After placing all the various jars and supplies into a satchel he pulled out the necklace. This was the turning point. After this... he would start things in earnest and the Empire would crumble. He just hoped the young orc wouldn't be angry at him for getting her involved in this.

The future would be very tough, filled with conflict and pain. He needed to find someway to break the spell that blanketed the Empire and made the populace blind to what was actually going on around them. That was the first goal of his. Otherwise it would be impossible for him to achieve his goals.

"I have this necklace." He told her as he held the necklace out to her "I found it in some ruins I was exploring recently... it should be able to pay for what you gave me easily."

He just hoped that she would try it on first and trigger the necklaces spell. Placing the gemmed necklace in her hand he placed his left arm across his chest in a salute before taking a step back.

"Thank you for helping me out." He told her before turning and leaving.
