The world is a busy and violent place but things have been calm within T'ien Ch'i since our god slew the dream horror in personal combat. Our masters research and forge and things are as they should be.

However, the fruits of our peace need not be constrained to our borders. We will bend our mystical forges to the service of others for the cost of the item in question plus one gem extra for every five it requires. These extra gems can be of any variety provided they are gems and not blood slaves. We can forge items and boosters of almost every description. Rings of Wizardry, the oh-so-difficult to reach air, fire and earth boosters and so much more (note, no artifacts). All such wonders can pour from our forges should they be requested.

Furthermore, if an item costs nothing but water gems then we will forge it at-cost provided you pay us in fire or death gems. That's right, rings of water, boots of quickness, frostbrands and so much more for no extra cost.

Note that all items which require a 4 or better in any one path (except water) will cost an extra 5 gems as an added service charge because their forging will require the time of our god or one of our immortal heroes in it's creation.
