Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "It hurts like crap and... that's about it, really."

"Well, it's certain to be a portent of something. But it's likely impossible to guess what of until it happens." He shrugged. "We're nearly at the sword shop. Best to worry about one thing at a time." Edited August 30, 2021 by xinoehp512

Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "Yeah but that was... tomorrow. Remember? We went back in time."

Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) "Oh. Huh." I blink. "Well! Okay then. Let's go get the scabbard." Edited August 30, 2021 by Channelknight Fadran
Condensation she/her Posted August 30, 2021 Author Posted August 30, 2021 "Sounds like a plan!" Melody started fast-walking.
Mystic Syn she/her Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 “Well, we’re here.” Q folded her arms.
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) I knock on the stall. "Hello?" Edited August 30, 2021 by Channelknight Fadran
xinoehp512 he/him Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 The shopkeeper walked up. "Ah yes! The lady with the valuable sword, and her friend." He glanced curiously at Gerald but did not say anything. "You are right on time; I have just finished crafting your scabbard."
xinoehp512 he/him Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "Two hundred," said the merchant promptly.
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "Gotcha. Uhm..." I finger the amulet, then mutter, "two hundred..." I hand the merchant his money. "Here ya go."

I hand the merchant his money. "Here ya go." The merchant looks surprised at first, then suspicious. "These aren't counterfeit bills, are they?" he challenged. Edited August 30, 2021 by xinoehp512
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "Couldn't tell you, really. I sure hope they're not." I look over at them. "What, is there something off about them?"
xinoehp512 he/him Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 5 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said: "Couldn't tell you, really. I sure hope they're not." I look over at them. "What, is there something off about them?" "Yeah," said the trader, his suspicion lessening slightly but not vanishing completely. "The watermark is all off. They look they were churned out by a printer- and not a terribly good one, either. Where did you get them?" Gerald tapped Ellis on the shoulder urgently.
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "My pocket? I dunno." I shrugged. "If you don't like them I can take them back. You'll have to hold that scabbard order, though, 'cause that's all the cash I took with me."
xinoehp512 he/him Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 The merchant's brow furrowed. Gerald hurriedly slapped a chunk of gold on the counter. "I knew that exchanger was shady," he interjected. "No respectable trader would hide behind such a bad fake mustache! Too bad he ran off with our money before we could have it checked! Oh well, there's little hope we'll be able to catch him now!" The merchant's eyes widened when he saw the gold. He fingered it and gave it a sniff. Satisfied, he handed the scabbard over. "Just terrible, these counterfeiters," he said, not breaking eye contact with Gerald. "Conning honest people for their own personal profit. Just terrible."
Channelknight Fadran Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 I grin at the merchant sheepishly. "Yeah, sorry..."

"What do you have to apologize for?" said the merchant mildly, turning back to his shop. "Idiocy isn't a crime... and you were very generous with your gold." "Thanks for the scabbard," said Gerald, tugging Ellis away from the stand. "We'll be sure to recommend you to all our sword-wielding friends! Er, so that they can buy from you. Not... yeah." Edited August 30, 2021 by xinoehp512
xinoehp512 he/him Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 "You used the amulet," said Gerald as the party made an expeditious retreat. It wasn't a question.
