Comic #767: Trade Secrets (Patreon)
Content
All three of these NPCs are real and in the trade district of Stormwind. The comic originally was about Gunther lamenting the lack of business (they hadn't had a customer in 15 years). It was originally going to end with someone riding a vendor mount (like the yak).
I stood in this shop in Stormwind yesterday and took screenshots in preparation for the comic. While I was taking screenshots, about 10 people walked in and out, and I realized they were either selling greys or repairing. That gave me the idea for the current version. The final panel was either going to be Elaine Trias, in the cheese shop, or Julia Gallina in the wine shop. The cheese shop is closer to Weller, and "Mistress of Cheese" sounds a lot funnier and more useless than "Wine Vendor", so I went with the former.
