[QUOTE="Rae ArdGaoth, post: 3507075, member: 21064"] Edwyd smiles joyously as Rathan returns his coin. [COLOR=SandyBrown]"Why... I'm touched. No, I really am.

And come to Ed's for food any time, breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Thanks again, boys. This'll go to the kids, ye can be sure!"[/color] Edwyd holds up the shiny platinum and winks.
