Destination Mystara!: Shop Stromness!

As of late I have had the wonderful pleasure of ordering some goods from the Stromness Smithy and let me say the results were far better than expected!

Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

The Absalon Shipping & Trade Co. is hosting their next Bazaar at the end of the week. Ships can already be seen on the horizon, steering towards the Port of Mystara.

Are you one of the fellow tradesmen or crafters who would like to show off your wares and skills? Do you have something special to advertise or would you like to spare some coin and simple trade your own stuff for the wares you need? Visit the Bazaar and bargain for the best price or wares!

Or are you one who’s interested in one of the businesses for sale? Currently the ‘Bound to Please Bookshoppe’, ‘Mercentile General Store’, ‘Hoppy Ending Brewery’ at Stromness town and the ‘Vanya Sulie Tavern’ at the Elven town is up for sale. Don’t miss your chance to stop by, discover which wholesale wares Absalon could ship in for those businesses and maybe you will be able to get to know the Pawn Shop owner! I heard rumours he’s helping when the need for coin arises.

Absalon will welcome you all. For getting a table or cart set up at the Bazaar to set up your wares or advertisements, contact Admiral Redy at the docks near Stromness.

(OOC info: Absalon Bazaar will be held on Friday 9th May at 10 am slt and again at 7.30 pm slt.

Please note: The named businesses, while IC-ly for sale, need to be apped for OOC-ly. Only when you are chosen as leader you will be able to buy the business IC-ly. If you are interested in one of the businesses, please look here for further info and links for the applications http://realmofmystara.com/rp-info/getting-involved/how-to-become-a-leader-in-mystara

Businesses are Back at the Bazaar!

Absalon Shipping & Trade Co. is once again hosting one of their gorgeous Bazaars this Friday in the early morning and late evening (May 10th at 10:00am and 7:30pm SLT). Several businesses will peddle their specialties and advertise their services– including jobs! Don’t miss this chance to:

• Feel through fine fabrics with the new Stitch in Time owner, Anja Rosenthal (lalita18.resident)
• Try the Smoke & Mirrors fine blends and treats so sinful they might be illegal (fortunately, the Bazaar is just outside the Stromenss flags!)
• See the beautiful new creations from the Elven Glassblower, newly lead by Nénmacil Vanafîndön (vanafindon.resident)
• Explore the rumors that the Magic Shoppe sells more than just potions and trinkets
• Check out if it’s true that the blacksmiths can bend any metal they please with freshly appointed Mystara Smithing Co. Owner, Sarif O’Hara (drewvictus.resident)

Everyone is invited to come! Enjoy a day full of shopping and excitement at the docks just down the hill from Stromness Village. And should you have a little one and don’t know where to stick them while fighting for prices or flirting with sailors, the lovely Miss Triana is offering the service of the Orphanage as well!

We look forward to seeing you!
