To all,
I will be collecting a resource tax on all that take from the lands of Necktie.
The homes you live in tax you. You think this to be fair. You take all the resources you want. But you come here and think they be free. They aint. The tax will apply to any and all who keep me from trading in they towns. If I cant use yours, ya cant use mine.
The tax will be...
10 silver to harvest fruit
50 silver to mine ore
10 silver to fish
1 gold to stay the night
You may pass through for free, and visit Borgate for free, but be courteous and keep the gates closed.
The tax will be paid to any participating town member, or Necktie member. On their asking.
All taxes will be divided equally between participating towns, minus a ten percent collection fee.

As stands,...
All from Ruinwick are exempt.

A parchment is in Borgate's hand.

This tax to Hemptie is a fine idea, we'll collect also, except those from Galmair since we have been paid already to allow the citizens through.

The parchment is simply signed with a ~J~

A giant of a man with white hair and a wooden left arm reads some of the old news.
He begins to write.

My name is azure. I'll mine for free. I'll fish for free. I'll gather fruit for free. If I chose to sleep outside that will be free as well. If I want to rent a room I'll speak to the inn keeper. And pay him. If you don't like it well then to bad for you.
