Maybe I'll actually get started with this at some point. Have you ever wondered how merchants stood deep in unventured caves, woods, and ruins - always awaiting a weary traveler?

Or maybe they're asking for some gem that's useless to you - but in return, you receive a masterpiece of a weapon or tool. The answer lies with the Merchant's Guild. Enigmatic at the best of times and completely shrouded in mystery at worst. They know more about coin than anyone else, and how to exploit that knowledge. They reside in world of Hel, a paradise for those who enjoy misery for company. In Hel, spirits and monsters run rampant while humans engage in war perpetually, with no central power giving any semblance of control. There, nations can be built and destroyed in a day, and often are. Nathan lived a varied life on Earth between the mob and the military. The only thing he knows is making money through killing. Luckily for him, that's an express ticket to the best of the best at the Merchant's Guild. But maybe there is more to life than just money.
