You get a great feel for this rapier immediately. It's very nicely balanced, has a well-crafted grip, and seems perfectly new. Getting it for twenty gold, you think, is a STEAL.
I do not have much gold on me, but I have some things I may be able to trade. draws shortswords. Elven shortswords. Fifteen gold a piece. I will give you both shortswords for the rapier.
@bobble makes a face, realising that this is not likely to go well and he looks expectantly over to see if the halfling is busy. (Elven) "Sir halfling?"
"Oh, of course! There are two very good inns in town. The Briar and Rose, and the Drunken Dragon." He points out the door. "Both down that way, you can't miss them."
It's now getting a little bit later, so the sun is starting to drift down. The streets are very quiet and the townspeople have mostly dispersed to their homes.
