Walking around the merchant stalls and visiting the Gloura's wings, a Zau'Afin weaponmaster named Bardax makes inquiries about anyone who would be willing to sell a Tower shield of the Beast for a better price then what is offered by Antryn Vrath. If asked about the sylvan blade his Yathrin Maim has inquired about, the weaponmaster responds that she is no longer interested in this blade. The Weaponmaster is cantakarous and is readily pliable with drink and coin for information about the recent activities of Zau'Afin. His wit and humor is strange to the ear, as his confidence either belies a deadly blade master, or a foolish Jaluk. If inquired furhter about the sylvan blade the weaponmaster reveals he is interested in the blade, but could never pay for something so valuable.
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
your gates of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones.
