Yeah, Reese is the main lord; the guy you buy it from,is Jonathan, was a rich merchant, until he spent his vast fortune on furniture and now is forced to live in the Atelier to peddle his wares-To quote the mighty Aggro Incarnate: "Jonathan isn't kidding when he said he went bankrupt, that's 317,000 denarii total geez." Just for reference, a good horse costs six thousand, a considerable investment. The most I've ever had at one time is 50k-You really don't get much more than that without a lot of planning.
Banned for being able to rebound from weight issues. It ain't easy. Congrats!
