Tehr set the platinum coin down on the counter as he left, taking a small rather well used canvas square as well to wrap the statue in.  He wasn't pleased with the gnomish woman's excuses or apology, and he would have let the matter drop, but her tone and request that he not return irritated him.  He wasn't going to go out of his way to ruin this merchant, but he vowed that if possible he'd give her back a measure of difficulty that she'd given him today.  She was no simple shopkeep, if she had that much expensive merchandise on hand, she obviously was either well off, or the employee of a well off merchant.   Hopefully it was the latter, and that the wealthy merchant would be interested in knowing what kind of people he had working for him, costing him business.<br/><br/>Vowing not to let the encounter ruin his entire day, he went to find a cafe where he could sit and relax, and once settled found a messenger boy.  Pressing a coin into the hand of a messenger boy who looked fairly clean and presentable he asked, "Boy, I've a message I want sent to House Ravos.  Master Tehr ir'Wynt wishes to meet with Emily d'Ravos, or barring her, another noble of the house of any import."  He made sure the boy knew where the house was located before pressing a copper coin into his hand.<br/><br/>"I'll wait here for your return, with any message for me.  Two more copper will be yours upon your return."
