Personality
Volk seems preoccupied with something important, and is concerned with finances. She alludes to obols being "her ticket out of this place", and that obols are the main currency her benefactor deals in.

General

 * Yes, yes, welcome. I'm very busy. Consult my library or assistant if you have questions, or my Vend-O-Matic if you want to make a purchase. Time is obols, you know.

Simple Recipes Vol. 1
Enclosed are the various recipes that I have encountered. This collection will be appended in new volumes as I discover more. Perhaps this will draw in more customers if offered as a "free" repository. I'll still charge them entry though.

Obols The main currency that my benefactor deals in, and my ticket out of this place. Obols are pressed coins assembled by surrounding a gold, emerald, or diamond block in copper ingots. A netherite ingot can be substituted for the block to form the highest craftable grade of Obol. A fifth, extremely rare obol exists but the method to assemble it eludes even me... These coins have value to local merchants and some species of plants.

Wildlife The local wildlife drop pelts suitable for a number of simple sewing projects. First and foremost, they can be assembled with SoxBux to form simple pouches for item transport. 7 Pelt and 1 SoxBux will start you on your way. The bags can be upgraded by crafting the old bag with progressively more SoxBux to a maximum of 3, and then End Shards are required for further upgrades. I can charge a premium for these! Pelt can also be applied in large amounts to leather helms to form a helm in the visage of a bear. These bear helms can then be dyed white or black. In theory, perhaps I could use these to fool bears temporarily into letting their guard down. Elk horns, pelt, and a leather helm also similarly form a dashing set of horns. These helms may not have effects for now, but they should certainly prove useful in the future. Finally, pelts can be tanned by laying them out on a campfire. A single pelt yields enough surface area for two pieces of leather once tanned.

Trivia

 * Volk apparently does not treat Fizgig very well...
 * Volk may be in some serious debt, judging by her concern surrounding obols.
