As one of the seven largest merchant guilds in the Forde Trade Union, the guild's headquarters was located in the inner section of Morante City, and occupied a large area that encompassed almost one whole street.
The Peterson Merchant Guild had built itself up by dealing furs with long distance carriages.
The guild only had six ships , two large-class long distance merchant vessels and four middle-class merchant vessels. They mainly used those to transport their own stock, but they didn't control any trading route. Had it not been for Knight Charade and the deal he struck with Viscount Tebri, they wouldn't even have a proper sea trade route. The business wasn't big, but it's far more convenient than transporting things by land.
When the Forde Trade Union implemented the nobility system, the Peterson Merchant Guild targeted the lands of the former Krissen Empire. The Peterson Merchant Guild was prepared to take over the northwestern area of the Redlis Kingdom and set up their dominion there.
President Peterson invited Tebri Tim over for a discussion. He said that he would be willing to aid the guild by convincing the nobles of the northwestern area of the kingdom to take President Peterson as their senior noble after the formation of the dominion. After that, the nobles there, including House Tebri would become part of the nobility of the trade union.
The Chikdor Merchant Guild would give control of the trade route from Hidegold Bay to the dominion of Viscount Tebri to the Peterson Merchant Guild, and promised that they wouldn't interfere with that. In exchange, they had to take a neutral stance between House Norton and them and not aid any side.
