"But the only one who would know is the auction house, so it’s easy for them to think it’s unfair," Fatia explained further. "After all, everyone here has a platinum medallion. They probably didn’t think there was anyone wealthier than them here."
I glanced at her curiously. "Do you know them?"
"The voice sounds like one of the nobles," there was a bit of underlying scoff in Fatia’s seemingly calm response.
"Is it rare to have a platinum medallion?" I asked curiously. I knew Zarfa didn’t have it, but she was relatively new in this kingdom, so...
"The minimum balance is one billion gold," Zarfa said, and some people were coughing at the next table.
I...didn’t really comprehend how much that would be. It had been two years since I was taking care of my own financial situation, and to be fair, at that time I was just throwing money for painkillers and information since I couldn’t be bothered to understand how much money I should spend.
Having numbered days had that kind of effect, you know.
