Ah, another's post yesterday made me think of something. There is a common supply cache around here, is there not? I have no need to request of anything, but I did have a question for those that run it. Or, a proposition perhaps. I am a banker and businessman by birth inheritance and am highly trained and skilled with the workings of such a profession. I realize this is not exactly the same, but if you need a helping hand with keeping up with the supplies and rationing them out--well, that's where being a banker comes in handy. [He chuckles lightly.] I can keep my numbers quite well. I can help with records and the like.

[As if he doesn't volunteer/do enough crap around here, now he's going off and volunteering for more. Oi. Well, anyway, maybe he just wanted to do something familiar for a change. His new trips out into hunting are nice and all but he has to admit (at least to himself) that he misses his less adventurous duties, too. Besides that, it was something (else) he inherited from his father and he wanted to continue it even if it was in some strange place and not quite the same.

...

Or maybe he just needed another hobby. Anyway...]

I did think of something I can ask all of Discedo, including the supply cache since it's an item: does anyone have a scacchi--eschec...ches?--set? Or, perhaps, good at wood-work? Whittling? And would be willing to trade.

Does anybody know how to play the "King's Game"?

Just curious for my own personal aesthetic reasons. Beggars can't be choosers but I'd still prefer certain items over others. I don't need anything that will make a person sick after all. Wood and metal should do well enough though as long as its not terribly brittle or rusted. I would appreciate the effort.

Ammunition for what? [So he can go find it. But damn if he might get it wrong at first if its bullets. Because. You know.]

Heh, I've had more than enough time in this set to know what the hell I'm doing. Most of the wood I've found is worthless. Rotten. Not the best solution for making a set, so I derived a substitution.

A handgun.

Ah, well. I guess I shall just have to wait and see.

[You'll probably get the wrong caliber with that short description. Then again, you might have gotten the wrong caliber with a precise description as well considering he's only just now learning anything about guns.] Very well. I can get these things.

[And you will get the most bizarre looking chess set, so it's all good.]

Excellent. t ≈ 2 weeks.

[Oh joy~. Well, he'll be amused at least. Hopefully.]

I'll have your supplies ready. Thank you.
