Bills of Exchange are a unique type of currency that can be used exclusively in Brynn. They can only be accquired in the Bank.

Bills of exchange were invented by bankers of the Bronze Isles. This convienient trading tool garnered such popularity among Brynn merchants that they brough it with them to the Continent.
