A Merchant's Gambit- I
Saad couldn't help but marvel at the Labertew's clothing as he took a look at it. The craftsmanship was impeccable, and the material felt otherworldly—smooth yet sturdy, with a faint chill that seemed to seep through his fingertips. The set that had thin layer of specks of snow made his eyes gleam. Maximillian, ever the astute merchant, noticed Saad's admiration and began to explain the significance of the Labertew's clothing.
"You've got a good eye," Maximillian said with a knowing smile. "Labertew's hide is no ordinary material. These creatures are born from pure cold energy, making them incredibly resilient and difficult to hunt. Only those skilled in ice magic or with extraordinary endurance can even hope to face them. The hide retains the cold energy, offering more than just warmth—its protection against the very elements that created it."
