barking up a different tree

The older alpha settled right into the idea of a trade fair without any further question of who Eligos was, or what Aerie had once been, which after the tension of his encounters with Valhalla and Lirim, and to an extent Ashen, was a relief. "As far as goods, we have no particular specialty as yet," he spoke slowly, "as we are still new to that particular aspect of pack life." Acere didn't need to know that previously the family had focused far more on conquest than trade. "We do have some who craft items to assist in hunts and in battle, but our primary trade is our own skills as warriors. As guards, trainers, raiders... and other such things." He didn't, either, need to be clearer yet about Aerie's willingness to disregard the generally accepted ideas of morality, not without having observed more about Acere himself. "We also buy and sell information obtained by our scouts."
