Greetings Basin,

It has been some time since I have posted on these subjects, and since I
have been informed that they are a matter of interest to many
individuals, I thought I would provide some information on opportunities
I have for people.

Firstly, the Aethercity of Deepnight is a community that is starting to
take the shape I had intended it to. I first wrote on this subject many
years ago, and at that point, my city was just an idea. But now that
many have contributed, six people make it their second home, and I
myself have dug deeply into my own pockets, the dream of having a
neutral territory to relax or live in, as well as being a mode of quick
transportation has been realized. Deepnight is under construction, and
perhaps it will always be, as the dreams and funds of the citizens are
poured into it, to make it better than what it already is.

For those that wish to purchase a private room, the current cost is
140,000 gold, or 30 credits, providing that there are no major credit
market changes. Note that a room itself costs 150,000 gold to even
-make-, but I will contribute some of my personal funds to make a home
for any who wish. Also note that when I started building, rooms cost
around 50 credits to build, and that price has been nearly cut in half.

There are also several funds, which may interest various other groups.
One is for a chessboard to be placed in the Grand Plaza, one is so that
a willpower gem can be placed there as well (there is already an
endurance regeneration gem infused), and I'm also taking donations for
those who wish to practice their trade in the Merchant's Guild
Tradehall. The donations have been many, and some have been of decent
size, and I thank those that have already participated, and look forward
to any forthcoming private funding.

Next, I wish to announce that the Merchant's Guild is once again
accepting transcendent merchant into their ranks. CLANHELP MASTERS will
usually have the most updated information. The Merchant's Guild owns
both the tradehall in Deepnight, and two private cartels, one forging,
the other tailoring. There are plans to purchase a jewelry and a cooking
cartel in the future, made possible by clan dues, and generous donations
of certain talented individuals.

The Black Anvil, a well-respected forging cartel, is also open to anyone
apprentice level or above. This is the oldest private forging cartel,
and we are looking for the best of the best to join. This cartel is not
limited to transcendent blacksmiths, because we understand that many
wish to learn the trade, and would like a place to grow in their craft.

The Fate's thread is a private tailoring cartel, the first non-forging
endeavor that I have ever set out on. Bau runs this cartel, and again,
anyone apprentice level or above may join, use the private designs, and
have a place to learn more about the newest ways to craft clothing.

Anyone who wishes to know more about these two cartels, or that wishes
to join them, may read CLANHELP BLACKANVIL, or CLANHELP FATES.

Lastly, aside from offering cheap, permanent, customizable housing, and
accepting persons into private cartels, I'm also advertising my own
services as a blacksmith. Recently, I've done a number of private
designs for some people, prices on those ranging from 30-70 credits. I
can make nearly everything, and can design it myself. I also sell many
different weapons in my store in Deepnight, at the Grand Plaza. For
those that do not know, we're linked to the aetherplexes at the peak, as
well as in Celest, Magnagora, and Glomdoring. I also, from time to time,
show off my skills as an artist. I can paint anything you wish, for a
price.

That's all for now. If you have any questions about any of the previous
topics, feel free to leave me a message, or find me wandering the
aetherways.
