[QUOTE="talien, post: 3133973, member: 3285"] [b]The Senator's Seal - Part 2: The Fabric Merchant[/b] As they made their way through the marketplace the next morning, they found the fabric merchant assisting a middle-aged woman looking at some cotton cloth. Taking the bolt of cloth over to a table, Aljandros noticed Dril. He nodded, acknowledging his presence. Then he measured several yards of cloth and handed it to the slave-woman. She passed him a few coins in return. He put the bolt back in its proper place before approaching. "You are looking for a rug, yes?" Aljandros said, sidling up to Dril. "I give you good rug. My rugs are very nice." Dril frowned at Aljandros, who looked a bit like an overeager puppy. "I am not interested in rugs, merchant. I’m looking for a seal." “Seal? I do not know of such things.” Undeterred, the merchant tried Ilmarė next. "A rug for the pretty lady?" The Elorii stared the merchant down. "What would I do with a rug?" she said after he backed away. "What a question! A rug will keep you warm. It will keep you soft. I give you good rug." “Has anyone been by who smells like cattle?” asked Vlad. “I am not sure,” said Aljandros. The merchant rolled out a variety of furry-looking rugs. "Touch, see? Feel the softness." Dril sighed. “Fine. I will buy a rug, merchant, and I expect it delivered quickly.” "Oh yes, yes!" Aljandros said excitedly. "I give you great rug. It keep you warm at night!" He began rifling through a pile of furs and cloth. "Stop encouraging him," said Ilmarė. "You'll have us all buying rugs by the time he's done." “So about that person who smelled like cattle…” “Oh yes, yes!” said Aljandros, stroking his beard. “There was a man, a landowner. He lives outside city. Purchased some silk for his wife.” “Do you know him?” asked Vlad. Aljandros shook his head. “I have never seen him before in my life. Why are you seeking him?” “It’s nothing for you to worry about,” said Dril. “Don’t forget to deliver that rug to this address.” He slipped the fabric merchant a piece of parchment along with some Imperials. They turned and walked away, unaware of the worry that flashed across the normally jovial merchant’s face. [/QUOTE]
