“Welcome!” He began. “What brings you to this lovely city? Adventure? Wealth? Or some grand aspirations to elevate your place in society?”
Elend lets a beaming grin break across my face, and straightens his shoulders. "My good gentlemen! Fair greetings to you. I must say, you're quite the guesser, as grand aspirations are indeed what brings me here today." Elend pauses, briefly. His smile flickers, but quickly returns, and an edge of wariness creeps into his tone. "I'm very happy to see such a friendly face in an unfamiliar city. Truly, I wish only make a name for myself here. But... what are you selling? And for your help, what would you ask of me? I have little to give."
