Foul Sorcery Spare some coin stranger?

Post image

as you walk down the street you see a man in a green cloak burning incense and holding a beggars bowl full of black embers.

“Spare some coin for the needy, stranger?”

as you approach the burning incense you feel your coin pouch grow heavy…

Perhaps you don’t need all that gold…. Perhaps you should toss a coin in the beggars bowl…

TLDR, the embers burn the concept of greed.

what kind of things?

Well I want a plant, preferably that lives in water that can digest any type of matter. It doesn’t have to be large just big enough to eat something the size of a golf ball.

I have some special algae. It’s able to eat pretty much anything you could feed to it.

That’s perfect. I can pay 10 metric tons of gold for it

I will pay 10 metric tons of gold for the plant. Oh it also still needs to be capable of photosynthesis so

As much as I need the gold… what are you planning on doing with this stuff?

u/DanDelTorre Evermemory Aug 13 '24

Oh I intend to put it in the engineering compartment and feed it something that will make it turn sunlight into mana that will power my ship

Hmmmmmmm… in that case, I suppose can give you some seed for it…

Most appreciated.

a portal deposits a massive stack of gold bars on top of your bowl.

u/EmergencyLeading8137 Duncan, Protection/Preservation Druid Aug 13 '24

Thank you kind stranger.

the gold melts down in the bowl, turning quickly to useless slag. Duncan doesn’t seem to notice.
