With a smile and a nod, she stepped into the gap Melanoce offered."I realize there's a lot to be done, but that only underscores the importance of prioritizing," Sigil said gently. "Though I am flattered you've spent this much time and effort considering what you can offer. Lets start with the most important part...which is namely, developing what Kaydia can offer to offworlders. My predecessor paid for offworld favors by selling slaves. That is something I cannot, and will not abide." Her voice took on a passionate tone on those words. "So my first priority is making sure that Kaydia can pay for whatever services it needs. Modifications to education and institutions...those may have to wait. What I'd like to focus on is finding and developing goods and services that have offworld markets. Once we have established a solid base, then we can look at further fine tunings.""You mentioned tourism, and that's something I'd like to follow up on. Not just in terms of a world unspoiled by industry...but a world rich in magical tradition, and with a large native fey population. I believe it might be possible to employ the fey in a spectacular entertainment industry, fueled by their natural tendencies towards performance, illusions and glamour, and of course, their love of showmanship and festivity. Not to mention their considerable physical charms." She smiles."There's also, I feel, some possibility of developing an industry for magical items...though I'd need to consult with my Autarchs to see how they felt about that. What I'd like to do eventually is organize the human mages, and provide incentives for them to produce relatively easy to create magical devices and items for offworld trade. One question I have there is how common magic industry is in general. My early researches show 'technology' being far more common. If so, perhaps markets for magic could be developed that Kaydia could supply?"</blockquote>
