[VIDEO] | UN: HAMMERTIME
[The broadcast begins with a shot of Darin's forge, full of various workspaces and call kinds of tools. The forge itself is burning brightly in the center of the work floor and in the back you can see a waterwheel turning and depositing water into a small channel that Darin uses to pump water throughout the forge and subsequently his home.]
[He wanders on screen and takes a seat, addressing the camera.]
So, I've been doing a lot of thinking. Shocking, I know, right? But hear me out.
I've been here for about six months and my forge has been in business for the last couple. But with all of the different ways to facilitate trade between Camelot and its neighbors, I'm a little surprised to find there isn't some sort of business or merchant guild. At least none that I've found.
Anyway, I'm doing pretty well for myself financially, what with all of the quests and my forge and I got to thinking. How many of you have business ideas that need investors? Got an idea for a shop? Maybe even a product? Let's workshop it!
If there's anything I've learned, it's that plenty of alliances can be formed through good business, and with the recent business with Celliwig and Arthur, maybe it would be good to start finding ways to extend as many olive branches as we can...
So, who's got a dream they want to try and make a reality?

Running a nation is quite different to running a mercantile enterprise. But I suppose I can offer some advice to those who need it.

Are you certain you want someone like me advising others? I would remind you of who I am.

Look sometimes people do bad things for good reasons
What youve done has no bearing on what youre doing now and until you start
I dunno
Brokering deals with a literal devil or something?
I think your insight and your perspective is valuable
Besides if were really gonna do this thing and form some kind of guild I dont want its leadership to be a bunch of people that agree with everything I say and do. Thats not how it should work and thats a really easy way to corrupt a system. I want different perspectives opinions and experiences.

Funny that Darin should mention making deals with devils...]How surprisingly astute of you.

Oh, very well. I will see what I can do, but I make no promises.
