Ten barrels of wine? Or was that five. Did the fat lump say five barrels or ten? It doesn't matter, with these bargaining chips alot can change for the short while in the castle. I know that I can gain the power of the most powerful men and women in this castle. he ones that are never seen but always there, who hear more secrets then the king or the prince. The people who can make the most money with secrets but are the most loyal.
The servants, the people behind the curtain helping me s=help the jumped up pricks not kill themselves. The cooks, the maids, the butler and the servants just to name a few. The people that the blood rulers ignore.
Anyway, side tracked. The servants love me, I give them the wine that they often just have to steal from goblets. "Right! YOU horrible lot!" I was already swingig in the room, the servant quarters is connected to the kitchens and the stores. "Great news, rationing of ten barrles of wine. In return you will be loyalty to me okay?"
