The word "Waukeen" triggered a flood of memories in the woman's mind.
Waukeen? Of course, the Merchant's Friend!
[sblock=Knowledge of Waukeen]Waukeen is a lesser deity known as the Merchant's Friend, Liberty's Maiden, and the Golden Lady. Her portfolio includes everything related to commerce and the accumulation of wealth through free and fair trade, as well as the beneficial use of wealth to improve civilization. Those that venerate and appease her include merchants from lowly peddlers to the wealthy owners of trading companies, investors, accountants, entrepreneurs, caravan guides, warehouse owners, philanthropists, deal-makers, moneylenders, and so on. Waukeen is also the goddess of illicit trade and the patron of many smugglers, fences, black marketeers, and "businessmen" on the shady side of commerce. Collectively, her worshipers are known as Waukeenar.
Waukeen recently returned to power after being imprisoned by an Abyssal Lord for nearly a dozen years and her Church is still recovering.[/sblock]
Coinmaster Cooper remained calm, clearly sympathetic to the woman's plight. He brushed stray blond hair out of his eyes before speaking,
"Stand or sit, whichever is your preference. You aren't being held here so much as being treated. You've been recovering here after Greycastle brought you in two nights ago. Considering the wounds you had when you came in, I was a bit surprised that you survived, but your resilience and the blessings of Waukeen carried you through the ordeal. Someone clearly wanted you dead. As best as Greycastle could tell, he figured bandits, as you had been stripped of your belongings. Did you catch sight of your assailants? If bandits, the cowards likely attacked from hiding. Bastards, that lot, interrupting trade the way they do."
