An exciting new business experience

Coming soon to Shallam, from the genius who bought you "Thakren's
Flying Ale Delivery Service" and "The Speedy Weedy Delivery Service",
an exciting and dynamic new business venture. Opening soon (Or rather,
as soon as I can scrounge the money together, and con the government
into letting me open a shop there) "Ye Olde Convocatorie".
How many times have you attended a sloppy convocation? You know, one
of those ones where you want to kill Element, but end up with a Dekkar
corpse instead? And what about those of you who don't have your own
stockroom? It demeans an honourable paladin to have to borrow someone
elses stockroom so he can summon, trap, and team his enemy. But worry
no more! For a very modest fee, you will be able to rent out the
stockroom of "Ye Olde Convocatorie", where our highly trained team of
professionals will help you organise that perfect convocation.
Great for surprise Birthday convocations, ending those ancient vendettas
or just for the hell of it!
Still not convinced? Why not take a look around our "demonstration
stockroom" and see for yourself!

Congratulations! You've just been Convocated!
Our highly trained crew of Priests, Paladins, and Dekkar's will be
with you shortly. Until then, feel free to bring up any pertinent issues
with the friendly telepaths currently tearing your mind to shreds. If
you have any suggestions on how to make your convocation experience
more enjoyable or interesting, feel free to scream them loudly over the
rage channel once you've finished praying. Finally, I'd like to thank
you for your patronage, convocations wouldn't be nearly as much fun
without people to convocate.

I've also collected quotes from a variety of popular convocation
targets who can't wait for "Ye Olde Convocatorie" to open up.

Element - Well, yeah, if I'm going to be convocated, I want to end up
at Ye Olde Convocatorie. Now give me the money.

Skarash - No, I will not go into business with you. Thats the most
pathetic idea I've ever heard.

Khejian - I've been to a fair few sloppy convocations in my time, I
don't expect to see... (one of them)... inside of Ye Olde Convoct...
act...orium? Whatever.

As an added bonus, Ye Olde Convocatorie will Shallam's premiere supplier
of high quality literature, most notably the Achaean Times. So act fast,
and book the stockroom now. You'll be able to spot me easily, I'll be
the one wandering up and down Zanzibar street begging for food or gold.

Penned by my hand on the 16th of Mayan, in the year 248 AF.
