Skilled labor generally has the same worth as finished goods in any given region. <br>  <br> '''Contraband''': This is a catchall category that includes anything banned, most noticably weapons, armor, charms, and books or scrolls. Contraband also includes any items used by orcs, legates, and collaborators, but illegal for citizens to possess, like trained war mounts or watercraft that carry more than a handful of passengers. This category nominally includes magic as well, although anything but a one-use item or an item low on charges would be nearly priceless. On the other hand, possessing such an item can end up having a heavy price. ]]
