Another Drink-stained letter sent to Arnock Reyer

[Karp]

Sharpshooter:

Is a Sergeant significant enough if he doesn't have a portrait commissioned?

Let's talk prices.

How much are you willing to invest in your legacy? I can even paint you with two eyes.

Gaston Fournier,
Student at the College of the Balladeers of the Last Hearth.

Balladeer

What's your starting price for a painting? I would not consider myself vain but the idea of a self portrait and a tasteful one at that does interest me. And we'll be keeping it to one eye, otherwise how else will the Well know that the best long bowman in Ephia does so with only a single eye.

Sergeant Arnock "Nock" Reyer

[Karp]

You flatter me, Arnock. I am no balladeer, yet. For I do not deserve the title.

I am a mere student. I know it seems incongruous given my natural talents with blade and brush, but, alas.

Since you've been so kind to me, I won't charge you my normal Fourth rates, which are double than everyone else's. So you will pay my normal rate: 300 dinar.

Is this acceptable? Any other details you would like to be added to the portrait?

Gaston.

[Canadianloki]

Gaston

Perhaps it was your puffy sleeves then that had me mistake you for a balladeer. Regardless we'll call it 350 for the addition of my hawk Masterion on my shoulder

Sergeant Reyer

[Karp]

Done.

Reyer:

Destroy my previous work, for I have been struck by genius.

Attached to this letter you shall find your true portrait.
