"Ah, yes," Dr. Sabbatine says. "The Empress has authorized me to permit the transfer of one Byzantine Army first aid kit for every one thousand solidi worth of treasure transferred out of your world."

"What?" Alexius cries. "That's outrageous! It's an overgrown fungal hellscape out here! I turned green!"

"And I'm sorry you're green, Alexius," the doctor says. "But the Empress has been quite strict with me. She will only permit small transfers and always from your world first. For every one thousand solidi, to be tabulated by an independent accountant, I am permitted to transfer one first aid kit or…one bullet."

"One bullet!" Alexius screams. He counts on his fingers. "I should be able to keep myself in ammunition, but what about Crowchar?"

"You could share," Sabbatine offers.

"You could share! Your side has all the bullets!"

Checking your modest treasure hoard, you realize that's all you can get for now.
