Part 7: Goon Playthrough - Part 7

Hahaha, I wouldn't have guessed that you'd say such a thing.


So, 150 is fine?


Let's meet in the middle. How about 175?


Sounds good to me. Here's your pay.


You drive a hard bargain, old friend. You really have the makings of being a great merchant.

That wasn't a very hard bargain, but if you say so, buddy.


Thank you!


I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but you're really not so different from Carmosa.


What? What are you talking about?


You tried to get me to lower the price, even though I'm your friend.


So? That doesn't mean I'm like Carmosa! That woman is cruel and manipulative!


I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that. But you only see one side of Carmosa. Her life isn't easy, either. She's a single woman working to keep her house from falling apart. It's not an easy job, but she's very good at it. That takes a lot of hard work and sacrifice. I think you're a better person than she is, but you both have the same spark. You're clever, and you know what you want. You'd be a good leader.


I suppose you have a point. I never thought about Carmosa like that before...


People aren't simply good or bad, and those who do bad things usually have a reason for it.


You really are a wise man, Tobias. I've always liked that about you. I'm happy I could see you again.


The pleasure was all mine. I hope that you come again soon.


I'll do my best. Until the next time we meet, then.


Oh, I almost forgot!


What is it?


Please tell Carmosa that I'll fulfill my part of the deal soon, and she should expect my representative to come by sometime tonight.


Sure, I'll let her know.


Thank you.


Oh, and by the way: I had no idea you have 'your representatives' nowadays.


It comes with the trade, I guess. Start throwing coin around and suddenly, you find yourself surrounded with people eager to run errands for you.


Coin, you say? And I thought it had more to do with your magnetic personality?




Oh, people do tend to underestimate the pain caused by fast-flying cutlery.


There was a time in my life when I was forced to eat with my hands, but I prefer not to speak about it.

It may seem dumb, but having seen (and done) dork flirting in the wild, this scene is pretty much spot-on.


Haha! Oh, I've missed our talks, Tobias.


Me too, Cinders! Hope I'll see you again soon!


I hope so too. Take care, friend.




And I even have an extra 25 sovereigns for myself! I could stop by the tavern and treat myself with this money.
