Adelaide explains what these other times are and then waits to hear his reaction.

"Good madam...fair greetings this day! Your appearance has kept my voice paused, as you must have noticed...it is, thankfully, only momentarily. Now then, you have taken a keen interest in the scimitar I have placed up for trade. It is particular, that it is. And it is only for trade, for I must look upwards in order to achieve that which lies before me, on my path—the value must move, like water, from one state to another, yet remain constant."

"What I am saying, good madam, is that I cannot deal against your offer. It is not high enough. And I am truly apologetic, that I cannot help you, without helping myself equally. But shall ye bring up another offer in any time in the future, I will hear it, with patience."

"Only for trade, Aldebaran?" Adelaide looks disappointed but the expression only lasts for a little while before she smiles again and gives a small shrug. "It did no harm asking, did it!" A pleasant sounding laugh leaves her lips.

"If I find something Aldebaran, I might return. Or if you change your mind and find more value in gold, please find me!" Her tone is cheerful, understanding of Aldebaran's wishes.

When Adelaide departs, she touches the fingertips of her right hand against her lips and then turns her palm outwards towards Aldebaran. "May Sune bless your heart and Waukeen your sales."

Selina Quinn approaches the merchant after seeing the selection of bard items for trade. "I am interested in acquiring these bard gloves. I have this helm here I could trade for it."

Helm 5th level cleric spell, +3 wisdom, 5% sonic vulnerability

Aldebaran takes measure of the woman as she appears, then listens with intent to her offer. "Well, let me take a small look at your helm..." he says as much as asks, taking the helm and trying it upon his own head.

"Such a crown of sages, I can feel its power subtly granting me greater insight...but, is that wisdom gained come with such a ringing in the ears?"

Aldebaran takes off the helm and returns it to the woman.

"It would benefit me, surely...and at the moment, I have had no other offer of trade for the gloves born from Ysidrain himself. Let me think on the offer for one day time, and should I profit no other way...I will give you my answer then."

With a kinda smile, Aldebaran walks away from the Wide, holding his chin with his right hand and with a pensive look upon his face.

a young man walks up. "I will offer a bid of 25,000 gold for the moonstone mask. Names Mikel"

"Very good, dear woman, very good." Aldebaran speaks out at the woman when he returns to the Wide, and sees her nearby. "I have given it some thought and should you still wish it, I will make this trade."

A dwarf approaches the merchant stand. "´Oi there. I am Merovyan of Clan Ironfaar. I am interested in your ring which enhances dexterity. What are you asking for it? Will 15 bags of coin be enough?"

///want to buy ring with +3 dex, offer 15000 gold.

Selina smiles as she says, "I'm afraid I've already found a similar pair of gloves. I am, however, interested in this scimitar here. Perhaps we could figure out a trade? My helm and a decent sum of gold for the scimitar?"

Looking at the belt wide eyed this masked Sun Elf with feathers in his hair shows a ring and an amulet. The amulet allowing an additional a casting of a sixth level spell. The ring allowing a casting of a fifth level spell. Both additional castings are clerical.

"I doubt this is suitably enough, and am reluctant to offer this for the belt but, I ponder the thought as, I've not seen an item like this nor like these I present; here before.

Aldebaran stares upon the masked Elven being—it would seem—and with a certain hesitation, as if wondering that within the public market of the Wide, if the Watch would not accost them both, for dealing with hidden facial identity.

Nevertheless, Aldebaran is addressed directly and chooses to respond:

"Good day, good day...I am honored to hear your offer, good...man...," he stumbles this out, choosing words more safe to say, it would seem. "But it serves me in my purpose to only trade for equal merit trades...does that not agree with you to be the wisest action? I do hope you can understand."

"It does an I am relieved to know I will keep these for when I can make better use of them." *then departs*

Gaven Arkalis walks up to the stall glancing over the wares and rubs the back of his neck with a free hand.

"Hail mate, what are ye looking for, for the boots there?" He gestures to the Forest Walker boots.

"A fine day to you!" Aldebaran replies, with his usual positive manner of expression. "What I am looking for, since you asked, in all realities known to Men...that we may know...is only somewhat related to these boots of the Forest Walker. Yes...it may be with wisdom or with simply obviousness that I gather you wish to ascertain a cost, for these boots...am I correct?"

Aldebaran strokes his mustache.

"Can I coax you into paying the amount of 30 bags of coin, for them? I will make sure they are properly polished by the finest gnome leatherman."
