"Oh! Howdy there, friend. What can I help you with? Whoa now, you've got a special look about you. You've got a light in you, a charisma that warms all 'round ya like the sun on the prairie. Lady Luck must be shinin' down on me. The folks around these parts call me Partitio. I'm a merchant, and I'm gettin' ready to hit that dusty trail. Y'see I've got big plans and big ideas—too big to handle alone. I was hopin' I'd find a dependable sort like you to accompany me on my travels."
