Merywyn walked into the bazaar ready. She was more at home here than anywhere she had visited thus far. Coming from merchant parent, traveling with a merchant caravan, this was home.

She walked around for a bit, looking at the different wares and items available. She came to one shop and stopped. It had the look of her fathers. Pots and pans hung side by side. Pouches, belts and boots, dry goods and bottles of drink. Suddenly she was homesick, she could hear her father laugh heartily and see her mother sitting in the corner of the shop sewing diligently.

The young girl blinked her eyes a few times and swallowed the lump that had risen to her throat. She walked to the door and opened it, hearing the familiar bell announcing a customer entering the shop.

She looked around a bit and then walked up to the counter. Finding it empty she called out from some help. "Hello? Anyone here?" she called out.

"Yes yes, over here!" An older man said in the shop. He had a greasy look about him, but wore an easy smile and was holding a smaller pan, where food jumped and danced on the hot metal. He used a stick to stir it around, shaking the wok with skill, pouring out the small amount o rice into a bowl for himself. He held a spoon, scooping some of his food into his mouth and swallowing quickly before addressing his customer.

"And what can I get you little lady?"

"Hello sir," Merywyn said, slightly bowing her head. "How are you. You have a wonderful shop here. Homey." The young girl smiled looking around. "I'm in the need of some supplies. First I'll need to replenish my herbs." The girl put her satchel on the counter, ruffling through the numerous pockets on the inside she continued on. "Some Aloe, Arnica, Wormwood if you have some, Oh I guess some calandula, a bit of knitbone and if you have any belladona, I would love to know the price on it." She closed up the satchel and smiled. "I think that's all I need in that department. But I'm also in need of a bit of armor. I'm not sure if you would carry any here, nothing too heavy. Simply something a bit more than the vest I now wear. I have a feeling I'll be needing something a bit, more protective." She laughed weakly and looked at the man. As much as she tried to hide it, it was obvious the girl was out of her element when talking of armor.

"Well, I can't help you with the armor," the shop keeper said aloud. He muttered to himself, turning and taking down some of the jars, leaving some and putting others back. A few he relabeled, a little annoyed that he couldn't read them anymore. "Unless you want a pot or pan my humble cooking shop is somewhat understocked on armor. Lionel's or the other placce across the street would be better. Let's see, aloe, and the belledonna, here we go!"

He placed several jars onto the table. Each of the small glass jars, loving and expensively made in Fallien and brought over to Corone. He undid most of them, checking and frowning a little at them.

"Not much wormwood I'm sorry, and only a little bit of knitbone. Plenty of belladonna though. Everything else is good, I assume you have a pouch or something I can put these into? Also, I would much appreciate if you say how much of each you would like first."
