As the sun rose overhead James found himself stretching his arms as he scooted himself out of bed to get ready for the day. As James got all dressed he began his preparations for departure as he brought a hefty sum of money with him in his cooking bag with his knife as to not attract burglars to steal it. James was dressed in his usual attire but only wore his chefs hat and apron at the mayor's house. Noticing how his cooking knife was starting to get dull he would get it reforged at the blacksmiths shop. As James paced down the street he noticed a wagon with rich embroidery and three guards heading to the shop he was headed to. James knew something was up as he walked in before the strange guard like people. After entering James noticed quite a few people having money problems but one in particular peaked his interest.

James approached the tall orc who seemed run down on his luck. [color=gold]"I would like to hire you as the bodyguard to protect me."[/color] As James waited for a response he walked over to the counter and and asked to have his cooking knife sharpened.

[color=gold]"I heard you are very good at your work so i personally came to get this sharpened"[/color] He said handing the cooking knife to her. [color=gold]"Would 1000 Gold coins be enough to refit my bodyguard with armor and a new weapon?"[/color] 
[color=gold]"Of course the Knife itself only needs sharpening so i believe 50 gold coins will be enough for that."[/color] 
James noticed that his spending would not go unnoticed as he guards came ever closer.
