Cruise stumbled out of the gambling tent into the cold dark night. He had lost everything... again...
Kicking up puffs of soft white sand as he made his way across the beach of Castilla Mines, he stared into the dark horizon. The sound of waves gently breaking as they hit the shoreline soothed his nerves.
"the darn nurse really is good at cards.. " Cruise thought " must not play with her again..."
His thoughts scattered as he looked into the stars strewn across the night sky.
Then he remembered a conversation he had with a passing merchant few days ago. That merchant had offered him an interesting deal. An offer to trade X vis bags for every Brestian Soldier Box where X increases with every 100 favor points he gained with the backstreet citizens of Kielce. Running errands for those low lifes?.. It had initially sounded like a crazy idea but with mounting debts...
Cruise sat down on the beach and started drawing on the sand.
"lets see... hmmm ..."
If I have 10000 favor points, that will be 100 vis bags per soldier box...
If I have 32767 soldier box, that will then get me 3276700 vis bags...
Since each vis bag holds a random amount of vis but on average of 30k,
thats equivalent to ...
darn .. I need a calculator....
(Cruise scratches his head...)
98 301 000 000 ie about... 100 biLLiOn ViS!!!!
omg...
A stunned Cruise stared at his calculations scribbled on the sand.
A wave rushed in and promptly swept off his scribbings but Cruise had the figure he needed already. 100 billion vis!
"Hey, guard!" Cruise hollered as he jumped up and start running towards the port master
"Get me a spot on the next ship!!! I wanna go Orrrphesiaaaaa!"
