The Golden Merchant's Pursuit

"Hmm...That's not so bad."

Sitting at a luxurious-looking inn, Shiva was chugging down a bottle of fine wine, savoring the rich flavor that danced on his tongue. Before him lay a sumptuous spread of delicacies, each dish more tempting than the last. A platter of succulent roasted boar, its crispy skin glistening with a tantalizing glaze, sat beside a bowl of creamy mushroom soup, the earthy aroma wafting through the air. 

A plate of perfectly grilled fish fillets, adorned with slices of lemon and fresh herbs, beckoned to be sampled, while a vibrant array of roasted vegetables added a pop of color to the feast.

All these delicacies were his for a mere 50 karma points – a true bargain in the Tower. As Shiva indulged in the exquisite cuisine, the din of the crowded inn surrounded him, voices and laughter filling the air. Amidst the chatter, he overheard a group of patrons discussing something that piqued his interest.
