Docus smiled warmly at the shopkeeper. This didn't seem quite right, but best to act unfazed.

"How fascinating. You know, I wouldn't have thought that there'd be that many people encountering the Udrafresk. Five only this week, you say? And of course, those are just the lucky few who happened to have gold weapons on them at the time! What're the chances of that? There must be dozens of search parties in those woods!"

His smile remained fixed, but he held eye contact for just a moment longer than was natural., before taking the staff from the shopkeeper and examining it. "Unless, of course, you were exaggerating just a minute bit? Perfectly understandable. Not, of course, in your interests to do so. The faster we neutralize the Udrafresk, the safer this little village is. It'd be horrible if it attacked the village and some poor villager or shopkeeper got petrified. The best way to prevent that is, of course, to give me the information we need, and give it to me precisely. If it's good, then you might make a sale to boot."

Appraisal of the staff, another opposed speech check. Or is that negotiation?
