Nena grinned broadly at the idea of a trading empire, in a virtual world. She would love something like that, with well-guarded supply trains bringing her a flow of raw goods.
"That's no different to play Civilization 5, or some other game of that genre. Only, you are the person, not the God Controling All. A trading Empire here, would actually be highly efficent, since it would prevent people from spreading out and each working for their own profit and nothing else. Being a blacksmith, I have a fair bit of money even on the low floors, since only a few people joined intending to be a crafter from the start. Crafting, unfortunately, does make all other adventuring take a back seat, so most people passed it over so they could go out and kill things. Of course, the few of us that realized you don't need to sit in your shop every day, or can just put your name up and have people message you if you are out, took to the smithing right away" she then blushed softly and stroked her tail.

"Sorry, for rambling. I just, get like that sometimes when talking about blacksmithing. It's cool"
