Carrington's Weapon Emporium

Carrington's Weapon Emporium is a business operating within Stormwind City that deals in simple, standard and exotic weaponry. Run by Eric Carrington and his wife Elise, they sell their weapons to those that have the gold to purchase them, provided they are law-abiding citizens. Weapon shipments emblazoned with the Carrington Emporium logo can often be found within the Stormwind Dockyards, often under heavy guard to ensure that the shipments are not stolen.

History
Carrington's Weapon Emporium began as a simple venture by Eric Carrington. A blacksmith by trade, Eric forged his own blades and sold them on the open market for a modest profit. After his marriage to his wife Elise, Eric came to the realization that he would need to bring in more gold than his store was currently making if he wanted to keep a decent standard of living for his wife and children, should his wife decide to bear any. Unable to hire apprentices or increase his workload without causing unnecessary physical and mental stress, Eric moved his business from direct manufacture and sales to trading. Weapons were being crafted by multiple blacksmiths and gunsmiths, many whom didn't have a place to sell their goods and more and more cultures were being discovered each with their own weapons which were extremely exotic compared to the standard blade and spear.

Using some of his saved coin, Eric organized the first shipment of weapons from locations as far away as Kalimdor and Pandaria. While unsure if the weapons would sell once they were in his shop, his doubts were soon disregarded entirely as the shipment sold to adventurers and collectors alike. Among them were many within the Stormwind City guard rotation, collectors who valued a good blade, but lacked the time to venture to strange locales to collect them.

Now the business booms, and rumors of expansion to the cities of Ironforge and Darnassus are circulating around the streets of Stormwind.
