Redguard:Gerrick

Gerrick is an Altmer trader in Stros M'Kai who owns the town's general store, Gerrick's Goods. He has a pet parrot named Orsone that likes to rhyme and interrupt his conversations. His store sells the items on display, except for candles: aloe, a compass, canah feathers, a shovel, and torches.

Gerrick pays Rollo to bring up shipments from the harbor, and like others he doesn't think highly of him. Apart from Gerrick's usual items, his shipments have included Valenwood wine and malachite, though he hasn't carried the latter since the alchemist Vromish died. Iszara came by his store looking for malachite before she disappeared. Gerrick believes she had connections to the Restless League and went to the Smuggler's Den afterward to find some.

He is one of four people who you may hear about the Smuggler's Den from, the others being Mariah, Prnell, and Siona.

:"Smugglers Den?"
:''"Yes, under the Cartographer's shop. An open secret around town.
:"I'm sure those smugglers are connected with the Restless League -- selling Valenwood wine stolen from my own ships, at double the price since they have no competition!"
:"Hmm."
:"I can't prove any of it, of course."
:Orsone: "I'm a pretty bird!"


Alchemist
(Unlocked by "Malachite")

:"Malachite is used in alchemy?"
:"I believe so. Old Vromish --"
:Orsone: "Squawwwk!"
:"the alchemist, used to order a pound or two from time to time.
:"But he's been dead now these seven years, and the Mage's Guild gets their potions wholesale, so I haven't carried malachite since."''


Mage's Guild
(Unlocked by "Alchemist")

:'''"The Mage's Guild sells potions?"
:"Yes, they now have an official monopoly on magic of any kind. Archmage Voa's doing, took advantage of his access to the Prince, at the expense of us small businessmen!
:"Remains to be seen what the new Imperial policy will be. Governor Richton's too busy with his archeological hobby to bother with a small matter like economic policy!"

Archaeology
:"The Governor is an archaeology buff?"
:"He's crazy over anything Dwarven. The Dwarven Ruins are full of soldiers, looking for who knows what.
:"Richton better hope the Emperor never finds out how he's wasting his valuable troops!"

(Unlocked by "Rollo")

 
:"Bell?"
:"My old friend Favis rings the bell to signal the arrival of a ship, so the merchants know to come down to the harbor to trade.
:"Rollo is supposed to listen for it, but I've had such trouble with him. Ach, but you don't need to listen to an old elf complain!"


Bye

::"Squawwwk!"
::"Whee whoooo"
::"I'm a pretty bird!"
