Marc's Migration
After leaving Durgrim's shop, Litia guided him to an appraiser reputed for his fair pricing.
Surprisingly, the man offered him five gold coins per amethyst and peridot, much more than he had hoped. Still, the man explained that the mineral size and deep color warranted such a price. He even added that he would have doubled it without a second thought if they were processed into gemstones.
Faced with the sizable sum and potential future profits, Adam decided to keep thirty of each and sell the rest for 195 gold coins.
Then, he inquired about the price for elemental gems but gave up on any thought of buying them. After all, he had almost choked when he learned that a single one would cost him twenty gold coins.
Still, a broad grin stretched his lips when he left the store.
The clicking of his heavy pouches accompanied his steps and added to his good humour as he left the city with Litia to tour the farms.
