Quality: Average
Description: A unique creation created by enchanting a bag with spatial magic that allows a user to store items in a pressurized sub-space. This item can store up to 50 things and reduces their weight to 1% of the total.]
Darius raised an eyebrow. So, it was the fabled Bag of Holding, huh? He definitely heard of this item as it was quite common in settings like this, and it was a makeshift means to make storage easier for denizens of such worlds.
Darius also knew that this kind of item should be very expensive, which further proved that Foldo was a man of good means. He began to look forward to the kind of things Foldo would take out for him to appraise.
The older man wasted no time in doing so too. He carefully took out 10 items first, placing them on the table before Darius one by one.
Darius was in no rush to Analyze them. He waited for Foldo to withdraw the items he felt he needed to appraise and let the man introduce them one by one.
Foldo pointed to a strange pocket watch that glowed with a kaleidoscope of colors. "I've acquired this item from an elven family that was on the run from some enemies. In exchange for smuggling them out of the area, they paid a hefty sum."
Foldo suddenly smiled. "Of course, I had them drugged and shackled to become slaves. In my entire career, I've never made as much profit as I did that week, haha."
Foldo then held up an egg-shaped stone that looked similar to marble. "This was sold to me for the price of 300 bronze by a hunter who found it in an abandoned nest."
The next item the older man picked up was a strange rectangular device, which Darius identified easily without even needing to Analyze it. "This is a strange device that was smuggled from the Gravitas Continent. Contraband from there is the hardest to get our hands on due to their extreme xenophobia and the absurdity of their creations."
Foldo placed the item down and picked another, which was a small ornate dagger, lined with rubies at the hilt and a blade-edge that was colored black. "As for this, I know where it's from and some of its history. However, I don't know what exactly it does or how to use it."
Foldo then switched to a tattered scroll that looked like it would crumble to ash if not handled properly. "This one I obtained here, in the outskirts of Andrato. There was a strange outbreak of Undead in the past which caused me many losses. When the necromancer responsible was found and killed, it was found on his person."
Next was a small quill that had a glowing feather as its shaft. The feather seemed to radiate intense warmth that heated up the room. "I know this to be a quill made from the legendary feathers of a Phoenix. There was no way I could buy something like this, so I had to steal it from a client who wanted to auction it at the black market and kill them."
Foldo held up an arrow that had a weird heart-shaped head and its shaft was a bright pink color. Its fletchings were frilly and seemed impossible to fire from a bow competently, almost like this was a prop.
"As much as I want to believe that this is a child's toy, there have been some strange phenomena occurring around it that makes me believe there's more to it."
He then gestured to a tome that sat on the table. The book looked positively malevolent, with a strange and dangerous blackish energy coiling around it as it shook on the table, trying to break its bindings.
"This item is a demonic tome of some sorts, that much I know. However, you can understand why I am hesitant to open it and find out what exactly it does."
Foldo sighed and then looked at the last but one item on the table, which was a chromium coin. "This is another piece of rare contraband from Gravitas."
And then, the final item; a strange ruby that seemed hollow in the middle. "This one is believed to be the former phylactery of a Lich, but after being purified, I have no idea whether it has any use besides acting as a trophy of sorts."
Darius, who had silently listened to the introductions of the items so far, smiled and nodded when it came to an end. "Do not worry, I shall identify all these items for you, as well as how they function if possible."
Foldo looked relieved and relaxed into his couch as he waited for Darius to begin. For that matter, Darius went ahead and Analyzed the first item he was introduced to, the rainbow pocketwatch.
[A Stitch in Time - Unique

Quality: Perfect
Uses: 9
Description: A legendary creation of Alchemy, Magic, and Enchantment, this pocket watch is said to be able to reverse time by a certain amount, returning its user to a point in the past where they could avoid a currently occurring danger.]
Darius' lazy glance he gave the watch sharpened and his eyes gleamed. Foldo noticed his look and his heart began to thump. Had his master found out something special about the item?
"Foldo." Darius called nonchalantly.
"Yes, Master." Foldo replied dutifully.
"Please make sure there are no unwanted eyes or ears in the area, for what we are about to discuss is very crucial."
"Right away, Master." Foldo replied as he rang a bell.
Nothing visibly happened when he did so, yet Darius felt the area had become… quieter and more muted. His ears even began to buzz a little, which interested him, but he had another agenda.
"First things first, Foldo. I shall appraise all the items in a row and tell you of their features. After I tell you, I will never again repeat them for they must not be heard by any man lest the Gods themselves come down to raid you."
