| + | ==Who is he?== |
| | + | [[Image:Amenophthis2.png|center|150px|Amenophthis the man]] |
| | | | |
| − | Main chat channel
| |
| | | | |
| | + | A trader called Amenophthis who intends to sell exotic goods rare to Egypt. |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Ah, more people are arriving
| + | He seemed courteous in our discussions with him. He uses his own trade unit called a 'Knar'. |
| | | | |
| − | BlueGrass: could we not trade them for some of the goods you have to offer?
| + | ==When did he first make his appearance in Egypt?== |
| | + | *RL 16th January 2010. |
| | + | <br>He spoke with McArine and to Lavitz. Essentially this man announced he would be trading 'a few trinkets, as well as a few of my specialities'. |
| | | | |
| − | McArine: Hello again Amenophthis :-)
| + | A portion of the chat may be found here at [[Amenophthis/chats]] |
| | | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: Greetings Amenophthis
| |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: A good day to you McArine
| + | ==And the main event?== |
| | + | *RL date 17 January 2010 |
| | + | *Ingame Yr 3- Shemu IV-20 between 11am and 4pm |
| | + | <br>He had set up a small camp near Meroe chariot. This camp comprised a fancy tent, chests and storage drums surrounding a bright bonfire and a large cooking pot. |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I have some certain items in mind for those, BlueGrass | + | [[Image:Amenophthis.png|center|350px|The Camp]] |
| | | | |
| − | BlueGrass: Very good
| + | His appearance had been announced on E! Many of us travelled to Meroe to see this visitor. He looked like one of us but was not. |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I also have some Puzzle Granite, something which I believe is very hard to find in Egypt
| + | He had the rare [http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale4/Marble#Puzzle_Granite_.28Perception_over_40.29 Puzzle Granite] and [[Gold]] for trade in exhange for herbs. He said he had 'special commodities' which would improve the already natural fertility of the Nile. However he required specific items of our resources which are unique to Egypt, including herbs and mushrooms. |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I am open to any offers from people wishing to buy either gold or puzzle granite.
| + | This special commodity was a substance called '[[Fertility]]' also known as 'Nkambtha'. And he also was willing to trade to the highest bidder the secret of making this substance. Sadly he only had 100deben of this substance available for trade. |
| | | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: For what goods Amenophthis?
| |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Specialities of Egypt
| + | '''Trade Logs''' |
| | + | * 5 deben of [[fertility]] for 20 bottles of well aged Egyptian wine (5 vintages or older- at the time of writing we were on 35 vintage) |
| | + | * BlueGrass traded 20 turtle shell for 5 [[Fertility]] |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Assorted herbs or Mushrooms
| + | Althought trading for debens of [[fertility]] was relatively straightforward although not exactly cheap. His price for the secret was rather more expensive. |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Or
| + | He would trade the secret of making the Elixer for certain hard-to-find mushrooms... Sun Star, Beehive and Golden Sun. These mushrooms when mixed together make a drink beloved of nobles in far off lands. |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I do have a rather special commodity
| + | [[Image:Amenophthis_shrooms.png|center|The Shrooms!]] |
| | | | |
| − | Amenophthis: As I have pointed out, the soil in Egypt is not of the best quality
| + | *Sun Star worth 50 knar |
| | + | *BeeHive worth 100 knar |

| − | BlueGrass: now that I'm interested in | + | BlueGrass, Casino and Nissim were able to make a satisfactory bid. |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: However, there are techniques developed by sciences in far away lands that have managed to improve the quality
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: This substance is known as 'Fertlity'
| |
| − | | |
| − | BlueGrass: that we could put to good use
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Or at least, that is the translation to your language
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: The name given by the creators was...
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis pauses
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Sorry it's rather an odd word
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I believe it was 'Nkambtha'
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: However
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I only have 100 db of Fertility
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: What is the use of this substance ?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Applied to crops, it gives a substantial boost to their yield
| |
| − | | |
| − | Casino: can "fertily" be reproduced?

| − | Amenophthis: Applied to crops, it gives a substantial boost to their yield
| |
| − | | |
| − | Casino: can "fertily" be reproduced?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Casino: or duplicated in a lab?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: Does it help growing seeds, or fights the ground pollution ?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: it helps the seeds to grow
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Ah Casino, you would have me sell one of the greatest additions to my Caravan?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nissim: works also with herb seeds?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I'm afriad not Nissim
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: What would be a decent trade item(s) for this substance ? Herbs and mushrooms still ?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Numaris: Casino's question is a good one. 100db won't last Egypt very long the way we grow our crops... would you also sell the secret of making it?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Herbs are rather more complex and changing
| |
| − | | |
| − | dedenav: coucouille les filles :)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I'm not sure it would be beneficial
| |
| − | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: Forgive me Amenphthis, but what are the drawbacks. We have some basic fertilisers which sadly can pollute.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Let us see if you find it of use
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nissim: ou tu vois des filles?^^
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: After that, we will consider
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Basic fertilisers?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: Chuteuh !
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: For crops?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: Well weed repellents.
| |
| − | | |
| − | BlueGrass: Barely
| |
| − | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: I did say basic, sadly our camel dumg was not what it used to be
| |
| − | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: *dung
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: This substance may be applied to vegetables and I've also had promising results with flax
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: I'm willing to trade 6 leafs of the very rare Wild Lettuce for it ! *crosses fingers*
| |
| − | | |
| − | Casino: i am in the position as we stand here to offer you 2 Golden Sun Mushrooms for some of your "Nkambtha"
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: No, I have a special request in mind for this
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: Would you be so kind and share it with us ?
| |
| − | | |
| − | BlueGrass: I think then we would be interested for the good of all egypt if we could learn to reproduct this Nkambtha
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nissim: yes indeed
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Very well
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I am willing to sell 5 db of Fertility, for the price of 20 bottles of well aged Egyptian wine, 5 vintages or older should do it
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: Egyptian wine is most prized in the noble's courts.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: We are glad to hear our wine is prized
| |
| − | | |
| − | dedenav: ok i bye 5 db
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: To be most fair, I will only trade once per person
| |
| − | | |
| − | dedenav: let me 5 mn to go to my chest
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I shall await your return here.
| |
| − | | |
| − | hitoriki: i would like to offer you the finest quality shovel there is in egypt whit your name on it for 5db of the fertility
| |
| − | | |
| − | logosmaid: And what is this prized Fertility?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Khaemwaset: Ameophthis- are there any --shall we say- side effects to the use of this substance on the crops?
| |
| − | | |
| − | BlueGrass: I don't have enough wine that is old enough for you
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nissim: in the meantime can we learn a bit more on ways ro reproduce it?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Casino: yes, the reproduction of this will benefit us all | |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I am unaware of any such effects Khamewaset
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: The reproduction is a very very secretive affair
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: I would require a sufficient payment to divulge it
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nissim: need to be paid to deliver that secret?
| |
| − | | |
| − | dedenav: i have 20 bottles of a very old vine

| |
| − | | |
| − | Nissim: yes

| |
| − | | |
| − | dedenav: is it a chemical recipe
| |
| − | | |
| − | Amenophthis: There are certain mushrooms that have some very odd effects on the body of a person
| |
| − | | |
| − | Klangdah: Could you be more specific ?
| |
| − | Nissim: halucinogens?
| |
| − | | |
