"Good morning sir, welcome to Rhodes. I am Abe Rhodes." He extends a hand. Upon talking with Michael for a while he laments that he will be unable to provide a suitable apprentice. "Ours is a family operation--myself, my son and two grandsons." Indeed the old man's progeny can be seen beyond a curtain laboring on a couple of suits. "I do employee a couple of local women to do some basic cutting and seaming as well as repairs when we are very busy, but they are neither skilled nor fast enough to complete such an extensive commission as yours." He looks up with a smile. "I could do up some wonderful clothes for a finely built man such as yourself." He gestures to a couple of well dressed manikins about the shop. In particular he draws your attention to a very nice tasteful Captain's uniform. "I could do something very flattering in your chosen colors of Black and Silver."The Sailors' Friend is equally disappointing. A human there oversees a large group of local workers, and while they would be happy to take on the commission to complete uniforms for the crew, he becomes very frosty at the notion of letting any of his people go to sea. The work in his shop tends to very plain uniforms and overly embroidered get-ups for sailors with more money than taste to wear on shore leave. He has better luck on boots. Finneous Berteljar proves to be an able Gnomish craftsman. He has several local apprentices including one toadman, Mel'Botha who is ready to become a journeyman. He would be happy to sign the lad on for a term of 3 months or even longer to make boots or shoes. The question is does Michael have enough shoe wearing crew to justify a full time boot-maker? Will the Lizard and Toad Folk need footwear in the colder northern clime?</blockquote>
