"So, you would like to have your own members do the sales for the city, and then we're free to have the merchants send the rest of the region goods as they see fit?
At the risk of them being accosted by those arrogant disciples, naturally.
But that's part of their business model, I'm sure. Our own members who are making trips to sell goods are well enough protected that we don't worry about them too much. However, we don't do a lot of travelling ourselves.
We leave that to the New Home, and to our customers."
The Elder gave him an understanding nod. "I wouldn't expect you to. Craftsmen need their tools and workspace, it's not easy for them to go anywhere. That's one of the great weaknesses of the Crafting Guilds, as they need to get all the supplies to one location, so they need a wide network of connections.
Your work with the Blue Elves will help with that, but I hear that you're also working with the Yizimon Clan to obtain metals."
