'I think you'd know if I were stupid, sir,' Nuva replied to his initial assessment. 'And I assure you, I am spoken for enough that robbery would be a poor life choice. Though that said, my initial assessment was accurate: that much gold is somewhat much for my current standing. If I have a few weeks to gather it, though,' he mused, 'then... let's see, how much gold would I have in...' his muttering trailed off as he began figuring out how much time it would take for him to acquire as much gold as he'd need. If one hundred gold per major job was the standard, and he managed to gather, say, fifty gold per week from additional jobs, he'd likely be able to afford the whole thing in less than eight weeks. That seemed quite reasonable, considering his profession.

'I believe that will be manageable enough,' Nuva acquiesced. 'I shall return when I have the money needed. I trust I won't need to leave a name?' he asked as he began to walk out of the store. He really needed to check what time it was, and perhaps begin to prepare for dealing with the vampire, with or without the rest of the guild, if it wasn't verging toward noon yet. And if it was, he ought to head toward the northern gate post-haste.
