"I want a sword," Beam said, testing the waters. But Greeves instantly shook his head.
"No can do. I don't have any cheap swords kicking around and with the price of steel in this village you'd be looking at upwards of 1 gold," Greeves said.
"I still want a sword," Beam said adamantly. "On top of the 5 coppers you're giving me for completing the quest, I want 5 coppers for these heads and I want a sword with it."
"You're not making any sense, boy," Greeves said in irritation. "I've already said I can't get you a sword. I'm not going to give you 5 coppers on top of a deal I already declined."
"Then make your offer, merchant. That's what I want. What do you ask for in return?" Beam said.
