[parchment]Two Dusty Tomes!

All right. Since 100 bags was apparantly TOO MUCH for you mages to afford, I will try this again.

Two dusty tomes for sale, which may contain the True Name of a powerful outsider that you fingerwagglers spellcasters can negotiate with. These are unresearched (because I don't know what to look for, and I don't want to screw up the research for someone else)

Starting bid is 60 bags for one. THIS IS AS LOW AS I CAN GO ON THESE!!!

Rules for the auction:
-Please, only bid on one book. Give your fellow mages a chance to grab one as well.
-Post your bid here. You may update your bid at any time.
-Bids will be open for a fourtnight three weeks (give you folks a bit more time)

Dram[/parchment]

A tall and gaunt man, dressed in dark robes and furs, leaves word that he will open the bid on one of the tomes. He inquires whether the subject matter of these particular tomes has been determined ((do you know the lore skill associated?)), as he has peculiar interests. He leaves his name as Zahven Thruel.

He also leaves a letter with the merchant's agent, in hopes that it will be delivered directly (PM incoming).

a dark tiefling woman leaves a playing card with a name to be given to the merchant selling the tomes.

PM sent

*Lannia Ranloss walks up and looks at the tomes* I will buy both for 120 bags, though you have no garauntee that the tomes contain a name at all.

All right. So far, I have a bid for 75, one for 100, and one for 120. (Like I said, selling them one per customer, so others can grab one. Seems only fair)

There's still two and a half weeks to go on this. Any more bids?

"I'll not go over 60 for a single tome with no garauntee there is a name in it," Lannia offers with a smile, "Thanks anyway."

All right, auction is over. Gale, Peir, make arrangements with me to get your books.
