At the mention of wine, Mauricio perks up a little. "I have not had a chance to sample the wines of this area... so I will hardly turn such an offer down." He greets Gurmok's personal introduction with a polite shaking of hands, his fingers almost enveloping the goblin's hand in the process. Mauricio likewise nods toward Gex. Before he can ask the gnome for a spot-clean, Mauricio notices the merchant's breakdown. It is one thing for a vendor to begrudge losing a day's business, but... Zetath is behaving more like his firstborn son is being taken away. Mauricio waits for Kharesh to apologize for assaulting the man before making his own approach.
"Are your current finances so tight that you cannot survive a week?" Rather than being judgmental, Mauricio's question cuts to the heart of the matter like a verbal scalpel.
