Ri4ard & Thorneus
Ri4ard
Hey, I heard there's a private auction for some rare manuscripts and I think it's the perfect blend of high stakes and your love for forgotten verses—let's see if we can score something big together.
Thorneus
Sure, nothing like a private auction to remind me that I can get a dusty, cracked book for a small fortune. Bring your wallet, I'll bring my sarcasm and a quick exit plan.
Ri4ard
Sounds like a plan—I'll bring the cash and a network of high rollers to make sure the dust can be sold off faster than you can say “outbid.” Let's get that treasure before someone else thinks it's worth a second look.
Thorneus
Fine, just don't let the high rollers get too cozy with my patience. If the dust flies, I'll grab the manuscript, and if they try to outbid, I'll let them know the real treasure is the next line of an ancient poem I keep in my pocket.
