Description
People don't just come to the faire for fun and fortunes, {name}. Most want something to take home with them, so I help to create the magical trinkets visitors purchase with their prize tickets. For that, I need a steady supply of soothsayer's dust. Take a look around the grounds and you'll see a lot of discarded weapons. Those are just the kinds of items that can be broken down into dust with enchanting skills like yours. Would you like to help?
