I have posted some new Orders for the smiths and I still have some deliveries to make. @ Gibble - I need to see you asap for those stones. The customer is getting anxious. Also, I'd like to ask for some help with the mining orders. G...

Greetings all! I want to encourage all members to come up with ideas for developing the Midlands "New Haven Project". I have plenty and I'll run a few of them by you for input and ideas. One rule though, the idea must be profitable somehow. We won't build something if it serves no purpose....

At our regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, we discussed 'protection' for the 'suburbs' of Trollsbane. As they develop and people move out to these 'suburbs' in the 'County' of Trollsbane, they will need protection and people to uphold the Law. The Town Guard (or those acting as Guards) can't...

As I'm baking these Pies and Cakes, it gives me some time to think about things too. Now that all the shares are sold, we can talk about the expected 'dividends' at the end of Ushos. All Shareholders have to do is submit a list of prices for ten goods in their craft and then sit back and watch the p...

Our meeting today was a relative success. We had several members show up and even a special guest, the Governor of Trollsbane. The meeting began with a 'promotion' of Talathiel to full member status. She has done a lot of work for us, and has proven to be loyal and reliable. Welcome Talathiel! Secon...

Before this evening's mishaps, I had made a business deal with the Governor and have offered the City of Trollsbane 100 Silvers in prepaid Credit as well as invested 3 Gold. The details will be forthcoming but I believe everyone will be overjoyed about it.

One member pointed out that we would probably need to have a minimum 'deposit' time for these investments of maybe 2 months ((IG)) before they could pull the money out again. I was also planning to 'pro-rate' the interest in case of a 'pull-out'. I don't think I made that clear. So for example, supp...

Phibol, Thank you for the offer, but Northbridge is just too close to the 'cultists' in Trollsbane at the moment. Perhaps in the future, we would gladly meet there, but for now, it offers no security from the violence in Trollsbane. I must consider the safety of our members. Many Thanks, ~Bernie Bot...
