House Victross

House Victross are a middlemen house built from lowborn High Elves who managed to wheel and deal their place in a low rate social standing. They have no long lineages of famous heroes, just hard working merchants and intellectuals who figured out how to best exploit their lands and their strategic location along the Grand Highway. Victross is a wholesaler who will buy in bulk from many farmers, merchants, and others trying to get to Everglow to hauck wares. They'll pay a bulk price of a third of what the travelers could have made in Everglow, but the people are able to get their gold and leave quickly back to home,s o there's little fuss over payments.
Victross will then invoice everything, and either ship it to Everglow, or sell it to much large houses for a discounted bulk price equal to two thirds the retail value if it were to go to the city. Where they can still make a tidy sum of profits. Regardless of this, they have a robust and secure system of logistics and a mercenary band on hand at all times to ensure safe delivery of products. They are also happy to pay whatever bandits and highwaymen whatever the amount is they might be wanting to just get them out of the way, which while it cuts profits, those who are brazen enough to size up mercenaries and pick a fight are not worth the trouble of hiring more mercenaries even if they are destroyed.
Victross is also not liable to wait int eh long queues to enter the city, and instead has a permanent trader's pass to have their items quickly scanned over and moved along. Meaning they don't need to worry about too much int he way of losses or diminished quality.
