Ardent Artificing

As is sometimes the way in the artificer's trade, pieces that are wrought with love and care do not reach the hands they are intended for, whether it be through departure of the continent, death, or an agreement not met. That does not mean it is the end for a creation.

The proprietor of Ardent Artificing, Katrin Weiss, presents just such a piece for consideration for the discerning consumer. A work currently without a wielder.

The creator is available to talk pricing to those willing. And, as is the shop's creed, it may go to an ambitious cause for a smaller fee. 

(Young students from Starfall Academy, where the proprietor currently teaches, are especially encouraged to make a case and prove their mettle for the discounted price)

(The proprietor also warns that mugging her or death threats will not work. Many have tried. She reminds anyone so brazen as to consider it that this is not her first rodeo and, furthermore, you are not that special)

The Ardent Artificer is now officially open for business post-renovations, and the proprietor spreads news far and wide where she's able. Not that it seems to have stopped her wanderings. This news, however, is secondary to another announcement:

 

Ardent Artificing's proprietor, Katrin Weiss, officially announces a search for an apprentice and/or a soul to offer patronage to; seeking young persons that have a desire for creation, craft, or large dreams, the Artificer-In-Residence seeks to pass on monetary, material, and other support to a member of the next generation. 

  

Willing applicants of any background, any city, any faith are encouraged to seek out Katrin Weiss. Either in her ramblings, at her workshop, at the Starfall Academy, or to schedule a meeting by letter.

Quote:If all of you keep bringing me this run-of -the-mill bullshit to work on, with my already limited time, I'm going to start charging each and every one of you extra for either A) wasting my time or B) boring me to death.

If you got the stones to knock on my door, it had better be good, you'd better have coin, or, preferably, both.
