Trueno takes up the cigar, rolls it in his hand , inspecting it. "Ah, smlles muy bueno- muchas gracias, i hope those are not cigars rolled with gaian preferences, si?"
He doesn't seem to overly care and fumbles a small knife out of his jacket to cut the cigar, offering the knife to Brisbane afterwards. The cigar gets ligthend up by lighter which is also passed -when Brisbane looks at the items he sees that both are more pieces of art then mere tools, the knife hilt completly made from a shimmering violet material with wavy lines of crimson red enclosed within, the blade is etched and embedded with a continuation of the red pattern. The lighters hull is jet black with wierd alien engravings.
"You mean trinkets like these? Artifacts to get the attention of everyone in an hombres gentlemans club? Corsair artisans fashion all sorts of luxury items out of collected artifacts...normally we chose those which have a special touch, color or engraving to give them the special touch our customers are looking for...recently very popular are corsair made jewelries not only endorsed with artifacts but also crafted with Corsair gold, if that is what you are looking for.
With decorations...well- the bigger you need them the pricier they are, especially if they should be fashioned completly out of artifacts as it gets quite tedious to supply the huge demand of big connected pieces...but we will find something for you, si si.
As for "naturalist" artifact connaiseurs ...well many modified pieces are infact still complete and untouched, especially for small ones in jewelry...but of course you can have big ones aswell, if we know what to look for we can leave a socket of asteroid material on the piece or shape collums out of the asteroids, liberating small artifacts on their surface...very impressive if the anclosed artifacts are colorful!"
Trueno purs two new glasses, then continues
"Now...you already mentioned compensation...it is true we need supplies more than pesetos in exchange for our goods...the question is...which things do you have access to? Don't get my wrong Senor, we are surely interested in fine luxury foods or the newest iNeuralNet...things of everydays' life in the houses can be astounishingly hard to get on Crete. But potential interest on -special- goods is always there as well,si?!"
