We have arrived at The Point!
"These bags contain thin wooden chits... wooden coins if you will, and burned into their
faces is what they are redeemable for. Each has a small hole in the top of it and a
leather cord will be provided. They will be placed on the cord and the cord tied around
your wrist or ankle, whichever you prefer, to be carried with you at all times. When you
wish the service they offer, just snap the coing from the cord and present it and your
service on that coin will be provided. Linna will place the wooden coins on the cord for
you. If you are short of coin, Sidona will issue you a reasonable personal loan from the
camp treasury. I am not accepting nor requiring interest be paid on any loan for personal
use unless it is not repaid by the time we return to Turia. Failure to repay by that time
will incur a twenty-five percent rate payable on demand. Any Clan in need of funds may
receive them at a 2 percent rate of interest due by the start of winter migration. Failure
to pay will result in the Clan Elder being replaced and held personally liable for the
amount. Sidona will do the lending. If you run short at anytime while in The Point, see
the Ubara or Mercilayne for a quick few coin to get you back here where further arrangements can
be made. This is to help prevent you from missing any of those now or never deals you may
come across."
"The wooden chits or coins Linna will give you, are redeemable for the following...
Kaiila tending in the livery for the length of our stay. This includes a good scrubbing
and tending service, feeding immediately and every three days following, shelter, daily
grooming and exercise period so they do not stand idle during the time we are here. A
free bath for all, at the bath of your choosing provided it is NOT of the opposite gender.
Laundry service to get your clothing cleaned and mended. A good sit down meal at the
commissary. A room at the Tri Moon Inn and all the services provided there. A free drink
at the Bent Elbow. Free haircut at the Barber for men and a full treatment at Rayah's
place for all females. And due to the overstock of vulo at this time, a chit will even get
you four vulo eggs for use here in our encampment should you wish to eat them here.
QUESTIONS?"
"Since not every Clan Elder was able to make this venture, if any of you can assist
them in acquiring supplies, it would be greatly appreciated. Ubara's Own... Healers
Own... all Warriors of Tuchuk... a special chit will be issued only to you good for
a night at Gash's Lodge... duty permitting of course."
"All slaves, kajira and thralls alike will receive a copper for good service. Spend it
as you wish."
