[SIZE=24]Steel sets out a marble podium, complete with a glass bubble-lid. On the podium he lays a round pillow, and on the pillow he lays two rings, each sparkling, each wreaking of magic. Both rings are clearly of rare craftsmanship, exquisite to behold, golden-banded and set with gems. The first is set with an emerald, square and thick. The second is set with a small red stone, and etched with runes.[/SIZE][/FONT]
"I've owned both these items for decades, and personally used the magic within to great effect in numerous adventures across the continents. The emerald ring I found in the Thunder Peaks, and I have a feeling it is of old dwarvish or elven make. The rune-covered ring is definitely of old dwarvish make, though it was discovered in the Deep. I'd like to open the bidding for each of these items at seventy-five (75) thousand True. Do I have any takers?"
