Last time: "If you wait for me in the Lobby, I will meet you there I just wish to have one last discussion with the goblins before we leave for the Palace." He said making both Narcissa and Draco to nod before they bowed and made their way to the Lobby of the bank. "Dena can you please call for Ragnok, I have few things to discuss with him before we head home." Harry asked making Dena nod before she made, he way to the door and asking the goblin guard to call Ragnok to the room before she closed the door once again and made her way back to Harry to wait.
A few minutes later the door opened after a short knock and Ragnok made his way into the room "You wished to see me, Lord Rahl?" Ragnok said as he made his way to the seat opposite Harry at the table "Yes I did Ragnok I have a deal I would like you to consider as it could be profitable for the both of us in the long run." Harry said making Ragnok lean closer to Harry ion interest "And just what would this deal consist of Lord Rahl?" He asked steepling his fingers and looking Harry dead in the eyes.
"The deal consists of you bringing me your traitors and criminals, goblins only mind unless the witch or wizard has broken the treaty then I will take them as well, I will then confess the person and have them spill their secrets to you this will allow you to weed out traitors and criminals that are in your society, as well as gaining any monies that they may have hidden away from you as they were committing their crimes, I will only request five percent of any monies recovered, as well as possibly an upgrade to my weapons and armour." Harry said his voice calm.
Ragnok leaned back in his chair and studied the young lord before him "Lord Rahl, five percent is too high say two and a half percent, and we will upgrade your armour and weapons and provide any training with the weapons that you will require." He said making Harry lean back and contemplate the offer that the goblin director had offered "Three percent, and only initial training for the weapons, I have a feeling that the way the D'Haran's wield their weapons and the way goblins do are completely different." Harry said making Ragnok nod thoughtfully, before Ragnok stood from his chair and made his way around the table to Harry and held out his hand "Deal Lord Rahl I look forward to seeing how your training comes about." He said shaking Harry's hand when Harry took his. "Now shall we head to the armoury and check out the weapon and armour types that would suit you?" He added waving his hand towards the door.
Following Ragnok through the maze of corridors within the bank Harry looked around and took in the opulence of the walls and doors around him before he turned to Dena, "Dena what is the People's Palace like?" He asked making the woman look at him with a smile of reminiscence on her face. "The people Palace is the Lord Rahl's place of power it is designed in such a way that it only allows the Lord Rahl and those he deems fit to too use magic within its walls, while amplifying the Lord Rahl's power allowing him to do feats of magic beyond most wizards, in terms of opulence it is called beauty beyond ken, many people make a pilgrimage to the Peoples Palace just to see the building." She said as they continued walking "I see." Harry said, "I look forward to seeing it firsthand." They continued walking and talking until they came across a door which had a crossed sword and axe embossed into the wood. "Here we are My Lord." Ragnok said as he pushed the door open and guided, they two humans into the room.
"Director Ragnok what brings you to my humble workshop." The goblin who was smiting a yet unidentifiable lump of metal with a hammer said as he lay the hammer down and placed the lump back into the flames of his forge "Lord Rahl this is Hammerfist he is the best blacksmith of both weapons and armour we have and he will be the one to outfit you with your weapons and armour." Ragnok said indicating the now known Hammerfist "And this Hammerfist. Is Lord Harry James Potter the Lord Rahl and King of Ebinissia" He added indicating Harry to Hammerfist, "Please to meet you Hammerfist I look forward to collaborating with you today if only we have time to get my measurements for both my weapon and armour." Harry said inclining his had a little in respect for the goblins profession and the dedication needed to be known as the best at what he does.
Hammerfist eyed the young man before him "You are the new Lord Rahl huh? Well then you will need the best as you will have many enemies from now on." He said before making his way to the racks of finished armour "Hmm maybe that with this and those, they go very well with these and will work very well together, he is the Lord Rahl as well as a king so can't forget that." Hammerfist muttered to himself as he began to pull pieces of armour from the racks, before he looked Harry up and down and made his way over to the weapon racks "He is slight of build but with training and good food he will rival even Richard Rahl himself now he had strength that not many men could match so he needs a weapon that is light but will allow him to utilise any natural speed as well as the strength he will gain through training, Hammerfist stood before the rack of weapons for five minutes before his eyes alighted upon the perfect weapon "That is it, the perfect weapon!" He exclaimed to himself as he pulled it from the rack and placing it next to the armour.
Once Hammerfist had explained the weapon and the armours capabilities and had guided the young Lord/King on how to put the armour on which due to resizing runes fit him perfectly, he made his way back through the labyrinthine corridors of Gringotts to the lobby to meet with the Narcissa and Draco Black, as he entered the lobby he was met by twin gasps by the aforementioned people as they took in his new appearance, which now consisted of a matte black goblin steel breastplate with ruby and gold highlights, a pair of gold bracers with sapphire runes engraved into them, a pair of gold greaves this time with emerald runes similarly engraved, topped of with a flowing black cape with a red fur inlay, his new sword which was what he was told a long sword was fitted comfortably on his hip in a sheath which matched his breastplate perfectly, all in all he cut a striking figure. "Narcissa, Draco shall we be off?" He asked has he made his way thought the now silent lobby and out of the main doors of the bank, followed by Dena, Narcissa and Draco.
A.N. This chapter fought me it really did but I got there in the end, hopefully I have done this justice, as you will likely notice I have left out the capabilities of Harry's Weapons and armour, the reason for this is that I don't want to give everything they can do just yet, they will come out as and when they are needed however if I don't feel that would work I may make it where he explains what they can do at a later date I'll have to see where it goes from here. Thank you all for reading Potternatzu.
