"Yeh, that could maybe do, but I'm tired of this sword and everything... You see my papa owned a leatherworking business before he died.. I was thinking I could set up shop, do some trading to Holtburg if things get going. You suppose that could work?" Ashakel takes a sip of his drink.

- Also, Awareness check on their clothes and outfits, how worn are they, and can I tell where they are working at. +8

Ashakel:
These people are clearly miners. You can literally smell the metallic dust on them, as well as dirt, even though they are wearing regular clothing and have bathed recently.
"Hah! Well," the Dwarves look at each other, bemused, "Good lucksh on ya shon. You'll needsh it."

"The boss?" Ashakel noticeably lowers his voice, although the drinking is starting to get to him. "Listen boys, you sheem like a decen' lot, and I'd just want to settle a bit.*hic*..If I have to put a coin here or there, ya' know, to get started, I wouldn't mind. Just tell me who I be needin' to talking to."

One of the other Dwarves, not the merry fellow you've been talking with, gives you an empty smile. "Not a worry, friend. You go set up your business, no issues here. Now if you'll excuse us." He grabs the inebriated Dwarf and the group departs the inn.

"Alrighty, then, cheers to ya lads!" After they depart, Ashakel meets up with the others. "Wellish... I've been having some luck. I met a couple of dwarves in the inn. They seem to be talkin' about "prefering things this way" and "not like they were paid better before." When I started saying I'd want to open a business, one of them went ahead of the others and said I'd need to answer to the Boss. I couldn't get much out of them after that, tho'. They were miners, also."

"Well I can't really tell ya but the Inn was in that way." Ashakel points to the way of the inn and describes the miners to Zeiss.

Zeiss goes in direction where Ashakel last saw the dwarfs and searches for them.

You manage to make it back with no issue but do not see any Dwarves anywhere nearby that match the description given.

Re: February 16th: Ritholme, Mining & Lumber
Zeiss goes back to the group and after making sure that nobody can hear them, he says :
"I could not find them... Maybe it's time that we find out where the shipments are going. The mines and the logging hasn't stopped. This town is shipping its resources elsewhere."
He thinks for a moment.
"So what about we go see the mayor now?"

"Ayup, that sounds fine to me. Actually, come to think of it..." Snarg scratches his ear in a thoughtful manner.
- Spoiler:
- K: P +9, is there anything noteworthy I'd know about this town and its government? Perhaps some hearsay about the mayor that we're going to see?

Snarg:
All you know about Ritholme is of a historical nature; it was once the leading supplier of fine lumber for the construction of Sailing vessels, before metal-plated Magitek and Airship vessels became more popular. While still being a prime source of such lumber, its already past its golden years.

"...eh, never mind, thought I remembered something. Why spin some story? That didn't go well last time you pretended to be someone. You've actually got real interest in trading with them, so go with that."

Re: February 16th: Ritholme, Mining & Lumber
"Snarg is right. We shouldsay we are from an organization that simply wants to trade with Ritholme and take the place of whatever buyer that is taking all the resources. After all, we have the approval of the government of Holtburg. Trading with us is surely more secure than whoever is in control here."

"And they can tell us the same thing if we say we haven't got a shipment of wood we were supposed to receive. And I doubt they won't see that this shipment doesn't exist. It would be silly to make a mistake like that when they obviously want their arrangement to not attract attention."

"You should take Sethos and Ashakel with you. You don't have to scare anybody, but you need numbers to keep them from trying to push you around, and having a healer is just common sense. While you do that, Fierneceal, Caladrius and Zeiss will head the group to see the mayor. Anybody who's left behind will need something to do while they wait."

"Is it actually a crime to not trade with someone? You can't force someone to trade. It could just be as simple as they have a better deal. You just need to make a better one if you want them to come back around. At least, that's the way I normally do it."

"I am fine with going to talk to the mayor..."
To Snarg's comment, Zeiss says :
"I agree. Let's try to keep things civilized."There is an undertone of sarcasm to his last word."We are here only to talk business."

"I wasn't suggesting that you make them an offer they can't refuse. Just discourage them from attacking or doing anything shady."
