Killion only welcomed the interruption with a smirk. He had liked Eliza, a woman after his own heart, but he could not help finding a trace of amusement in the irony of the one person Stark had promised to leave be in battle being the only noteworthy casualty. As he departed, the reaver turned back to the dragon.
"Quite mercurial that one. Blase' and lighthearted one moment, then downhearted and morose the next." he remarked, eyes following the northerner. "Still, as you said, not one I'd wish to face on land."
"No objections here." he agreed to the influx of trade, no finance lessons needed to know that was a smart move. "As for my request, if there are any Yi Ti shipwrights among the captured prisoners, I would like to bring them back to Tyrosh with me."

Vhagus nodded. "Of course. There will be more when we advance east. I must consolidate my gains then prepare for more, is suspect. The enemy is not put off by a mere defeat."

"A pity I must return to consolidating my own." he replied, wishing he could stay for the campaign. Such was the burden of responsibility. "We've had a strange new drug enter the market of late, a red powder with magical properties. Don't suppose you know anything of it?

"I've heard of it," he said. "I haven't had time to study it. I suspect Westeros has sorcerers who can break it down." He shrugged. "it has t made it this Far East. Do you have any?"

"We've acquired a bit, though no quantity of note." he replied. "Now that we've a proper trading empire, I would be remiss not to learn as much about new commodities that enter the market as I can."

"I'd beware that type of merchandise; drugs often seem to bite the hand they fill with gold," he said. "But I imagine Amelia Royce is going to be a candidate to speak to on the matter."

"That girl always seems to get her nose in everything. Literally this time, it seems." he chuckled. "I will be cautious, but fortune favors the bold."

Vhagus nods. "Literally virtually every time," he said drily. "Fortune also favors the wise," he added. "Just make sure you can leash the beast before you bring it home." Drogon flies overhead, hunting for cattle or sheep or horses.

"Aye, easier to unleash the kraken than contain it." he agreed, watching the dragon soar, destructive and grace all in one. "I assure you, I will not rush to profit from that which I do not understand."

"Good," Vhagus said. "Something so potent was created for a reason, I think," he said. "Send me some of it if you get a chance. I confess to a small bit of intrigue."

"Fair trade for a Yi Ti shipwright." he agreed, scanning the battlefield and breathing deep with a satisfied sigh. He had a feeling he would not be enjoying the scent for a good long while. "Let me know if one is found and when you are ready to depart."

"If we don't find one now, I will when I smash their little lotus port," Vhagus said. "I'd offer some salt wives but from my dim understanding of the custom that would be missing the point." He nods. "We can head out whenever you're ready."

Killion set about looting the battlefied. He was still a reaver at heart, after all. When he was finished, he informed Vhagus.
