Legend

After asking around and using some "charm" provided by Azoth, someone points you in the direction of the black market where the less reputable can buy their wares.

However this trip might not be uneventful. If you currently have a Contract on your head by the Ebony Claw Syndicate, you'll run into a couple of their thugs which you'll have to fight at the same time. (You skip this if you don't have a contract on you of course)

EBONY CLAW THUG
SKILL: 9
STAMINA: 10

EBONY CLAW THUG
SKILL: 11
STAMINA: 9

If you win you'll find 20 gold on them and continue on your way.

The "merchants" don't look quite human. Azoth mentions that they're probably demonkin. Spawn of demons and humans. The merchants can sense you have a demonic presence about you, but again, they don't care, you'll pay like everyone else. They are interested in business first and foremost. There isn't any fighting here. A sign posted right above the counter states that any fighting will be met with extreme force by the proprietors. This is backed up by the 4 IRON GOLEMS posted strategically in the place and magical barriers protecting the merchants here.

Not surprisingly the prices here are a lot more expensive, but you'll probably find some more unusual items here.
