The mute and marbled merchant stands as statuesque as ever, while the planetouched passes item after item before his unblinking eyes, until...a pair of boots are presented, and with sound of the crackling of stones, the merchant moves his head toward here, and lifting an arm slowly, raises a hand before to, as a gesture that she should pause.

Without expression, he gestures once more by lowering his palm, turning the open hand into a fist and then curling outward a long, stony finger to point at the boot.

It would appear that the merchant has made a choice, and a deal is to be made....
The dark skinned tiefling looks at the boots and then takes just one of the pair and hands it to the merchant.

"Look at it friend, high quality boot, smell it, it smells good! No sweaty feet has ever touched such magical boot ever!"

She would then display a toothy grin and then her tiefling tail she would point at the scimitar again.

"You got a deal good man!"

The mute & marbled merchant does as he does best, stand statuesque, as the newly arrived man passes a note in the genasi's direction. The note would linger there, un-taken, unacknowledged...or at least, as far as anyone could tell. But also, not to anyone's surprise, would they have the least amount of familiarity with said merchant of cold stone form.

"Nay be taken it personal-like, Ser..." says a passing local of the Friendly Arm, who must have witnessed the lack-of-direct interaction between two, and knowing the way of the marbled merchant with everyone and anyone, as the local made his way onward.

With no further reaction, it could only be that what has been offered upon the note, must no longer an enticing item for trade.
