I was expecting someone taller.((Requires phase 2 of [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]])) >> -> (76) > (76) Gailris Rainn: Shush, dear...! Ahem, Lord Aercrest, Gailris Rainn at your disposal! Am I to understand that you might support us in our predicament with Baron Goldbridge? >> Perhaps, though the concerns of nobility often precede those of a merchant. -> (77) >> I'll promise to weigh your needs against the others, fairly. -> (77) > (77) Ellen Rainn: Is this about gold? How much? >> -> (78) > (78) Gailris Rainn: Ellen, shush I said! Apologies, my wife did not mean to imply that your lordship could be bought. She merely wished to point out that looking out for lowly merchants, such as us, can be highly beneficial to all parties involved. >> What's your dispute with Tyron Goldbridge about, exactly? -> (79) >> How fares business these days, Master Rainn? -> (82) >> Indeed, the Rainn family can count on my support. -> (83) >> I'll consider it. -> (0) > (79) Gailris Rainn: Not long ago I stocked a caravan full of the finest glassware and fruits from Melloria and set off for Thornhill. The glassmiths of Mellor create far higher quality glassware and most fruit doesn't provide a good yield in these northern lands, so I was feeling rather good about it. >> -> (80) > (82) Gailris Rainn: Apart from the misfortune in Thornhill, trade's been rather exceptional. In fact, I recently acquired lots of exquisite jewelry - certainly enough to share with those I consider friends... >> Tell me about your dispute with Tyron Goldbridge. -> (79) >> It's decided; the Rainn family can count on my support. -> (83) >> How fortunate, but I should still hear the others. -> (0) > (83) Gailris Rainn: Truly, my lord? We'd be in your debt. >> I'll talk to Tyron right away. Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 3. -> (0) >> Although, I'd still like to hear the others first. -> (0) > (80) Gailris Rainn: But upon arriving in Thornhill we're suddenly informed of a new tax on foreign goods. We'd never encountered anything of the like before and it's so outrageously high that barely anyone could afford to buy from us! >> What does the baron have against your trade? -> (81) >> How fares business otherwise? -> (82) >> Don't worry, the Rainn family can count on my support. -> (83) >> I see, but I still need to hear the others. -> (0) > (81) Gailris Rainn: Well, he owns Thornhill's glassblower, same as its farms. Competition would force him to lower his prices, which puts less gold in his pockets. I think it's pretty obvious what his motivations are. >> How fares business otherwise? -> (82) >> Don't worry, the Rainn family can count on my support. -> (83) >> I see, but I still need to hear the others. -> (0) > (84) Ellen Rainn: Look, darling. It's that lord again.((Requires phase 2 of [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]])) >> -> (85) > (85) Gailris Rainn: Ah, Lord Aercrest! Are we to understand that you might support us in our predicament with Baron Goldbridge? >> What's your dispute with Tyron Goldbridge about, exactly? -> (79) >> How fares business these days, Master Rainn? -> (82) >> Indeed, The Rainn family can count on my support. -> (83) >> I'll consider it. -> (0) > (220) Jon Armsteel: Perhaps you'll change your tone when my banner marches for the quarry you so insolently placed on my lands, eh?!((Requires phase 1 of [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]])) >> -> (221) > (221) Tyron Goldbridge: Your own vassal sold me the deed, what's it to me if you can't keep him in check? >> Continue listening. -> (222) >> *Why can't they just get along?* -> (231) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (222) Ellen Rainn: Who cares about some meaningless quarry in the middle of nowhere?! >> Continue listening. -> (223) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (231) Rothar Aercrest: *Alas, feuding vassals are an ever present occurrence for the lord of the realm. Every time you've hosted a feast, somebody's always insisted on causing a scene. However, this time it does seem to be worse than usual...* >> Continue listening. -> (222) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (228) Tyron Goldbridge: Ah, Lord Aercrest! Now that you're here, might you be willing to advice these bitter half-wits... >> Tyron Goldbridge! It seems to me that you have stepped on a lot of toes here! -> (229) > (223) Gailris Rainn: Ahem, quite right! The true crime here is the taxes you've levied against us foreign merchants. Standing in the way of free trade, it's simply outrageous! >> Continue listening. -> (224) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (229) Tyron Goldbridge: Well, Lord Aercrest... I... >> For the peace of our realm, I will see you make amends with at least one of the families here today! -> (230) > (224) Tyron Goldbridge: I should think quite the opposite, master Gailris. You're free to take your trade anywhere, as long as it's out of my city. Your competition is simply not welcome there! >> Continue listening. -> (225) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (230) Rothar Aercrest: *Being the lord of the realm, it's sometimes essential to keep your unruly vassals in check. Supporting the petition of one of the families present will gain their favor, and counterbalance the growing ambitions of Baron Goldbridge. Question is, which one to support?* >> *Does it matter?* -> (232) >> *Perhaps I'll simply pick one!* -> (233) >> *I'll talk to the families to determine that.* Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 2. -> (0) > (225) Dahlia Oldewood: Oh, it's your city, is it?! Well it's my city too, and the concerns of these others are nothing compared to the corruption you've brought onto the precious City of Thornhill! >> Continue listening. -> (226) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (232) Rothar Aercrest: *Perhaps, perhaps not... Each of the families present are influential in their own ways and will be grateful for your support.* >> *Then I'll simply choose one.* -> (233) >> *In that case I should talk to the families to determine who is most worthy.* Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 2. -> (0) > (233) Rothar Aercrest: *Indeed, discussing matters of state can get so terribly exhausting. To whom, then, will you lend your support?* >> *The warrior family, Armsteels.* Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 3. -> (0) >> *The merchants, Rainn family.* Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 3. -> (0) >> *The city estate, Oldewoods.* Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 3. -> (0) >> *Perhaps I'll talk to the families before making my decision.* Updates [[quest:concerning_lords_and_ladies|Concerning Lords and Ladies]] to phase 2. -> (0) > (226) Dahlia Oldewood: You prevented my husband a seat on the city council! And why is that? Are you perhaps afraid that someone might actually speak against you? >> Continue listening. -> (227) >> Enough of this! -> (228) > (227) Tyron Goldbridge: Oh Dahlia, let's not pretend your husband is actually capable of, well, anything really... apart from serving as your mouthpiece, perhaps. >> I've heard enough of this! -> (228) {{htmlmetatags>metatag-media-og:image=(:npc:550.webp)}}
