Memoria watched as a man and woman entered into the usually quiet Executioner's Block. She was so accustomed to the silence and it seemed these people were as well. They went about their business, checking out the weapons, glancing at certain items that didn't catch their fancy and lingering about on other ones that looked far more interesting. Memoria took notice that Valorius, a tall dark-haired thing, was specifically interested in guns. In fact, he started disassembling things on the shelf and creating what suited him. Memoria lifted a finger in protest, wanting to tell Valorius that this was not a Build-A-Gun Workshop, but decided against it. After all, a man who knew his guns was not one to trifle with.

As if reading her thoughts, Valorius dropped a bag of gold on the table that was obviously full of coin. She then shrugged her shoulders and returned to the book she was reading while the two continued to search about. Deep into her reading, Memoria was caught off-guard when suddenly a bright flash lit up the room. She lifted her head, looking to the wall wondering if the gun Valorius had just constructed had back-fired on him. Instead, a tome on the shelf reacted to him, setting off some sort of flare. A brow rose in question, but it lowered as he came towards the front desk with his purchases.

"It'll be a pistol," Memoria said. "That book seemed to sure take a liking to you."

Behind Valorius, as Memoria exchanged gold with him, Ameerah sighed as if slightly irritated or disappointed. Nevertheless, she reluctantly came to the front desk with some purchases of her own. Taking Ameerah's payment as well, Memoria gestured to the walls with a light flick of her wrist.

"I apologize for the lack of selection. With the entire city rebuilding, some of the forges have been shut down and so we're out of stock," Memoria said. "We'll be getting new and more exciting stuff in soon."

Before they left, Memoria searched in the back handing and came back out holding a medium-sized box in her hands. She pushed it over the counter towards Valorius and nodded.

"This is all the rounds we have at the moment."

Once the transactions were complete and Valorius and Ammerah had left the shop, another man, Madrin, entered and headed immediately towards the display of two-handed swords. Memoria eyed him, noting he certainly looked like a roughened man who could swing around a two-handed sword just fine. Most people who tried to buy and use two-handed swords end up falling on their asses, much to her amusement.

When he was finished, Madrin took his sword up to the counter and laid it down. Memoria exchanged gold with him and smiled faintly, pointing to the sheath that the sword was in. On it was a wolf surrounded by symbols that represented Aleris' four gods.

"Nice sword you found. Enjoy it."

Once he had left the store, Memoria returned to her book ever waiting for the next person that entered.
