I have found of late that my forge is being cluttered with odds and ends that have been tossed aside and discarded, old prentice-pieces that are just cluttering the Forge up.

One my apprentices, has however, suggested a way to convert these unwanted items into gold. I personally cannot see the advantage, but my apprentices seem to be enamoured of the idea of collecting money, so I have given my blessing to Rurin, who will
once a month transfer a number of items from the Forge to some place that he intends to barter them away for coins.

Do not ask me where the shop will be, for I shall not tell you, and do not pester the gods if the shop is out of stock of an item that you want - that is Rurin's responsibilty, as I have explained to him.

However, since I wish to see Rurin do well in his chosen venture, I shall upon occasion bless his stalls with the coins for you to spend there.

I hope, for Rurin's sake, that this selling idea of his takes off, and if so - who knows, maybe one day there will be more shops and more items to be bought?
