A Jealous Queen

Mevron casually chuckled, not at all feeling offended by Erzu's question. He knew this old fellow was a bit crazy in the head.

"King Erzu, don't forget that you went behind our backs to pocket this powerful treasure. As per our agreement, we sell all the contraband treasures we procure through our Darkwell Trading Union. In return, both your people enjoy a huge share of our profits and resources. So, out of respect for our friendship, Queen Ashpa and I decided to overlook what you did this time. Plus, we are thankful that your people succeeded in bringing such a unique treasure which even my people would have failed to do. But of course, you are always free to try and buy off this treasure during the auction if you want it desperately," Mevron said with a subtle smile.
