Another article from the mysterious ‘Kishi’ has made it’s way to our press, this time featuring the successful Charity Auction held by the Mercantile of Stromness Village. It also contains a bit more than observations, with this kiss having a bit of bite.
The town hall came alive in a recent night (Thursday the 20th) with excited clatter as everyone awaited. A single gorgeous woman stood bravely at the front of the room. “Welcome everyone to the Mercantile Charity Auction! Gather your coin purses and your currencys. Jump, scream, sing, or clamber your number. Highest bidder wins! Happy biddings to all and may the odds be ever, in your favor. The infirmary and bookstore appreciate your patronage. Also, I am Raine. Owner of the Mercantile… Let the biding begin!” She declared and the room only erupted further into anticipation!
The massive list of items that had obtained was astounding! Did people really care so much to aid the book store and infirmary or was their a great deal of greed present? I could only peer about the room half expecting a patron of Greed to be feasting upon their sins growing ever stronger! It took but a moment for many of the bids to escalate to the cost of not just months but years of food and housing! It was unbelievable the amount of gold people were throwing out in droves to purchase material items, as splendid as they are!
