Daggerfall:Resolution of Z'en
Contents
They are a temple devoted to Zenithar, the God of Commerce and Patron of Merchants and Mercenaries. Long ago, in their movement's birth, their forefathers made them a temple like no other: one meant to be adaptable, but resilient to the storm of time. They are thus called Resolutions, a far more descriptive term than temples. The Resolution of Zenithar (commonly shortened to the Resolution of Z'en) favors those who favor them -- they do not choose to hide behind words like donations, gifts, indulgences. In proportion to your payment to the Resolution, your skill in haggling with other merchants will increase, but temporarily. If you wish to increase your skill permanently, you may wish to join the Resolution and meet with their trainers. The invitation to join the Resolution of Zenithar is not open. Only those already possessing a few minimum skills will even be considered. It does not reward them to waste their time with neophytes. If nothing else, they are professionals.
