Welcome!! We have tons of unique, exotic wares from as far north as Harmonia and the Nameless Lands, and as far south as Kanakan!!

—  Gordon

Gordon was the sole founder of Gordon's Mercentile, his own trading company run out of Gregminster. Gordon became a wealthy trader within a generation, having experienced many ups and downs, but his true goal was to create "Gordon Group", a chain of trading concerns throughout the land.

When he met the leader of the New State Army during the Dunan Unification War, Gordon realized the potential for expanding his business. As such, he agreed to set up shop within the New State Army on one condition; that its leader prove himself a capable trader.

When the task was complete, Gordon gladly bequeathed his store to his son, Coates, expecting him to maintain Gordon's Mercantile's high standards and success, and moved his business to Jowston.

Following the war, Gordon would remain in the new Dunan Republic, travelling around the nation to expand his business.
