Own a piece of history! This one-of-a-kind weapon was used many times by Unagi Miyamoto in defense of his barony. Oh yeah, he probably beheaded Taylara with it too. Undamaged blade, rosewood haft and accessories, contact dealer for details.
Japanese heavy metal on the block

This be an insult tae th' great Warrior Unagi... 'Tis tantamount tae barterin' a piece o' his soul.
After discussion with th' Cardinal o' th' Knights Templar, I hereby offer ten gold florins above any other bid made previously or hence.
Tae save this august personage any further insult, a straight offer o' two hundred gold florins is tendered, on th' condition that th' auction be stopped now.
Upon receipt o' th' Blade, it will be placed with th' weapons and mementoes left by other great duelists here in th' Arena cavern.

Madam Karen, did I misread this notice or are you using church funds to buy weapons? Truly our master did at one time suggest selling one's cloak to purchase a sword, but I am not certain that this was what He had in mind. If I may, I would trouble you for a deeper explanation of how He is glorified in this venture.

As stated earlier, this is a piece of RhyDin's history and Mac Donnaugh will not be out bid.
10 gold florins is an insult to the caliber of the weapon and its owner.
This weapon belongs on display in the museum and Mac Donnaugh has authorized me to accuire it.
Name your price

For all of the haughty, holier than thou mess that I've been reading from Nych and Karen, I still only see one solid bid on the board. Mine. Saying you won't be outbid is all well and good. Saying that the "church" has authorized you to bed 10 florins higher than the highest bid is all well and good. But it doesn't get you any closer to purchasing this weapon. As it stands, it seems that my sole, opening bid is still the high bid. So everyone keep talking, keep up your bickering, keep up your holier-than-thou attitudes, and at the end of the month, this weapon will be mine.
R 5gp is the bid on the board at the moment. Happy bidding.

I still hold the perrogative of preventing that woman or anyone from profiting from this.
I've got some ductape, a tree, and some fireants with your name on it.

Grayson,
I'll see your five GP and raise it to 25. The blade would end up in the musuem were I to win. The question is how deep are your pockets?

::The diminutive samurai hears of the auction, considers, and decides to make a bid. Sliding aside a panel in the wall of the dojo in his compound, Unagi removes a tightly wrapped bundle of black cloth. Clapping once loudly to gain the attention of the kami, he makes the appropriate invocation and begins to dress.::

I bid $15,000. At the current exchange, that's about equal to 43 gold coins.
And Onyx can still bite me.

Ye are incorrect, Ser Grayson.
In me notice, I indicated a bid of two hundred gold florins, on th' condition that th' auction be stopped.
As no notice was given, th' bid is withdrawn.
Th' current high bid be fourtythree gold coins, so I do bid fiftythree.
If th' auction be stopped taenight, I am authorized tae make th' bid one hundred gold florins.
As fer usin' Church funds tae buy this weapon, mayhap ye should read my missive again. This is nae being done tae glorify th' Church in any way. This is only tae see thet th' Blade will be placed with others thet 'ave been left on display here in th' Arena cavern fer posterity.

Jaycy shook her head at the auction, and frowned. "It's all well and good they want to put it with the other mementos, but it should be offered back to Unagi before that. It should be his choice where it goes. I'm sure he never expected it to be sold like some common thing," she muttered. Quickly, she posted a note.
500 gp.
