I don't think its possible, but I didn't know there were two Silt Strider owners in Maar Gan. Are you sure about that?

No, I'm wrong: I got my notes off.

Nevam is wrong, he's in Ald-ruhn. Too bad: it would have been nice having two competing travel merchants, who could be played off one another.

There are other towns. I'm not ready yet, but eventually I'll be able to code something like that for you with Merchants. Possibly so they like you less if you use the competition, and you get charged more as a result, but beyond that, I don't know...

Quick update on Khuul:

We are 6 NPCs away from completion. There is now a small quest involving starting an investigation into smuggling, the reward is an equisite ring, useful but not overpowered. Of course starting an investigation into smugglers might not make you very popular with them....

Other than that we have a story around an assasin, a missing husband somebody stirring up the rumours, and a Nord who seeks the axe Stormkiss...

I don't know if we're moving on to Maar Gan quite yet or not, but I'd like to take Mabrelle Geles, Shilipuran and Assirari Zama-Rasour (what a mouthful!), and Kind Erushara. For now. If there are any left once everybody's picked their four, I'll take more. Just don't want to take more than I can handle for now....

@ Fable
Hey, here's an idea. There may not be competing silt striders in Maar Gan, but there are competing tradehouses....

I think I can get one of the traders to refuse you service after you use his competition, I'm also looking at how I could get him to forgive you after a while, but its very very hard, maybe we could save it for another town?

In alot of the bigger cities there are two of everything, clothiers, armorers, etc... We could wait and do it in Balmora...

We are now almost finished Khuul, only three NPC's left to go, once they are done we will move on to Maar Gan. Fable and Beornica, I have already noted down the NPC's you requested on my list of Maar Gan NPCs. Maar Gan is slightly more quest heavy than Khuul, and so the priest at the shrine must retain dialogue regarding the Maar Gan pilgrimage, although this can be chagned and made more interesting. I'm giong to do the healer involved in the Mages Guild quest.

@Dragon Wench, do you know when you might get the dialogue finished by, I know you have lots of other things on, and I'm not trying to put any pressure on you, I'm just asking if you know when you might be finished.

So i think it is time for an update. I've been gone and i would like to know what, if any progress has occured... So could someone bring me up to speed?

I guess we are only waiting to get some NPC's from Dragon Wench. Maybe some people have already started on Maar Gan.

Ok, thank you

We haven't started Maar Gan, I want to release Khuul in a new thread, and start designating the Maar Gan NPCs in that thread. Fable has already chosen his NPCs, Beornica has emailed me to say that she's not going to be able to help out with Maar Gan, but maybe she can join again later, since her dialogue in Khuul is so good, I really hope so, but other than that we've not made any decisions on Maar Gan yet.

I don't think I have much time to write some dialogs, but if you give me enough time, like 2 weeks, I will be able to write some.
