"He's clearly speaking to me," Olaf murmurs sotto voce, "As I'm most obviously a gentleman....
"Good day, my friend!" he booms as he steps forward. "My companions and I are here to speak to Master Caldwell, regarding his problematic castle. Are you the gentleman in question?"
With an eye roll, Jonas leans forward onto the desk, looking up at the man. "Yes, by all means, sir, we believe we may be able to assist with this... Problem we've heard of."
In an instant the expression of the man behind the counter changes, assuming a more relaxed posture he leans forward and addresses you in less cultured tones "Correct you are gents, you have the pleasure of addressing Clifton Caldwell." he says smiling warmly at you all "How about we retire out back, then we can discuss our business without the nob's getting in a tizz"
Clifton picks up a small bell and rings it, moments later a young smartly dressed man in his early twenties emerges from a back room, and with a nod takes up manning the counter.
You follow Clifton into the bowels of his shop, passing storage rooms and an office and into to what appears to be a well sized library. Despite it's small shop frontage the rest of the building appears to be quite large and seems to act as both home and business for Clifton and his family.
Excusing himself while he goes off and gets refreshments Clifton leaves you alone in his library before returning with a trolley cart which contains a large pot of hot water, cups and very various leaves for making tea, as well as a plate of freshly baked cheese scones.
After making sure you're all settled in and have been served your refreshments Clifton gets down to business.
"Recently I purchased a small castle a few miles west of Threshold. When I went to investigate my new home, I was a bit put out, to say the least, to discover that it had been overrun by monsters and who know what else. And that is why I require your services."
"I'm willing to pay you 100 crowns each to clear out my castle so that my family and I may move into our new home."
Clifton then sits back with a neutral expression on his face clearly waiting to see how you respond to his offer.
