He is a mystical fellow, I must say.
Not many get to trade with, I shall add.
Be honored that he hath stopped by your polis and dared exchange goods with you.
Be warned that he may come bearing unwanted gifts and other goodies.
Of course, there's always the option scaring the old man away and not letting him take your women and drink your wine.
However, if you're looking for some fun, let him stay at your palace, for he is oh so wise and mystical
Not many know of his origins, or even his name. They call him the Phoenician Merchant. Do not be fooled by this, for that is not his name at all. I do believe, if my sources are correct, that his name is... Larry.
Although he is mystical and magical and oh so wise, he shall not wreak havoc in your polis. He is a respectful and courteous old man who wishes only to trade with you at quite a bargain price.
Be careful tho, as he has caused your colony ship to be parked perpendicular, *** in your face, an ugly way. It's all Larry's fault! :'(
