Kayomi

Kayomi adjusted their tie while patiently explaining the virtues of a well-balanced, non-magical throwing knife to a wizard whose robes smelled of burnt starlight. The wizard was unimpressed. 'But it doesn't glow,' they complained. When Kayomi first arrived in The Crystal Highlands of Armaria, they thought their background in silent infiltration and their new career in commerce would be entirely separate. They were wrong. Here, among the monoliths and mages, their most valuable asset wasn't their inventory, but the unflappable calm learned from waiting motionless for hours. They sell concepts the wizards have forgotten: reliability, simplicity, silence. With a tranquil grin, Kayomi makes a fortune trading mundane perfection to those overwhelmed by magic.
