You decline to answer his question directly for you do not wish to give him the impression that you are familiar with the ways of magic. Rather than reveal your true identity, or the reasons why you now find yourself in Bisutan, you simply say that you are a traveller who is on his way south.

‘Mmmm … ’ mutters the old man, clearly bemused, ‘perhaps, you have acquired something … magical… whilst on your travels? I am a collector of magical artefacts. In fact that is why I’ve come to Bisutan. If you have anything of an arcane nature I would be most keen to make you an offer of purchase.’

If you possess an Iron Skull, a Kutyan Emerald, or a Siyen Crown, and you wish to sell one or more of these Special Items to the old magician, turn to 54.

If you do not possess any of these items, or if you do not want to sell any of them, turn to 262.
