Erlina and Carrion introduced themselves to Eduard and who they were to Rasmus. Erlina had no issue with a commoner since she was also one, and she didn't discriminate against people at all. Carrion, on the other hand, found Eduard a bit underwhelming since he was just a small merchant from an unknown village.
Rasmus told them about his plan to Erlina and Carrion that he was going to use Eduard as the face of the new trading company. They both were skeptical of that idea, but once Eduard showed his intelligence about business and knew how to handle merchants and clients, they changed their minds.
"Aren't you planning to make your own shipping company? Who will be handling that? I don't think Eduard can handle both of them," Erlina crossed her legs and grabbed her cup of tea. "I'm sure you're not planning to put your face at the front of the company either," she added and took a sip of her tea.
