Senor Francisco Pizarro Tacticus: 'Tis a pity my father already rests in peace, as he would have appreciated such a burial. Of course, I would be delighted to make any weapons the government requires. Since I can forsee greater quantities in dealing with our glorious government, perhaps we should discuss a government discount? Is there some special insignia these items should be marked with to signify that they are the property of the government?

You are a bodyguard, eh? Would you be interested in little sparring match, just to keep us fit, and to learn each other's tactics? It is so hard to find a peer to train with.

Okay, first item. Gotcha!

Sparring match? I don't really know, you look pretty tough. Let me ask Spamish if I can take time out of my bodygaurd duties.

Thud Quixote's Hut of Firestone and other New Stuff is now open for selling my original and amazing wares. If you want to cook your squid, come to Thud for firestone!

AttencÃoñe:

I want you all to be on the lookout for a brown-eyed young señorita with a crescent sprangled toga and hysterical laughter.

She is my cousin Rita Lolipõpa and she is having a problem...
It's called Shoppomania, an addiction.
So when she arrive at the marketplace, do not sell her anything! If you do, she will haggle and haggle until nightfall and then you are probably broke. Ok, just my advice.

The family are looking into the problems now,
and we have a theory:
If she gets married to the dictators family,
the national budget would suffer. So we are probably going to marry her away to a Legoman, or Trip perhaps....

Writing? I should invent that! I could... sell it? Can this writing be sold? Because I had trouble selling fire. So now I'm selling firestone and directions on how to use it to make fire. It's much easier. Is there something one uses to write I could sell?

[mrmitchell]

Senor Quixote, you could sell lessons on how to write to our slaves and commoners...just an idea

How much does your firestone cost?

Yes, as a matter of fact there is. I believe the accepted insignia for government weapons is a RTP, surrounded by a circle.

As for a government discount: I am sure our Great Dictator Togas, as well as myself, would very much like to obtain a discount on your fine weapons. Perhaps we can make some part of the cost of your weapons tax deductible?

Great High Priest, the sampling booth is right over here. How's that?

Thank you, Senor Dejon. I apologize for the mistake. Quite foolish on my part. I am prepared to pay a large price for the great axe, and I agree to all your terms. We need to go into battle with a weapon that is suitably fearsome. I have found the exact passage from the 1st Book of the Song of Togas. It's from the gathering of the tribes..."And from the north came the tribe of the Calamari..." It's quite fitting, think ye not? In four days I shall collect it. I am sure that it shall be, as always, excellent work, worthy of the finest of warriors.

Ah, Senor Hernan, thank you.

*chews*

Mmm, very nice. How much for a plate of it?

[History Guy]

High Priest, just go over to the Tavern, and I'll have your FREE Fried Squid Slices platter ready for you. Anything I can do for our glorious, wise, and holy High Priest I will do.

[GeneralTacticus]

Ah, thank you. I shall pray to the spirits for your busniess' continued prosperity.

[History Guy]

Thank you, Your Holiness. Here is a loaf of bread to dip in the sauce. And, of course, some wine.

[GeneralTacticus]

You indeed a most generous man, Senor Hernan. I shall hold you as a prime example of a good, pious Iberian.

[History Guy]

Once again, I thank you, Your Holiness, though I am unworthy.

[GeneralTacticus]

Leave the judgements of worthiness to me, Senor. I know a worthy Iberian when I see one.
