*On a busy Friday afternoon with commoners and traders bustling outside the Townhall, Smedly makes his way through the crowd, stands on tip-toes and pins a poster to the Civilian board. He then turns and gives a man in the crowd a nod*
Random Bystander: *Points at the poster in amazement* "Hey everyone look! A new shop has just opened in the Townhall! A shop specialising in tinkerable items? Just what Cove needs! But pray tell how are we supposed to place our orders?"
Smedly Herbwood: *Clears his throat and tries to speak above the general commotion of the crowd* "If ye int'rested in buyin' any o' me wares ye can either find me in th'shop, slip a personal message under me door or send me a note by pigeon like with ye order."
Random Bystander: "Gee thanks Mister Herbwood, I'll go home and write up an order straight away and get ALL of my friends to buy some of your... *Seems to be reading something from his palm* ...'custom made, fine gemstone jewelry'."
*Smedly makes his way back through the crowd of people, slipping a small pouch of coins into the hand of the random bystander as he passes him, and mumbling "Ye could o' at least tried to make a half-arsed effort o' soundin' convincin'! Moonglow're trainin' gorillas t'give better speeches!"*
