Assault within the Crafters Union.

[Banedon]

* With vision clearing, Banedon awoke to find himself lying on the floor of the Crafter Union, a victim of an attack by two unknown assailants. Fighting the pain in his body, he struggles to a seated postion in the nearby chair, before once again passing out from the pain ...

Regaining conscious took some time, but nevertheless his old  training still served him, and his body began to fight the effects. Sufficiently recoved Banedon takes stock of his belongings, sure enough he was 200 Gold less than he should have had. At this, he takes a quick walk to a secret compartment within the confines of the Union room, within this compartment lies a Sword, one that Banedon believed he would never again wield.

Wrapping his hand around the hilt, he playfully swings the sword, his arms having never forgotten the feel of it. With a snarl, he recalls the events leading to him being attacked. *

An unidentified customer who having agreed a price of 2000 Gold for his stock, sought to change the price to 1800 upon completion, claiming the delay was unacceptable. Banedon refused to accept the new price, as a contract was binding.

On hearing the refusal, the customer made threats that suggested physical harm both to Banedon, the Union and its Staff if the payment was not accepted, all the while his companion was glaring at Banedon in a threatening manner.
Call it foolish bravado, but Banedon refused again the price, telling the pair to "eat shit" claiming he would never be bullied by the likes of these people.

An assault entailed, with Banedon being beaten badly, but still conscious...

Once again the reduced payment was offered, insisting more pain would follow if it was not accepted. Despite the fact his mouth tasted of blood, Banedon once again uttered the words " Eat Shit ".

Expecting death, Banedon readied himself for another attack, instead the customer for no apparent reason chose to pay the full agreed rate.
On reciept of the correct payment, Banedon handed over the herbs, and watched the customer and his companion head for the door.

As they were leaving, Banedon turned round to put the gold in the chest, then realised his mistake as the same incantation was being sounded. Darkness overcame Banedon shortly after....

* Shaking the images from his mind, he once again takes stock of the situation. He had been robbed of 200 Gold, his ego and pride dented. With a blood curdling scream, he swings his sword, taking out his anger on a chair, splitting it from top to botton *
