Li move cautiously through the alleys. He knew his way around and knew how to react to the scum. The best bet was to blend into the crowd, scowling and angry. Don't ever try to be the brave lone-wolf hero down here.
He approached a merchant stand selling weapons. This was what he needed. He pulled on the merchant's sleeve to get his attention. "What?" The merchant asked.
"Give me that kukri knife." Li demanded. If you didn't come off as an asshole, you won't last long in a drow hole.
The merchant turned around and grabbed the one Li pointed at, handing it to him. Li looked over the knife, checked it blade and handle. 'With some work it'll be better.'
"Are you going to buy or just look at it?"
Li stared at the merchant, paused, and then answer, "I'll take it."
"Fifteen." Li slid the gold across the merchant's little wooden counter, concealed the knife into his belt, and walked away from the stand.
