You've been expelled from House Hlaalu. You must make amends.

I hope Gildran wasn't too difficult to reason with.

Good. Here's your cut.

Recount the gold. It's not 1500 drakes yet.

Then be on your way.

Gildran's dead? Anyway, the money is still your responsibility. Either you took so long the old mer kicked the bucket before he could pay, or you've been too drastic with your methods. I'll be waiting for the gold, %PCRank.

I don't care where the money comes from, %PCRank. Whether you follow Gildran's proposal is up to you, and how much you value your time.

Do you have the money?

Gildran Dovolas is the former foreman of the Shipal-Sharai mine. We used to be on good terms back when the pit was still running. He always paid his dues promptly. However, while that incompetent was trying to keep the mine solvent, he fell 1500 drakes in debt to me. It's high time that he returns what he owes. I think he works for the caravanserai now. Look for him near the mine entrance, and don't accept any excuses from him.

You've settled the matter for me. Thank you, %PCName.

As I said, the Shipal-Sharai mine is an option, but you risk encountering the Camonna Tong. Then there's Nadin mine, a safer alternative. It could have some prospectors trying their luck, but that's about it. It's southeast of here on top of the canyon. If you see a farm with a netch ranch, walk a short distance westwards.

Thank you. If you're still planning on collecting the money, you could try selling sapphires. The Shipal-Sharai mine has dried up, but there might be just enough remaining to get the septims you need. I must warn you that it's occupied by the Camonna Tong. If that's too risky for you, you could try the Nadin mine just southeast of here. It's on top of the canyon and west of the farm with the netch ranch. A much safer option.

I told you, I can't pay when I have no gold. Are you planning to ambush me and sell off my corpse? Listen, you could try collecting the gold by selling sapphires. The Shipal-Sharai mine has dried up, but there might be just enough remaining to get the septims you need. I must warn you that it's occupied by the Camonna Tong. If that's too risky for you, you could try the Nadin mine just southeast of here. It's on top of the canyon and west of the farm with the netch ranch. A much safer option.

Llaros sends you to squeeze me fot the little money I have? Typical. Gold's always been where Samalsi's loyalties lie. I hate to disappoint him, but while he's relaxing in his manor, the people of this town are getting poorer and poorer. I have no means to repay my debt. He may be too out of touch to see it, but I hope you can understand, %PCClass.
