A gem-encrusted ring is pictured on a sign outside of this establishment. The doors and windows are open. The building is small, but looks extremely sturdy; the shutters and doors are of heavy wood, reinforced with iron bands.
Haskali Ull, the jeweler/moneychanger, tries to make a living from the travelers passing between Keoland, Gran March, Bissel, and Geoff who require his services. His business has fallen off considerably in the last year. After dark, his doors and shutters will be locked. Haskali and his overbearing wife live here with two guards.
He is skilled at working with stones and soft metals, and will negotiate a reasonable fee for this work. He will also exchange types of currency for a 5% charge.
The shop has been well established since the early days of Orlane. It carries a good working reputation with it's customers and the people of Orlane. The Moneychanger's Shop is fully supported by the people of Orlane and during all business hours one can always find at least two guards stationed inside the entrance.
The bank offers a fairly straight forward service. Individuals can deposit their hard-earned coin within the secured building and withdraw the same amount at a later date. Information about the amounts of transactions and the bank's clientele are kept secret. The banks handling fees are 3% for all coin deposits and storage (no matter the length of time the bank holds a customers coin and valuables) and 4% are non coin valuables stored within the bank.
The Moneychanger's Shop does not offer loans to customers. It is strictly a location within Orlane that exchanges coin and stores valuables for those in need "at a small fee of course". Storage of items has no time limit but the storage fees do adjust with the length of time the items are stored here.
