Sixth Piece of Eight [Action]

[fightlikeacow]

[At the crossroads near Houses 16 and 27, a small, less-than sturdy kiosk has gone up. It has a big sign which says "Threepwood's Previously Owned Souvenir Emporium". It's full of random objects such as a large stack of books, bottles of alcohol, sets of silverware, a leather jacket, a coffin, and a single porcelain urn which is placed in a corner

[Terra's passing by, needing a break after all that flute practice.]

[fightlikeacow]

Howdy, friend! I have got some great deals for you today!

[esper_flight]

[She pauses, curious.]

...you do? Like what?

[fightlikeacow]

[Talking fast, and gesturing with every word (Imitating, Stan) he picks up a nearby book.]

Looking at you, I can tell you're an intelligent person, and an intelligent person like you must have the most discerning tastes in reading material. Now, I have for you, one copy of The Joy of Hex, the standard in Voodoo recipe books. Someone borrow money from you and then kick the bucket? Need to get revenge against high school bullies? Having guests over and need refreshments? This book has all the answers!

[esper_flight]

Hm....

[She peers at the book with mild interest.]

It sounds...versatile. I don't really know anything about Voodoo, though.

[fightlikeacow]

And this book is the perfect way to get started in the art. The standard for every aspiring... person who does Voodoo. Voodooier?

[esper_flight]

[She shrugs, uncertain about that.]

I suppose it could be an interesting read, but...we don't use money here, so what do you want for it?

[fightlikeacow]

No money... I guess I could take a trade. Anything of equal or greater value will work.

[esper_flight]

Hm...another book? I could probably get one.

[fightlikeacow]

Sure! Another book would work.
