Impeding the queen's laundry is impeding the queen. <br>\nImpeding the queen is treason.</p>\n</blockquote>\n\n<p>You jest with a counter offer, explaining how his reputation with the queen could be at risk as well.</p>\n\n<p>Malcolm: “Good try Eugene, but it sounds to me that it is your reputation at risk. Now, any more talk like that, and I might ‘accidentally’ mix my most potent stink elixir in with your stain remover. A stench that even your foulest spray is but a spring breeze in comparison.”</p>\n\n<p>You make note not to upset Malcolm any further.</p>\n\n<blockquote>\n<p>I'm going to say to pay the high price for now, and then see if he'll refund us in part if we come back and clean the vials later.</p>\n</blockquote>\n\n<p>You ask if you can pay for priority now, and get a small refund if you make it back in time to help clean the vials. You’re short on time and need to swoop in before the merchants sell out.</p>\n\n<p>Malcolm: “Well, suppose we can do that. Won’t be waiting all day for ya to come back, Eugene. Once I start using my last clean vial I’ll be tending to those myself.”</p>\n\n<p>You nod in agreement, hurry up, hand over your payment, and make your way out.</p>\n"
