After lining their pockets with gold and plat earned from the sale of bloodstained weapons scavenged from the battlefield, the Infernal Merchants have begun to strike their camps and set their sites to distant lands and their next fortune. The Merchant camps will remain, offering their remaining wares, until 8/30/2010. Be certain to visit these travelling salesmen before Monday, for their wares may never be seen in the Realms again!

Greetings!
