"Magazines are sold separately. One gold coin each. Allows rapid reload under pressure."

He assumed the enthusiasm was tied to profit margin.

"Maintenance is included in this package," she added. "Every six months, no charge."
He nodded slowly.
"Now the exclusive weapons," she continued, lifting the Derringer.
"Two barrels. Two quick shots. Heavy recoil. Effective range: ten meters. Cost: ten gold coins. Qualification required: minimum one thousand gold coins of prior transactions with our store."
Magnus's brows knit faintly.
