Ledger of Honest Dealings & Very Real Profit Projections

Author: 
Vratni Copperhand, Legitimate Merchant

Part diary, part sales record, and part self-aggrandising memoir—all scribbled in a heavy, well-travelled tome that smells faintly of pipeweed. Supposedly a business ledger, it serves more as a colourful chronicle of Vratni’s wheeling, dealing, grifting, and occasionally heartfelt attempts at 'honest' trade.

The Commander Remembers

What kind of Adventure is this?: 
Story

    The ring had been given and vows had been said. The two young fellows were now man and wife. He had known the two for so little time it had seemed, he could not recall when their affections had become apparent. He had seen them survive the dangers of a troll attack while on guard duty and their recent delving into a goblin colony. Amaken and Anastasiar were now together bonded now more than any member of the Company. The sight was much too much for Altheric to bear.
