About 2 or so hours until I start working on my next major plot-post.
It was nothing, merely a mistake made on my part on account of my crappy eyes and eyesight. Don't worry about it. ;o
EDIT:
Nevermind, i was being a dumb.

EDIT 2:

Ashara isn't a minion-controller. The Shrine has maybe, at the most, two dozen other NPCs aside from she herself. Just in case anyone was confused about the number of people at the shrine. :o
@Kazemitsu
The Frrgotten Ruins are a city, based solely on the surface of the grasslands. If there were underground sections like sewers or tunnels, they have long since collapsed or flooded over with centuries of rain, hail and snow. There are only buildings on surface-level left now.

@Click This
No nation uses copper coins.
Silver is the lowest kind of currency.
As there is no universal currency, the exchange rate of silver-to-gold varies depending on nation.
As such, I can only tell you the exchange rate for Palagria at this time, since it's the only nation I've (officially) created and listed so far.
In Palagria, silver is typiaclly exchanged at a rate of 1,000 to 1. Ergo, a thousand silver coins equals one single gold coin in Palagria.
For a feel for how prices work for mundane things, regular food items in Palagria usually sell for between 1 to 12 silver, depending on how hard the item in question is to get/make.
Luxury foods or drinks tend to be sold at - usually - 20~100 silver, again depending on the rarity and difficulty of making/acquiring.

Basic food would be stuff like potatoes, tomatoes, carrots, sack o' grain, loaf o' bread, etc.
Luxury foods would be stuff like chocolate, honey, coffee, tea leaves, wild game meats, pastries, etc.

I hope this helps. If you need further explanations or examples, let me know.

EDIT:

Note: If there is a shortage of something, prices obviously rise.
Wouldn't you have to write a starter regardless of how many posts Xalt does? Or is he specifically introducing your character in tomorrow's post?

Nobody gets special treatment. You write your own damn characer into the story. That's why it's your character... D<
Tomorrow is plot-advancement day (sunday). Be prepared.
What is this? 1920's Germany!?
@IceHeart
Both are very cute. I feel that Violet would be helped by having, as you said, levels in Miner or Geologist or some such, rather than SMith. As mentioned already, if she is the Gate Keeper of the Chateau, even if her skills and classes added benefits to a party composition, it would be strange for the members of Banderstachers to bring along or remove the very first hindrance to enemy attackers who tried to get into the Chateau.

As for Talim, I really don't have much to say. He seems like a little miscreant, designed solely for the purpose of being a mischievous trollop. While humorous, the fact that there are already quite a few "asshole" charaters in the Chateau, and the current internal instability and political climate of the guild, makes me worry about him just being more fuel to the fire. Of course, if that's what you're going for, he's just fine, and we do have a ton of female characters as it is... Then again, this one's totally a trap, so ... Yeah... :p

Either one seems fine to me, I honestly don't have a real preference.
To give an approximation of how much gold is worth:

In Palagria, a full set of high-quality chainmail costs around 400 silver coins.

In most nations, people of common birth or low social standing rarely ever have possession of a single gold coin during their entire life, unless they're very frugal and thrifty.

Roughly speaking, you need about a 150~200 gold coins to purchase a decently sized estate, with a mansion, stables, servants quarter and hire on staff for it.

Basically, the guy who gets the reward is pretty well set for a long time. :P
