"If those bandits ever return, I'd like to know as soon as possible. I live in the big house over there, on the island connected to the coast with a long dock", she noted to the driver. "If they try to pull that crap again, I will wipe them off the map." Maintaining my stones until we're back.

"I see. That is a new thing." She admitted with a sigh. "I came here to purchase silk. This village is one of the few places on this part of the continent that can farm the material."

"Fascinating. I wonder if the people at the village are aware of that potential goldmine", she pondered.

"Well, here we are. Please enjoy your stay and seek me out if you need services not found in town", Alex said warmly. "...Speaking of which, anything else you'd need while I'm here, or...?" she asked as she got off the wagon.

"Quite possibly", Alex said, smiling; in her experience, in universes such as this one, dwarves were indeed often the first ones to invent firearms, alongside with gnomes and sometimes, smarter, more advanced goblin tribes. She held out her hand, manifesting an illusion of a flintlock rifle floating over it.

"Is that something you guys would like to use? ...I mean, just the sound alone would probably cause attackers to turn tail and run for their lives, but they're solid weapons on top of it. Especially if I'm the one making them", she said, winking.

"Ideally yes." She said. "If you can make something as good or better than those weapons I would pay handsomely."

"Sounds good. Come seek me out at my shop once you're done with your business in town", she said, smiling.
