Okigawa shakes his head sadly and sighs a looooong saaaaad sigh, "You are starving my family sir. I came prepared to be able to pay no more then 1.2jade penny per Prince's penny. Siiiiiigh" he fingers a gold piece slowly. sadly. forlornly.

Stex notes with some obvious admiration Anessen's Dwarven Warhammer. "That's quite a Goblin Knocker yer've got there, Anessen! I fancy that I can see a few fragments of orc skull clinging to the flanges on the head of the thing. But why be ye also needin' that Curve Blade? That's too Elfy a weapon for the likes of a Hammer-Man, isn't it? Ye see that I have me Urgosh and me Waraxe, true, but them is but two variations on the same theme."

Alas sir the rate is 1.5 and you are saving the princes taxes..and i am sure you will make your fortune in the city..the young banker replies

A table is quickly set up with chairs that are comfortable for all the various sizes. Once set up the table is brought a large bowl of baked sweet potatoes, a large bowl of baked potatoes, a platter of corn and several bowels of vairious salad greens and dessing as well as an assortment of chesses and best of all warm baked bread with honey and butter.

A quick glance at the wall shows that every who sits at the table will commit to spending 2 silver penny for the food in addition to the cost of their drinks.

The young man responds, "Thank you. I do need to clean up after the hard ride." With a short bow, the man takes his things to his room. After arranging things, he ventures forth to the bath on his floor, taking only his valuables and necessities in his backpack, leaving the saddle, saddle bags, crossbow, and quiver in his room.

Finishing up his bath, the young man ventures out looking for moneychangers and food.

"I don't know about the rest of you, but I am famished!" says Stex as he plops himself down at the table in a dwarf-sized chair and sets to the repast with Dwarvish Gusto.

"The exchange rate for the land of jade is 1.35 to the city silver penny" he says..

"1.35. That is an awful steep exchange rate for a land so peaceful and prosperous, surely 1.1 jade pennies

" I do understand sir but we stay very close to the rates set by the city treasurey on all known coin...as a new cusomter though I will as a one time courstey go to 1.25." you can tell by his inflection that this is the best your likely to get.

pay no more then 1.2jade penny per Prince's penny. y.

Alas sir the rate is 1.5 and you are saving the princes taxes..and i am sure you will make your fortune in the city..the young banker replies

OOC: sorry, but I missed the green words. 1.25 it is

okigawa counts numbers in his head as he does calculations.

' So for a minimum of 200 deposite, i would need to exchange, uh, Hrm. How about this, 50 gold crowns would be equal to 500 silver pennies of the land of Jade, or 400 silver pennies in the prince's coin. to echange 500 there is a charge of 25 pennies giving a total of 375 pennies with 250 in an account and 125 for me to spend here in the city, right?"

Done th young banker says

Lou.
Finding food and a bank is easy. As you near the main square the smell of roastmeat fills the air.

Espejo waits impatintly while his new acquaintance completes his transaction. Once he is sure he is finished he says "Come on. I wouldn't be surprised if the dwarves don't eat all the food before we get there."

 

[Scott DeWar]

Espejo's comment to hurry the large young man is rewarded with a loud grrrooowwwwlll from an empty stomach! "Yes, let us hurry!" Hustle to restaurant

 

[ghostcat]

Espejo rapidly accompanies Okigawa to the restaurant where his new companions are eating. Sitting in the nearest free seat, he is pleased to see that there is still plenty of food left despite the dwarves' best efforts.

When Espejo's drink arrives he holds it in his left hand while continuing to eat with his right.
