@0    = ~Ugh, someone finally bought that awful blade. Keep it as far away from me as possible, if you don't mind. It gives me a nasty rash.~
@1    = ~You helped the Seer, eh? Ha, it's been some time since I've seen him this pleased. I suppose you'd like a reward for what you've done, aye? Hmm... here, this should do.~
@2    = ~Oh, hello. I heard that some newcomer found their way here. The name's Eyeblinker, famed for being the most eye-catching merchant in all of Neverwinter!~
@3    = ~Erm... this is Athkatla. We're not in Neverwinter.~
@4    = ~Wait, we're in Neverwinter? Did I pass through some kind of portal on my way here?~
@5    = ~Oh, yes, that's right. This is Athkatla. All of your cities look the same to me. Regardless...~
@6    = ~How may I help you?~
@7    = ~How does a beholder come to be a merchant? I can't imagine that you're very... welcome in this line of work.~
@8    = ~Eyeblinker can't be your real name, can it? I mean, doesn't it sound a bit ridiculous?~
@9    = ~You're surprisingly well-mannered for a beholder. It's a refreshing experience to look at one of your kind without having to dodge eye rays.~
@10   = ~How do you set up all these tables and shelves without any hands?~
@11   = ~I'd like to see your wares.~
@12   = ~Erm... is that floating eyeball over there a friend of yours?~
@13   = ~Sorry, I need to go.~
@14   = ~Oh, you people and your preconceptions! Not all of our kind are the same, just as I'm sure you would be offended if I were to say that all of you adventurers are smelly, hairy and dumb. Wouldn't you agree?~
@15   = ~Some of us see the value in branching out on inter-racial diplomacy. It's more efficient for business, you see.~
@16   = ~Excuse me? There is nothing ridiculous about a name like Eyeblinker - and *yes*, it really is my name. How is it any worse than your strange <PRO_RACE> names, eh?~
@17   = ~I happen to quite like my name. It's rather suitable to my character, and so I wear it with pride.~
@18   = ~My father always said that it's good for business to remain a courteous gentleman in all situations.~
@19   = ~Hands? Bah, you and your hands. Do you think it's impossible to live without those silly wriggly appendages? My goodness, you lot always seem to think we couldn't even open a door if we wanted to. Well, we can, just so you know.~
@20   = ~Believe me, I take care of my workspace quite well. I keep it spick and span at all times. Though your... concern is appreciated nonetheless.~
@21   = ~Is there anything else you wanted?~
@22   = ~Ah, certainly! Please take a good look around, though I request that you clean your hands before you touch.~
@23   = ~Who, him? Oh, that's my cousin, the Seer. He's a rather charming young man when you get to know him, but sadly, fate was cruel enough to only bestow upon him a single eye. It's had... quite the influence on his personality. But he always wanted to see the world, so I let him tag along on my trading journeys. Perhaps he'll be able to venture out on his own one day, but he'll need at least one more eye first.~
