In that case, the largest mirror of the bunch is going to be the one that we are going to take for our personal use. It is also good that apart from that table mirror with the stand, the price is going to stay the same regardless of the sizes of the mirrors.
Since it is only going to the one in the whole eleven mirrors set, it would seem that the stand is going to be attached as a special service at a later date, and it will also be done without any additional charges.
Wait, so you are telling me that the price of attaching a stand to the table mirror that is going to be added to the largest mirror out of the eleven that we ordered to be made is already included in that fee that Sherry and Roxanne paid? Oh wow. As, as expected of Sherry I guess, and for the second time today no less.
Great job, Sherry.
Oh, I forgot to mention that, but this particular thing has been negotiated by Miss Roxanne.
Really, Roxanne?
Yes. I asked him if it could be done in such a way and he agreed to do it.
In that case congratulations to you as well for you bartering skills.
Who would have thought? I was convinced that Sherry was the one who negotiated that particular thing as well, but the one whom I have to thank for it is actually Roxanne. She seems to be a girl of many talents besides dodging and smelling enemies in the Labyrinths, it would seem.
And what about the amber situation in Palmasque? Did you manage to learn anything about it?
Yes, actually. In the very same workshop to which we went with the commission. The craftsmen there said that since his workshop is dealing in decorating mirrors as well, he would be willing to buy amber, but he mentioned that he would prefer the rough stones instead of already processed ones so that he could process them freely himself according to his preferences.
So that means that there actually is a possibility for us to do some amber-based business in Palmasque, right?
It was right next to the sign of the Adventurers Guild, which was a motif of the earth on a square mark right at the Guilds entrance. I think that either Roxanne or Sherry explained to me before why is the symbol of the Adventurers Guild that one in particular, and if I remember correctly, it was all about the symbolism that Adventurers can go pretty much anywhere they want on this earth.
The building right next to the Adventurers Guild looked perfectly ordinary, just like any other building around it, so if I did not even knew what exactly I was looking for, I would have most likely simply went past it without looking back. All right, since we are already here, then I guess there is nothing left to do for us but to go inside, huh?
And that is exactly what we did.
Welcome, esteemed customers.
A courteous, cat-eared female clerk welcomed us.
Oooooh! Cat ears! Genuine cat ears! They look incredibly good on her. They make her look both playful and cute at the same time. As I thought, Roxannes doggy ears have their own unique charm to them, but nothing is ever going to best cat ears in terms of their sheer cuteness value.
Is this the place that deals in selling amber?
Indeed. If it is amber you want, then you have definitely come to the right place.
All right, so it looks like we are exactly where we needed to be, even if this place is looking more like an office than a shop in a typical sense of the word, not to mention that I do not see any amber on the display anywhere here. Well, if it is really as valuable of a jewel as everybody is saying that it is, then it would stand to reason that they would not be keeping it displayed in the proper shop un order to prevent any attempts at stealing it.
Forgive me for being too direct, but I was under the impression that you are going to be an Elf.
An understandable assumption since Bode and the Hartz Duchy are considered to be an Elven territory, but amber is found near sea, and it just so happens that the lands where it can be harvested belong to the members of the Catkin race, so it is only natural for the Catkin to run such a shop, do you not think, Mr. Customer?
She said so in a small, matter-of-factly voice, after which I felt dumb for speaking so casually about something that might have insulted her.
