Master had concluded his affairs with the tavern guilds and returned to attend to his loyal patrons. Joining a guild in this kingdom is not only advantageous but also somewhat obligatory for any business establishment. With the exception of the guard knights, who are under direct control of the kingdom, various occupations such as merchants, tavern, innkeepers, shoemakers, artisans, fishermen, and even butchers in the market each have their own distinct guilds. All these guilds operate under the oversight of a higher council known as the commercial guild. Their responsibilities include negotiating with the kingdom on matters such as tax rates and price regulations, ensuring a balanced supply and demand within the kingdom's market.

Guild members are obliged to pay monthly or yearly membership fees in exchange for various benefits. These include provisions for the well-being and healthcare of their family members, as well as legal support in the event of trading disputes. By fulfilling their financial obligations to the guild, members ensure the security and protection of their livelihoods and gain access to valuable resources and assistance when needed. Guilds also provided several information about price information for the goods in different regions which was helpful to merchants like me. The intricacies of this system became apparent to me during my four-year journey, ascending from a humble peddler to a merchant with a horse-drawn carriage.
In my planned itinerary, I intend to remain in this city for no more than 5 days before embarking on another journey. During my stay, I dedicate my days to diligent market research, offering goods from distant regions, engaging in informative exchanges with the merchant guild, and securely depositing my earnings in the guild bank. Around midday, I visit the Dragon's Paw for a swift lunch, replenishing my energy before resuming my market investigations and procurement strategy. Typically, I finalize the acquisition of all the goods I intend to trade in my upcoming journey on the day prior to my departure.
