The situation has worsened for the League of Merchants
since Jordine Ducas ascended to the Regency.
I don't know what he's up to, but he's saving up funds.
Do you have any idea how ruthless his methods are?
He's forcing the League of Merchants to buy bonds
and suffer from debt due to high interest. We're up against the wall.
And it appears that the Republic has allowed the Encarotia Family, the nobles of Calpheon,
to have the Xian Merchant Guild establish a trading branch in Heidel.
It was an unfair trade at best.
The debt continues to grow and I can't even see my sister now.
The money from Zara barely covers the outrageous interest.
I can't bring myself to see Isobelle Encarotia, the branch head.
I get nervous just hearing her voice.
Please, can you explain her about our situation for me?

Take a look at the guard protecting Encarotia.
I get the feeling that she's going to kill me soon. Ah...

Are you the new proxy of Bobby Lauren? Is this all? Today is the day
he must pay off the principal, but this will barely cover the interest.
