The cost of the stay is 480 stein. The first night's lodging is apparently free to all traders.There are apparently several established communities about the large lake in long standing trade with the Maldrog. The city exports tin, iron, and specific tools and utensils. Though their manufacture of armor and weapons is exceptional, they will not trade them in bulk. They will, however, sell them on an individual basis.One of the trade barges imports skins, corn, and game from a Rheini community across the lake. That crew speaks some Rheini and it becomes a basis for initial communication between the Seekers and the Maldrog, though all are very limited in its use.The Seekers learn of the developed communities around the lake. The nearest is a monastic-like community of Mhytres of the Orngaddrin tribe who trade precious metals and various crystals for iron. The Rheini who trade skins, game, and corn for tools. Further across the lake is a community of Aedaman of the Hebrian tribe who trade game, fabric, and tobacco for tools. There is also another community of Mhytres of the Suddanig tribe. Trade between them and the Maldrog is fully mutual.One disappointing fact is that the Maldrog will not allow anyone outside of their community to be involved in any of their combat training. They are not aggressive or hostile about it. They do not even seem to mind observers, but they are opposed to outside participation.[/gm][gm]At the end of the week, the Maldrog that the Seekers had met before and directed toward Southroad Fair, meets with everyone and expresses a desire to establish a trade basis with the community. He is offering tools, including axes and arrowheads, which are considered more tool and less weapon. He is expressly interested in the fuel oil he bought before.He introduces himself as Weit. He and his crew seem desirous of leaving soon, hopefully within the next day.[/gm]</blockquote>
