Dearest loyal customers, friends, and enemies,

I will be gone for a few Achaean years, stopping in periodically to check messages and such. I shall tonight try to stock my shop to fullness so that none of you are wanting for armor :-}

And I'll miss all of you. Okay, I'll miss most of you. Anyway, everyone stay warm in the forests, and keep your boots dry!
