<div class="floatleft">(https://i.ibb.co/7RCCYSR/163b3c6b5f9d157497c686ec324ab12e.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Xane Meister (http://)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Throne Room<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Sariandi, Xandross, Brianni, Nazrysk & Ura.<br/><strong>Content:</strong>Addressing all in attendance.<br/><hr/><hr/><br/>Looking among the collection warriors and adventurer's, Xane could hardly contain his excitement. Each one looked more capable than the last in their own respective ways. All seemed well-traveled and well-maintained up to this point, meaning each of them had their own specific needs and desires, which they painstakingly upkeep during their travels. It all seemed too good to be true. The young merchant would have to be careful, however. Adventurers such as these are more than capable of sourcing their own materials were the need to arise. He would have to take all of this into consideration. And with so many differing styles and personalities, it would be hard work satisfying all of their desires exceptionally.<br/><br/>It was hard work to wrangle and tame his own wild horse instead of purchasing one from the sleazy stable merchant.<br/><br/>It was hard work studying the mechanics and maintenance of a travelling carriage instead of hiring an machinist.<br/><br/>It was hard work braving the wilderness alone in order to develop both survival and cartography skills.<br/><br/>Xane never shied away from hard work.<br/><br/>He stepped up with humble confidence. He was dressed for the court in his finest attire. Those unfamiliar with him would see him as a fine merchant adorned in a carefully crafted tunic with splashes of earthy colors that complimented the form-fitting slacks. None were as impressive as his shoes, however, which carried him to the center of the room between the King and the rest of those in attendance. Shined to perfection and crafted from the hide of a common predatory reptile, his attire showed the appearance of a man who could get whatever he needed for any occasion.<strong>"My King. It is with great honor that I, Xane Meister, answer your call."</strong>He gave a strong and polite bow before the lord as he allowed his announcement to reverberate through the room. With a strong back, he stood tall. His deep eyes focused on the man atop the throne.<strong>"I have traveled far and wide across many lands, and have acquired countless resources that will prove invaluable to both yourself as well as every adventurer taking part in this epic journey."</strong><br/><br/>Xane's address was changed from the king to everyone else in attendance as his eyes met with each and every one of them: A feat no introvert could accomplish without first emptying the contents of their stomach upon their sweater.<strong>"As an experienced traveler, I have ventured to many places and braved many lands. Now, I assume most of you are probably wondering why a puffed-up business-type like myself isn't resting in the intestinal tract of some overgrown lizard."</strong>With a humored look, he glanced over toward<strong>Nazrysk</strong>.<strong>"Well, I'd be a fool if I swung these flimsy arms at every beast and basilisk that crossed my path. No. What serves me just as well as your sword arm... is information."</strong>His eyes drifted over towards the two dark-haired women in the room;<strong>Ura</strong>and<strong>Brianni</strong>respectively.<strong>"Whether it be maps of nearby hunting grounds for creatures much bigger than myself or local watering holes where knowledge is shared between drunken townsman and adventurers alike, the acquisition of information is just as valuable to me as the shiniest suit of armor."</strong><br/><br/>His eyes flashed over toward the Dragonkin,<strong>Xandross</strong>.<strong>"Of course. Knowledge is only one piece of the puzzle. No shield is complete without a proper sword to go along with it. If your requirements are of something a bit more... practical, I promise not to disappoint."</strong>His attention casually drifted across the room before landing upon<strong>Nazrysk</strong>once more.<strong>"I've been fortunate enough to align myself with a network of blacksmiths and machinists. From dagger to dragon slayer, if it can be purchased it can be procured! And that goes for everything in between as well."</strong>He faced the group as a whole once more as he listed off several items he felt might be useful to them.<strong>"Potions and ingredients, books, bobbles, scripts, scrolls, and any item for any occasions."</strong>The young merchant smiled and bowed to the group just as he did for the king.<strong>"I would be honored to make myself of service to you all."</strong>There was an awful lot of them. This could prove to be a handful. Raising his head, he happily gestured towards the blonde bard.<strong>"If there is anything you need, please see myself or my beautiful assistant,</strong><strong>Sariandi</strong>,<strong>for any requests you might need."</strong>Knowing full well this was never once discussed with her prior, he prayed she wouldn't put up too much of a fuss.<strong>"And remember: If it can be purchased, it can be procured!"</strong><br/><br/>
