Smoke_Trader:
Alright. I'm back.
Sorry for the delay, though. I didn't have any mortal-tier things in my trade stash, so I had to go offline and check my offline storage.
Now, I have all the mortal-tier things one can ask for, so tell me your requirements, my man.
Even if you want see-through goggles, I am the right person for the trade.
Come on, tell me what you want.

'What do I do now?'
