If speed is not an issue, you schedule a third party to go around to the recipient, carrying the proper key. You schedule the "key-holder" to visit the sender a few days AFTER the shipment has left and to arrive at the destination a few days AFTER the package has arrived. The key holder then unlocks ...

New Vendor

Hello there, I've placed a vendor by the entrance to my cabin, who is currently selling the various goods I've scribed (runebooks, BOD books and a few scrolls at the moment.)

My Cabin is located just outside the north gate of Moonglow.

Feel free to drop me a line if you have any special requests.
