[@BellBottomBlues] Darnit, I'm drawing a blank. I have a rough idea of what I want to write; I need to set the scene for the Auction. With the new influx of slaves, it'll be a busy day, and a profitable one for Gurgle Moor. He'll want to make a spectacle of Eru's auction, and might even be inclined to sacrifice her instead. I imagined Lanik visiting the Auction (for reasons I wouldn't know) and seeing Eru about to be destroyed, so to stop the sacrifice, he'd offer to buy her for the asking price. Or something like that.
