“Argus Brecci runs 'Brecci's Facet and Fettle,' a clean, well-lit jeweler's nestled on a quiet lane. Shelves are arranged by color rather than price, and every stone is displayed on white linen. Argus always wears a pair of magnifying spectacles perched low on his nose and hums a steady tune as he works. He catalogues every transaction in a ledger bound with brass corners. He insists customers remove their gloves and place coins on a small brass tray for counting. He is a careful dwarf with a craftsman's pride and a soft spot for honest adventurers who bring rare finds. He will haggle politely but never compromises on workmanship, and he offers free cleaning to anyone who brings an item purchased here within a month.”
