Anit-Pirate Insurance
The Bard Gabriel Majere has returned from his visit to court bearing news.
The Privateers of King Gregory have been given the sanction to sell:
Anti- Pirate Insurance!
This is how it works:
You can make one fee of all your gold now,
This will insure, that you won’t have any when they rob you later.
We under stand that all your gold & silver now maybe a bit much.
So instead, a second plan:
You can give us a down payment of 10 gold pieces
Which will insure that, it will be 1o gold less they take from you when we catch you later.
