramshackle wheelbarrow, hanging above which is a wooden sign shaped like a potion bottle.
As you enter, the strong smell of lavender and other natural perfumes fills your nose and nearly overwhelms your senses.
Greeting you eagerly at the door, the proprietor says, "Tarmock Felaskur, at your service! What kind of herbal remedy are you looking for? Some fireroot oil for aching joints? Salve of Gwaeron for open sores? Made locally! Or perhaps you'd like to try my famous fizzy 'sweet water' for refreshment? Just 1 gold piece a flask."

The clerk relaxes. "Thanks for explaining...I feel very protective of Alaestra, and I know that you came a long way to deliver this news," he says quietly as Alaestra excuses herself back to the storeroom.
"I can help you out. I would imagine such a long journey would be hard on your provisions! What are you looking for?"
Nothing much is on display here; a Lionshield Coster is a classy place, unlike the more plebian markets. Aside from some sweetrolls in a box and some healing potions on a rack, everything is right behind the counter or in the storeroom.
// You can let the clerk know what you want—anything from the standard equipment table is reasonable to assume that they either have or can get, and of course you're free to ask about anything else that you might be looking for. //
"NARZ!! that's what your name was! couldn't remember it for a second there, was really bugging me! Sorry about the clerk boy bit, telling someone's age by their knees is hard for us little folk."
"It's quite alright...sometimes I wonder if I made the right career move, you know. Being an adventurer just seems so exciting! I read some of your book–are these stories really true?"
"Well the first chapter was just to get a feel for our heroes, but 'The Battles of Nightstone, a Rip Dangerfield tale!' is 80% fact! I had to alter some minor details like names and such to avoid potential legal ramifications you see. Remind me to talk to you about selling my book here later, would be in poor taste to bring such bad news then try and turn a profit. Adventuring is a dangerous business, I've been brought to deaths door four times in less then a day! Not to mention almost eaten by a black pudding, Angel here was knocked off a tower that was 1,000 feet in the air! It's best to adventure with a trusted and capable party! Now about those potions, what quality are they and what's the cost? There wouldn't be a place to enchant or magic-ify our weapons in town would there?"
"Thank you for understanding, Naraz. By any off chance... Do you have a Ruby of the War Mage that I could exchange you this ruby for? Outside of that, I could use a climber kit, perhaps some extra rope... We may be dealing with giants soon... And their furniture tends to be... tall. Healing potions are great but I doubt I could afford more than one. "
"Once we get our supplies and get everything, let's go and kill the wizard and get it over with." He hesitates, "I assume we are gonna try and talk to him first though, right?"
"Tarmock... nice to meet you. Looking for some potions that would help adventuring sorts. Healing potions and the like."
"Oh, you don't want any of that unnatural rubbish!" says the herbalist. "I have dandelion tonic to promote healing, and belladonna root extract ointment to ward off infections! I also have oakbark tea, a natural stimulant that also keeps your skin healthy! Just one tea in the morning and one at night, and you'll see the difference in a matter of weeks."

Angel, seeing the others asking for some items to purchase, will walk up and ask quietly while not looking in Narz's eyes
"Do, you have any painting supplies, traveling rations, and a component pouch?"
"Oh, I could use some ink, quills and some papers as well. Thanks for reminding me Angel!"

Marav turns and walks away without saying a word. Just shakes his head.
