Elevation: Uther "The Old" Grimlee

[Askuzai 505]

 

 

          A pleasant day it was in the Earldom of Nordengrad. Then suddenly a bellow of beautiful horns blew out from the temple in a ceremonial manner. An announcement was to be made of grandiose fashion, such was the tradition of the faith.

 

          “People of Nordengrad!” shouts a man decorated in the ceremonial robes of red, The Patriarch of the Red Faith. “We have a new paragon to elevate to a position of holiness! Uther “The Old” Grimlee, bless his soul! For he is the sower of seeds and the one who toils laboriously to give us great harvest year after year!” Rae raised his arms in a grandiose fashion as he exclaimed the good news of a hero’s elevation to greatness. “May you all be blessed by the father’s divine radiance this day!” Rae shouted a final time in his strangely clear accent before he headed back inside to go about his daily duties tending the flames.

Delia of Hightree claps politely, smiling at the elevation of Uther. "Now perhaps Ulric will stop asking me incessantly."

Thoromir nods, heading over the Temple to speak to the Patriarch concerning this recent elevation

Edlynn whips her head around as she attempts to find the source of the voice and claps her hands together excitedly. "A new paragon!" she beams, glancing around the square gleefully. The small child twirls a strand of greasy hair around two fingers in a thoughtful fashion. "Sounds like a good man," she nods to herself.

"Yes..." Billy says trying to convince other people to buy his bread to sell to other people in an elaborate triangle scheme. 

"Now I am the only bread seller in all of Nordengrad..." Billy then cackles like one would assume Gollum from lord of the rings would.
Billy looks back to the crowd of people and approaches a lone man, "Excuse me sir, I've got a business opportunity that you can't refuse."
The man looks back blankly "I'm sorry sir... I'm not a businessman, I'm just a humble miner."
Billy flashes the man a sparkly smile "Well it's the easiest thing in the world, You just buy this bread from me for 5 marks, and then you sell the bread to other people at 6 marks, boom easy profit!"
The man thinks for a moment "Hmm, that does seem pretty easy, but I don't know, I'm not a very good salesman."
Billy gives a fake light-hearted laugh "You don't need to be, you just have to explain to them how easy it is for them to make money, if you sell the bread to them for 6 marks and they sell the bread on for 7 marks then they will be making a profit!" Billy exclaims "See, simple!"
The man scratches his head trying to do the math on his fingers, "Hmm, that does make sense." He would say a little confused
Billy pats the man on the back "I can see you are a little confused so let me make the offer a little better, I'll sell you the bread for 6 marks, and then you can sell it to more people for 7 marks, that way you'll be making an even bigger profit!"
The man smiles "Wow, that is a deal!" he says reaching into his pocket to pull out a few marks.
"Not so fast" billy says stopping him, "There is a minimum amount of bread I have to sell to you, if I sell you less I have to charge you more."
"Well, how much do I have to buy?" The man says counting out his marks, billy counting them as well over the man's shoulder.
"You will have to buy at least a dozen loaves, but if you buy my whole cart the price is drastically reduced, what a deal right!"
"That is a pretty good deal" The man says. "But i'm not sure I've got enough money."
Billy looks over his shoulder and see a guard looking his way and beginning to walk over.
"It looks like you have exactly the right amount!" Billy says grabbing the marks from the man.
"Uh... oh, okay, how fortunate!" the man says confused at first but happy nonetheless .
"Hey you!" The guard says confronting billy, "You're not selling this bread here are you!" pointing to the cartload of bread.
"No my good man, This cart belongs to this gentleman here!" billy says pointing back to the man he just sold the cart to.
"You got a merchants license to sell that bread?" the guard says leaning in towards the man, his hand resting on the pommel of his sword uneasily. 
"What, no, I just..." The mans voice sort of trails off as he doesn't really understand what is happening.
"If you got no license, then you're gonna have to come with me!" The guard says hauling the man off to jail.
Billy looks around and approaches another man "Excuse me sir, I've got a business opportunity for you."

Would take his axe back from Uther Grimlee as he stepped into the Hall of the Father, a smile across his face as they embraced, a reunion of old faces.

 

"It is good to finally have you with us Brother Uther.. shall we begin."
