A Merchants Insight

So it dawned on me, you know what I REALLY hate the most? It's trying to identify what potions are what and what alchemical things are what. At some point last market I found myself in possession of a Merchant Insight scroll--I think I bought from Bruisey--and I would like for someone who can cast Ritual magic to cast it on our tavern.

that's right, for a single 10 weekends of market, we'll all be able to identify things almost instantly!

I have also supplied 3 out of 4 components, but could use the donation of a Penna.

This will be benefitted by everyone. So, who shall cast this convenience?!

A generous fellow,
Binks
 
I will be able to cast it on Saturday if that works for you.

-Fredrick
 
I was already planning this as a project for the merchant guild. I'll happily provide the penna as well provide a preserve duration.
 
I will be willing to cast it as well, if for some reason Mister Fredrick is incapable or unavailable. I will waive the usual casting fee as a gesture of goodwill.

Assuming this tavern building is larger than about a dozen feet across, multiple casters of the same aspect will need to cast a simultaneous Circle of Power to encompass it. I can supply a single casting of an Earthen Circle of Power.

I think Friday would be good, and I know there are plenty of Earthen Casters to extend the circle. That being said, perhaps if we added a Haven if the Living since a Preserve is to be used it may help with any undead issues.

Regardless, thank you for your contributions.

I was planning on throwing on a Blissful Rest for giggles. The building already has Stable Foundation on it. The issue with a Haven is that it requires a catalyst.
 
The haven doesn’t to my knowledge. I could be wrong but I believe only a stable foundation does.

While meaning no disrespect to Fredrick, I would be keen to see an Earth caster preform this ritual. Though I am no longer unsworn and I this do not have any strong feelings about Celestial Magic, I remember the displeasure it caused me. With that in mind, let us not forget our Biata allies and ensure that this ritual not cause them any undue discomfort.

Lifestorm would be happy to provide a Haven of the Living scroll to be cast on the tavern. It does, however, require an "Essence of Innocence" catalyst which we do not currently have.

-Squire Rusty
 
I could try bring a clipping of my little dwarfling's beard or one of her first rocks to see if it works as Essence of Innocence. Worth a shot. She is very cute and innocent. She stays safe at the forge with her Daddy.

-Gertrude the Gruntuled
 
To my knowledge, it would require more of the child's essence than some hair clippings to qualify as a Catalyst. I doubt you would be willing to make such a sacrifice of your own child for this purpose.

I will not be in attendance until Saturday morning, perhaps very late tonight. I will refrain from aligning my High Magic until I have arrived so that I can be ready to perform the rituals if necessary. I will not demand payment, but if there are additional rituals beyond the Merchant's Insight, particularly a more difficult one like Haven of the Living, I would appreciate some degree of remuneration. Unfortunately my House's coin reserves did not come with me when I came to Wayside and I will soon find myself in need of additional funds.

On a related note, there are a few missing pages from my spellbook. Are there any who would be willing to share a complete Earth spellbook that I might copy the missing spells?
