Searching for Materials was created by Mantel (sigma-j)
I have been informed of a special kind of silk which affords protection that rivals that of the finest of Mithril armour, as well as other kinds of protective fabrics and cloth that may be of some use to me. One such material, I believe, was called Shadowsilk. The name of the second escaped the mind of my informant Smith. I am hoping to commission such a Creation some day in the future, and would like to begin gathering the material sooner rather than later.

If anyone has any information on how I might obtain such materials, any other information on similar materials and how they work, or perhaps are in possession of any such material, please do not hesitate contact me by missive. I can be reached via the Mages' Guildhall in Travance Proper.

I have, and will curate an amount of gold to be spent in leisure for this project. I strive to be exceptionally loyal and generous to those I do business with, and respect those of all Trades and Crafts. Should you be in need of payment in form other than gold, please also do not hesitate to ask. I am a proponent of all forms of willing service and barter, as well as traditional transaction via the Baronial currencies.

Thank you for your assistance.

In Willing Service,

SS Billlliam,

How much, if I might ask? I've recently come into a bit of coin and I wouldn't mind helping out Mantel.

I believe I bought it at 150 gold a bundle. Would be willing to sell it at 100 but willing to negotiate down for the right reasons or person. I need to check my supplies to see how much I have

If any one else has Venium, I'll gladly buy it for a premium price. Or Mantel, if you want to make some money off that cloth, I will buy it from you or trade for some other items.

I could use such a material as well. I would happily pay above market price for such a thing if only to get out of my plates.

I thought that sounded like Venium as well, however if anyone turns up anything about "shadowsilk" I would love to procure some.

I too am seeking bolts of this cloth, I have seen it in person from Elias and I can attest to it's grandeur. This material would help make an excellent addition to my wardrobe as well as offer protection while I am on the battlefield healing those who have fallen.

Chenjing,

You honor and surprise me with your generosity. We must talk the next moon I return to Proper.


M. Billliamm

I am glad to hear that at least someone possesses such material, though I have not heard anything about Venium Cloth. Do you happen to understand its specific properties?

I will begin saving an amount of coin for this purpose immediately, now that I understand the cost that I will be incurring for this venture. Thank you, honorable [strike]Knight.[/strike] friend.


All else,

I am not of priority in this search, and I am a fan of selling to the best buyer. If others would pay more, or present themselves as more deserving of the material than I, then by all means, do provide the most proper consumer with the material as you see fit.

I am ney a smith but it would take about the same amount of bundles sewn into a shirt covering yer whole torso. It would help turn blows aside the cloth seems resistant to wear and tears.

Thank you, [strike]Ser[/strike]M. Billliamm. This is absolutely encouraging!

It seems that Guildmaster Ashby has outbid me, and I believe M. Kantaris, as an acclaimed Healer, is more deserving of your cloth than I. Please sell to your conscience.

I am willing to pay any amount of money for Shadowsilk.

Also: M. Mantel Warrane, Billiam is not a knight. Please do not refer to him as such. I do not wish to see you get in trouble for that mistake. Thank you.

Ser Siefer,

Thank you for correcting me.

I am curious, now that another has mentioned Shadowsilk, what other such materials exist. This excites, even when I am clearly outbid.

I hope the materials find you well, and that they are used in creating something truly remarkable.
