The auction finally came to an end. Those who won bids smiled while the unlucky ones sighed and resigned themselves to their failures.
Lady Tilly Spoke:
"Thank you all for coming. While not all of us managed to win a bid, we showed the spirit of true buyers, limiting ourselves where we should.
Today is not the end. A year from now, we will hold another auction, so do well to stock up on some spirit stones, because when we meet again, it will be about who has the money and who doesn't.
That said, those who won a bid should come to our offices to pay for their items and collect them." Lady Tilly paused and turned to VIP Room 13...
"Young man, you can come to my office so we can talk about how best to handle the map. I will send it to the Cult of Wisdom, but before that, we need to have a talk."
Kent nodded and turned to his ladies. "Wait for me here, I will be right back."
