| **Royal Krondor Company’s Factory and Warehouse**: The Krondor Company has been granted an exclusive monopoly over the export of Ginster Berries and Ginster powder from the island. All Ginster berries harvested on the island must be brought to this place and sold for 5gp per 10 pounds of raw berries. The ten pounds are dried and powdered down to a 1 pound portion of powder which sells for a minimum of 15gp on the mainland. Ginster Berries are harvested only in the months of Seventh-Month and Eighth-Month and the powder is exported by the end of Ninth-Month each year. During the months of the harvest and export there is an unsavory crowd of company thugs (at least 40) at the factory and a small fleet of company ships cruising the coasts looking for smugglers. During the rest of the year, there is a single company ship in the area and only 15-20 goons at the factory. | **Royal Krondor Company’s Factory and Warehouse**: The Krondor Company has been granted an exclusive monopoly over the export of Ginster Berries and Ginster powder from the island.
