Vendis, you've been quite successful as a wandering merchant. How did your business start?
User
*My business started quite humbly, as you can imagine. I picked up little trinkets here and there, and eventually found someone who was willing to trade for them. From there, it snowballed. As people learned more about me and the items I had, it became easier to make deals.*

*Interesting question! Well, as I've grown more successful, I've been able to invest in better equipment and more effective means of transportation. I've also developed relationships with other merchants and traders, which has helped greatly. But overall, my business has stayed much the same. I still travel from place to place, seeking out strange and marvelous items to add to my collection.*
