Sterling Outfitters & Expeditionary is a large shop in the Hearth Wall district of Argentum, built into what amounts to a warehouse and lit brightly, with its doors open early. It sells tools, simple weapons, clothing for formal and informal occasions, and shields, and a smithy works in an annex off the main floor.1 Its prices run lower than at Silverwright Tools & Tackle, a smaller smithy nearby.1 It stays open after most shops have closed for the night, and carries all kinds of goods, like a general store on a much larger scale.2
Goods carry the crest of House Sterling, two hands pointed down with one closed and one open, painted small at the bottom point of each shield like a maker’s mark rather than a banner, and worn on the breast of the staff’s green and silver uniforms.1
