Becoming a Merchant
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I idled, nearly voiding, suddenly there came a rapping,
As of some one gently tapping, tapping at my hostel door.
"'Tis some Merchant," I muttered, "tapping at my hostel
door:
Only this, and nothing more."
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no
longer,
"Sir," said I, "or Madam, truly your forgiveness
I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my hostel door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you" - here I opened wide the
door:
Reidia was there, and nothing more.
Reidia and I started talking, talking and nothing
more.
She spoke of an offer, to become a Merchant, and so I pondered,
and pondered.
Should I become a Merchant, a Merchant of the forgotten lore?
For many days I pondered this thought, and said "why not!"
Reidia showed me to her Master Merchant Czrel Azuki.
Me and him began talking, talking, and talking some more.
I spoke of Reidia's invitation to join Merchants of forgotten lore.
Czrel Azuki looked me over and he agree'd,
quoth the Master Merchant Czrel Azuki "Forgotten lore, Nevermore!"

Gold profiting methods
While I was in my hostel room, wandering around and eating 'brownies',
a big smile beamed across my face most curiously than ever. I began
to see, what I would like to call, the future. To put it more simply
they were just mere hallucinations. I giggled and laughed at the
slightest sounds, loud sounds were the best.
After many hours passing, suddenly there came a smashing, a smashing
type sound hitting my hostel door. I burst out yelling "WHO
IS IT?!?" , Looking scared and worried. Then I hear a voice
say, "It is I, Reidia.:
I reply, after had eaten many brownies "Reidia? Reidia who?"
She replies, "Reidia, the one who introduced you to Master
Merchant Czrel Azuki." I go to open the door and there she
was, it really was her!
We exchange a few words of greetings and then she says, "I
am here on business."
I said, "business? What kind of business..."
"It has been one month since you have joined our clan..."
she said.
"Go on..." I replied.
"We need to you write down your gold profiting method ways
so that the rest of the Merchants can help benefit from them to
increase our money as a whole." Reidia said.
"Very well" I replied.
I leave my hostel room with my 'brownies' in search of people to
sell them to, and eat some for myself along the way *big smile*.
I stumble into a store looking to buy a drink and I noticed a depressed
clerk behind the counter.
"What’s wrong Sir?" said I.
"My wife left me, took the kids, and all my money." he
said.
"Here, Sir, try one of my 'brownies', I promise they will cheer
you right up." said I. I give the clerk two of my 'brownies'
and after five minutes he had a bigger grin than I had hours ago.
"Mr. Brownie man, these are excellent brownies! I haven't a
care in the world and I am as happy as ever! I can't explain it
but... Who cares! I feel happy again." said the clerk.
"I knew they would do the trick. Say, would you like to buy
some to perhaps sell to everyone so they can be as happy as you,
and of course I will sell you some directly so you have your own
batch" said I.
"Oh absolutely! Everyone in the whole world would buy these,
it just makes you feel so happy about yourself and everyone around
you. I will buy as many as you can make." I sell him all the
brownies I had on me at the time for five hundred gold apiece, and
gave him some in advance to sell to his customers. Later on, the
slogan for this product became "Special Brownies, bet you can't
eat just five and be unhappy!"
