Miss Zelly,

I've acquired the ingots you asked me for. I will gladly meet you at your earliest convenience.
I also have a needs of services of skilled engineer or inventor.

Miss Zelly, I have a bucketload of paper, whenever you want to pick it up.

Aly.

Aly,

I can meet you when it's convenient for both of us. Just send me a message in Kohlingen if you're around with the cargo!

Zelly

These are sent out once again. The sign outside the building is also updated, with a little note attached.

Everyone,

Great job thus far! I'm looking forward to our upcoming meeting, as well. I've gone ahead and put names behind specific orders so everyone knows which ones to pick up. If you think another is more suited than you are, simply let me know and I can update the list. Good luck, everyone!

Gael'ean, Alton, and Drannok, if you could all send me a list of which spells you are capable or willing to use to craft potions, wands, or scrolls - as per our discussions - I would very much appreciate it. It'll be easier to have a list so we know directly who to go to when someone places an order.

Thank you all!

Zelly

Miss Zelly,

Adamantine chain mails are ready for delivery.

]To: Zelly.

I have already aquired half of the order of dimonds i will be cutting the rest within the next few days. I must add that they area thing of great beauty i hope whoever requires them will treat them as such.

Regards.

Associate Sammy Black.

[Cedric leaves a note in Zelly's office]

It took three tries but I finally got the mix right on that special potion you mentioned Ms. Zelly. I had to purchase the bark but that is fine, I made more then that selling some of the plants I harvested.

I have a few other items I have left here that I found along the way. If you have need of the potion soon, just send word to me at the Nomad. I will bring it to you as quickly as I can. I want to keep it with me to make sure it is safe.

I also would like to know where to set up the trade box so others might get the herbs I offer for their own use?

Finally, I put up a small shop in the Merchant Hall of Cordor with a few items I found. Not sure if it will matter but, maybe it could lead to some extra gold for further efforts on my part to make things ordered by others.

Cedric

To: Zelly.

I have cut a number of diamonds most of above average cut and quality, though there are a few of them that are excellent, i shall let you decide if they are adequate, and await a meeting to setup the trade of the diamonds.

Regards.

Associate Sammy Black.

A large chap with a slight orcish appearance bends down and slides an envelope under zellys door at copper industries... On opening it the letter is written in a neat but childish hand with large letters and much smudging of ink.

Hello Miss Zelly,

I nearly have your order of four swords ready, 3 are done and I am happy with them, but I have wasted much ore in the process and threw away many swords that I was not happy with.

I am still looking for some more iron ore to finish the last sword. I must find a good miner, as my efforts at digging are clumsy and I prefer to spend the time at the forge.

My forging skills are rusty, all I seem to have done for many moons is swing my axe. But I have enjoyed being back in front of the furnace again. Mind you anybody nearby might not have got that idea as a few bad words escaped my lips at times.

I do not think I will be able to make it to the meeting as something urgent has come up, but please pass on my greetings to all the others crafter's, and let them know they can leave a message for me with that grumpy dwarf Glaran at the forge, or else at the Mayfield's Inn with Bill the Barman.

Let me know where to drop the swords off.

Regards

Eroki

PS A Copper industries uniform would be smart, I think it should have an anvil on it, and maybe a hammer, in copper on a black background.

(Cedric knocks on the door to Copper Industries but gets no reply. One of the guards mentions seeing Miss Zelly heading off to parts unknown. He writes a note.)

Miss Zelly,

I finally completed the potion you mentioned. As I mentioned before, it did take three attempts as I am still learning how to mix things properly.

I do have a question however. The bark I am having to purchase from a local merchant and it is never in ample supply and does cost considerable gold. Do you have a supply of it or know someone that can tell me where to find some so I can harvest it?

Long Life,

Cedric

A large hulking figure with long straw colored hair neatly tied back stands at the door of copper industries, carrying a bundle of swords, carefully wrapped in cloth. Grinning happily he gently raps on the door a couple of times, "yer there Miss Zelly?".

Hearing no answer he looks disappointed, and digs through his pack to find ink and paper.

He slowly writes a short note, pausing often to think.

Dear Miss Zelly,

Your swords are ready. I come latter to see if you are home. I will be staying in maryfeild's inn, or hunting in the swamps.

regards

Eroki

He carefully folds the note and slips it under the door

Dear Miss Zelly,

Two helmets you gave me to work with are completed. Tell me when you are ready to pick them up.

Note left at the company office board****

If anyone knows of a supply of Chinchona Bark I need to acquire it for an order. I am also planning on a trip to Khem to see if I can locate suitable trees if anyone wishes to be my guide.

Cedric

Roscoe pads up to the familiar door, slipping a dirt-stained note underneath.

Copper,
I've got the marble all cut for you. I'll find you or I'll be in the Dale yard, not that you don't know where to find me.
Keep me up to date on any other stone needed.

Grimwarden

Eroki strolls up to the door, wondering if one day he might get a key for it...

He slides a note under the door...

Dear Miss Zelly,

I have got the iron from the wiltun guards to make their shackles, and have forged the iron parts like a pair of bracers with a chain between them. But I am not happy with the result, they are clumsy to put on,and adjust for different sized people, and are easy to get off.

Any assistance in their design would be helpful, and maybe a locksmith is needed for a lock?

I also have some fancy stone ores, which I can give to Sammy black, he might be able to use them.

If I could get some wood I would like to try refining some steel, do you know a woodsman I could get some from?

I also have a 4000 Gp commission to give you for some mythaling work I did for a customer.

Fair winds

Eroki

PS can I get a key

//really not sure how to make it.. I have just made some plain Iron Bracers. maybe it needs a special property, Ie make it really heavy to encumber, or a paralysis effect?, or perhaps a wand of paralysis might be better?//

A note is pinned up by a copper kin who appears to be in a hurry today.

Eroki, Ross, Emilly,

Come find me or Chief Manager Eli Hodgewall for delivery of the orders, and for anything else that's needed!

Zelly

These are sent out to all associates once again, fully updated and with a little addendum.

Congratulations to Alton, who has been named Manager of Arcane Services! Feel free to go to him if you need anything related to his branch!

Zelly

Miss Zelly,

While travelling through cordor I noticed a sign posted in a corner, it caught my eye with it's heading of tyranny, death and dispair.

I removed the sign and bought it straight here, as I was not sure if it was suitable or authorised.

Please advise if this was the right course of action?

Eroki

*Carefully folded is the sign below*

Zelly sighs as she pens a response and takes the folded "sign" and message.

Thank you for taking it down, Eroki. We most certainly did not help the followers of the dark sun. We don't even make paintings for people - it's not in our catalogue at all. It should speak highly of the perpetrator's assets and intelligence that they had to paint their message on canvas and set it up on an easel when there are perfectly good designs for normal signs to use (not to mention the poor spelling and grammar - evil people need to learn Common).

This was likely done by someone affected by our policy regarding those of evil mind or blood, so please disregard it. I will be sending a message to the Cordorian authorities to prevent further libel against our company.

Again, thank you for bringing this to my attention.

Zelly

a lettet posted on the boards

Zelly.
Make sure the painting is kept and not disregarded, for there is a myriad of things one wielding the art can weave to track down the culprit behind this hideous beschmirshing of the company.

And i also fear that this could very well continue, least we do something.
The common mans prejudice against dragonkin as yourself could lead to unwanted occurances, not to mention bad reputation and a loss of sale.

Let us start a private investigation alongside the cordorian guard.

Gael'ean,

I have the message easel still. I told him to disregard it as truth, not to discard the item! But as you say, it is my intention. I will be bringing this to Belalad, and hopefully we can get it sorted out. You are right about the way I may be viewed, due to my heritage, but it is my hope that I won't be needed for much more than the initial report. I don't want to get in anyone's way.

Also, you haven't responded to my previous attempts to get your attention, Gael'ean. We need to meet and talk as soon as you're able. Hopefully soon!

Zelly

Can anyone find the wyvern hide required for the leather armor order? The bloke near Cordor is tight lipped about his supplier.
~Eli

I'll get you some, Eli. I know a supplier who as of yet can't be convinced to join the company properly. Or, if you get the chance, seek out Karindi yourself. She's one of our outside contacts.

Additionally, I'm making our roster public. I believe I've been losing messages in my box, so I'm asking everyone to step up a little bit and offer some help in taking and delivering orders. If people have contact names, it might be easier for them to find who to talk to. They may even get their orders quicker working directly with you. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns!

Zelly

*Having not gone far, Eli calls over as he sees Zelly and waves a copy of the roster.*
"You do know I am a better scribe than a leather worker, don't you? May want to amend the next set to add that I can keep and copy records fairly well."

She grins over at him. "Well, we don't have many leatherworkers, but we have a bunch of scribes. I'll put it in anyway!"

*He smirks at her and finds a free chair. He then pulls out a cloth and his mask, cleaning some sand off of it as he waits for the wyvern hide.*

[Cedric appears near the offices with splintered boards. His normally smiling and cheerful self quite angered and upset. He tosses once was obviously a sign down in the front all of the offices. He leaves a note on the pile of wood for Zelly. The sign is exactly as the painting.]

I found this posted near Pinky's Pawn shop in South Cordor and another near the orphans! The one near the orphans is now ash, forgive my anger but it is bad enough such trash is allowed in the streets of Cordor but to have one of this vile ilk near the children?

Unacceptable.

I am headed back to Cordor and will keep an added eye out in the southern area of Cordor and the area of the Orphanage and if I find this person I will most assuredly deal with them directly. Dark Sun indeed...let us see if the Dark Sun can withstand the brightness of Horus Re and Osiris!

Also, I need to find you to deliver the rest of the order.

Cedric

A note is sent to the headquarters.

"Found another of those signs bearing the Cyricist message. This one was at the bridge up the hill just north of Cordor, at the edge of the frontier proper. I disposed of it, as I had no means of transporting it here.

I intend to look into this myself.

Velden"

Posted on the notice board in the Copper Industries building, Kohl

Miss Zelly, I was approached by a Lady, wearing a black robe and hood yesterday outside bender dale, wanting some of my shackles made. She was not able (or willing) to provide details of her employer, and would not remove her hood.

Although she was pleasant to speak with I declined politely to make them until she had spoken with you, citing company procedures and such. Her name was given as Alice. You may hear from her, perhaps with a complaint at my conduct. I hope you will be able to find more out about her than I could.

Cheers

Eroki

*A crudely drawn woodsman's axe is sketched beneath*

Eroki,

I thank you for being diligent in this. If she doesn't offer more information, she's not going to get much of anything, let alone shackles or anything else that could be used in horrible ways. I'll keep an eye out for her, but don't expect an order for them!

Thank you Ms. Zelly for the payment and accepting the delivery of the items. It is unfortunate the circumstances of our last meeting but, I hope the ceremony will at least give Nebt Kalia some measure of peace.

Additionally, as I mentioned, Nebt Asiya, daughter of Fudail, son of Hazim of Al-Izdihar, was appointed as Emissary to Copper Industries and will handle the abundant trade opportunities from Djedet and Khem. She will contact you shortly.

I would also ask that if you are contacted by any Thoth wizards, you mention we wish to speak to them as our people seek them to help in our arcane research and similar matters.

Once more, please express the sadness of my heart to Kalia for her loss.

[Cedric leaves a note to be passed around to the members of the Industries]

Quote:

To all fellow members,

I'm in need of several signs being made up and at least one painting being commissioned.

I would like to find out the costs of these things for me and see if I can keep these task internal before seeking outside sources.

The signs are simple, stating that the people of Mulan in Djedet seek Thoth followers of our people to aid in the building of the city. That they should contact the Lord Arbitrator or the Sehkry Mahir Ramathant in the city.

The painting will be of my Lord Osiris and I will use as a shrine. I would prefer a stone statue but, I don't think I could carry it around with me. Should this be possible, that would be preferred.

Please leave word if you can assist me.

Cedric

A note is left for Cedric.

Dearest Cedric,

You should read our catalogue yourself, silly. It says quite plainly that we sell signs for one hundred fifty gold coins. I even have a spare, after Sammy's last order for them. As far as paintings go, you might ask Herial Ghalen, our druidic potion and wand crafter. If you can't get hold of him, I'll find him myself if you like.

Do let me know.

Zelly

Zelly

All orders for me are filled, except the ten excellent quality diamonds, still working on them, ill speak with ya soon.

Regards

Accociate Sammy

One blue diamond cut into a six-sided die - only of the best quality (Sammy)
One Sapphire of the best quality (Sammy)
One large crystal, cut to the best quality (Sammy)

These are updated and sent out again.

Associates,

We have a few new orders to fill, though we still need quite the supply of paper. They don't stop needing them, our clients! We have a few new large orders coming in, too, so keep an eye open here.

Thanks, everyone!

Zelly

*A written note is left where it can be read.*

Dear: Zelly

I have some leather I have turned into paper for you that I have been saving. Also I have been experimenting with some new techniques and if you have need of any "Traps" to be crafted let me know. As I have come to learn quite a bit about then. Or if you need any papyrus turned into paper as well. Anyways let me know and may the lady luck bless you with good fortune.

Sincerely:

Caesai

Dear miss Zelly,

Sorry for the untypical delay. I had some stuff to deal with, but I have finally got time to make those two adamantine full plates. I'll deliver them to you as soon as possible.

Hello, everyone!

The main company office has been closed down as we prepare to move to a different and bigger location. We'll have an office up and running again in no time! Anyone with ideas or suggestions is welcome to share them. I hope you're all doing well!

Zelly

Dear Zelly,

I have started a job for Mister Mikal Stonesword, but if you have any other Weapon-smiths that can help me with it, it would be appreciated. For he wants only the best quality, and two skilled hammers will ensure the strongest blade.

And I am not sure what price I should be charging him, can you look after that side of it?

I would be interested in taking on an apprentice if a likely one is about. And I have found an Inventor of much skill, who can also hunt for skins. His name Is Jard, and he is keen to meet with you.

Well I haven't seen you in ages, I have missed your smile. And I am hoping I will be seeing you soon.

Letters are sent out to all associates, along with a copy of the updated newsletter.

Attention, Associates!

I hope you have all seen my recent announcement. I have grown tired of seeing our wares, services, and coin be distributed to those we have refused to serve. As such, I would ask that all of you decline continued business with those who are blacklisted due to their ties to evil creatures and persons. A blacklist has been written at the bottom of the attached newsletter.

If you feel this is an error in judgment, please come see me to discuss it. Right now, I have no qualms whatsoever about barring our clientele from working or trading with half-devils, demons, or blackguards. I hope you understand this change in policy.

Respectfully,
Zelly

Zelly,

I have read the announcement and I will take care about it.

The five signs are ready.

Emilly.

Zelly;

Just a note, I've recently branched into making potions of divine spells, if they're needed!

~Aly'dra

Alydra,

That's excellent news! I'll be updating our catalogues sometime this tenday, so if you could deliver a reagent cost for a few of the potions you think might be more popular, that would be wonderful. I'll adjust the prices for other potions around them.

Thank you!

Zelly

I am going to need lead and crystal for the mythal tubes. If anyone can help me with that, I will have them completed within a day.

Zelly,

I have finished the bags you wanted.
