If Kalana could do a spit take, she would. "It is tempting," she admkts. "If I had my full amount of money, then, I would buy it. Unfortunately, I don't."

Rackit removes his hat and scratches his head a bit, before replacing the hat. "I see, I see...well, I'm sure we can make some kind of deal. I mean, assuming...that you do have money, right?" He chuckles, a bit nervously.

"That's quite a collection of magic weapons you have there, good sir," Imrich intervenes. "I've never seen so many for sale in one place before, and at such reasonable rates, as well. May I ask how you came across such a large collection?"

"Ah, well, you know...wheelin' and dealin'," Rakit says a bit evasively. "My papa always said, keep an eye open for new opportunities. I do a lot of trading on all nine islands, and the seas in between, and after awhile, you can make some pretty good deals. What about you folks? Don't look like merchants, or Coral Fleet or slavers. Looks like your ship has seen some battle, though."

"I do have money, just not in me at the moment," Kalana admits. "But while I might not be able to buy anything at the moment, have you by any chance came across the Ti'aru?"

"Sorry, what? Tiaru? Never heard of it," Rakit admits. "Sounds delicious, like a Calabrian dessert or something."

Senllip is so overwhelmed by the riches in the chest that it seems he lost all ability of speech. "Wow! Can we test them? Can anyone operate the wands? You have peculiar assistants. Are you partners? Have you found them with the treasure? Do you have spellbooks? Maybe a nice helmet?" it takes some time but eventually Senllip becomes a little bit suspicious, walks near Imrich and whispers, "Maybe he is a kobold too. In disguise."

"Wow! Can we test them? Can anyone operate the wands? You have peculiar assistants. Are you partners? Have you found them with the treasure? Do you have spellbooks? Maybe a nice helmet?" Rakit tries to keep up with the barrage of questions from the halfling. "Test them? Only if you intend to actually buy something--seems everyone on this ship is broke. And if you break anything, you buy it," he warns. "I think it depends on the wand. I'm no expert, since as a dwarf, they are of little use to me. My kobolds? They are cheap and they are loyal, and that's good enough for me. No spellbooks, no. Well, I have a helm of telepathy here. Lets you read people's minds when wearing it. Only 3,500 gold pieces."

Jaeron sighs "Not entirely broke but certainly we are not rich beyond our wildest dreams good sir. We had to spend a lot of money on repairs and a crew. This ship saw rough times at sea against some Sahuagin. Or some such sea dwelling creatures."

"Then you must be a most successful merchant, master Rackit. To have acquired so many magical treasures that you are able to sell them at such competitive prices," Imrich smirks. "I would have thought the magician's guilds might have had a stern word or two to say about you undercutting their prices."

"Sahuagin, huh? Nasty business, that," Rakit says. "But if you have no coin, then I guess this was all a big waste of everybody's time." He gestures for the kobolds to pack up and return to his ship.
To Imrich, he says, "Yeah, the guilds aren't a big fan of independent merchants like myself. But it's because I'm independent I can offer such great prices. No middle men, no guild fees, no guild taxes. The savings are passed directly to you, the consumer."

"It a Blue Lightning ship," she explains. "But I suppose it is no matter. I apologize for wasting so much of your time. If there is a next time, I do hope to buy something."

Jaeron "Sorry for wasting your time, but it was nice meeting you. Unfortunately unless you have something in the tens of gold pieces we are probably unable to partake of your wares."

"Tens of gold? Are you serious? Even I can't sell magical items at that price," Goldmeasure says. "But I do have a few healing potions on hand, for 40 gold each, if you are interested in that."

"Jaeron, it is best to let him go find business that is more profitable than us at the moment," Kalana says gently. She knows that Jaeron probably feels bad for not buying anything, but that is simply the way things are at the moment. "Things will change later on, and perhaps we will run into this man again so that we can actually buy some of his wares."
