Miere, Capitalist and Venture

Looking up, Miere nods. "Certainly. Two days should suffice whether you already have some low enchantment upon the weapon, or should it be a pristine masterwork weapon as yet untouched by magic that you would like both enhancement and an effect on."

Looking the dwarf up and down thoughtfully, Miere nods. "I'm guessing making it keen, plus the requisite enchantment necessary to add such an effect, would suit you?"

A familiar face pulls up to miere and capitalists store. His driver looks unusually heavy armored, and has a rather fashionable ring as well.

Solomon steps down from the cart and walks in, He says: "Hello Miere, how are the kids?" in a uncharacteristically cheerful voice.

Solomon chuckles, "I've been agressively expanding my current roster" he points at his driver, "the latest employee, not asas physically impressive as the last to, but he is a bit more inconspicuous"

"Well, he's more of a driver. Actually, although I have to admit to enjoying you and capitalists way of thinking, I am here for these:" he pulls over the tarp on his cart to reveal two massive blades of excellent quality. "I fought some shadows today, nasty bastards, I find that my employees required a lot more effort to end these foes.Thus I feel the need to equip them slightly better, I know you are the man and well, eidolon for the job."

Solomon gives a sly grin.

"They usually dont last long enough to feel sorry for them"

He hands Miere the 3000 gold

"Thank you, my employees do appreciate it. Well, they would but you understand there posistion im sure."

Setting up the table in his office for what looks like a seance, Miere tutted to himself and mumbled under his breath, going over the questions again in his head. Capitalist watched him patiently from the corner of the room as he understood how Miere thought and was content to wait. With the crackle of patially broken chiting, Venture fluttered up on the the desk, adjusting his newly made clothing. His tail was still reminiscent of his previous disguise, that of a mottle green scorpion, but the rest of him now appeared as a tiny slim humanoid. Emerald feathery wings sprouted from his back, an almost garish colour compared to his duller skin. Looking up at Miere, he gracked a tiny grin. "So Sir, what were you going to ask?"

As Miere turned to Venture he frowned. "I must confess, the exact wording slightly eludes me. As you know I wish to start researching how to... alter my form to be closer in function to the malleability of Capitalist and to some extent yourself, but condensing it to a series of yes or no questions is an interesting exercise..." With a deeper frown Miere sat back in his chair, his fingers steepled on the desk in front of him. After a few moments, Miere nodded at venture to begin. With a slightly chuckle, Venture eased himself in to a sitting position only to suddenly snap upright a few moments later, light emanating from his eyes and mouth as the commune began.

Leaning forwards, Miere started.

"Does Rook have the research and information to work towards immortality?"

"Would Cloud City or Orashar be a better choice to research immortality than Rook?"

"Are the Illithids, self-named Psionidari, of Orashar a productive choice to ask about methods of altering my form and nature?"

"Since Cloud City has a population of Tieflings, would they be useful to talk to concerning extending my lifespan?"

"Do the Drow of Oriar allow outsiders to delve in to their research of fleshcrafting?"

"Would I need to go to an as yet undiscovered by Rook location to investigate maintaining physical and sentient existance beyond death?"

Thinking those questions sufficient for now, Miere leant back and waited for the answers.

Miere pondered the words for a few moments before responding. "It seems like the areas to look to are Rook and either Cloud City or Orashar, maybe both. Tieflings as a matter of course, no doubt due to their ancestry. The Drow are a dead end which is a slight relief, as I hear their fleshcrafting is a less than pleasant experience."

Standing up with renewed purpose and the beginnings of a grin, Miere turned to Capitalist and Venture. "It looks like we have a lot of research to do lads. Here's to beginning the first step of practical immortality!"

Chuckling, Venture stood and brushed himself off as Capitalist inclined his head in agreement. There was lots of work to do. The Miere Magick libraries would be the first starting point.
