Xantheos: puts on a disguise, complete with fake mustache and thick accent Alright, you ready to witness my masterpiece?
Xantheos: smirks Impressive is just the beginning. Now, watch and learn as I show you how a true master operates.

Xantheos: whispers to Littlerand Stick close to me and remember, we're traders from the East. Keep those eyes sharp and be ready to improvise if needed.
whispering back Understood.
Xantheos: starts mingling with the villagers, engaging in small talk and using his acting skills to maintain the facade Alright, let's sell these goods and gather some info. Remember, keep it casual and act natural.
Xantheos: leans in closer to Littlerand, speaking in hushed tones Don't get too comfortable. We're here to gather intel, not make friends. Keep your ears open for any valuable information.
Xantheos: spots a villager who seems important Now, observe that guy over there. He looks like he's got some influence around here.
Xantheos: whispers urgently I need you to find out who he is and what he's up to. Discreetly, of course. We don't want him to catch on to our act. Got it? Littlerand: Got it.
pulls away slightly Looks like he's heading towards us...
Xantheos: quickly adjusts his disguise and steps forward confidently Perfect timing. Let's initiate our cover story. Villager: Ah, Trader Xan! Where did you find such exquisite goods?
stepping in Yeah, Trader Xan, tell us about these fine wares!
Xantheos: smirks, leaning closer to the villager My goods are from a hidden treasure, known only to a select few. They possess qualities that surpass anything you've ever seen. And I'm willing to share this knowledge... for a price. What do you say, esteemed villager? Interested in becoming one of the enlightened? Villager: eyes widen with curiosity This sounds intriguing. How much will it cost me?
