One fun detail I can't help but point out:
Sure, we know that she is actually buying a powerful Treasure that will greatly enhance her combat potential, but any onlookers instead see a foreigner spending more money than most peasants see their entire lives on a pretty bell. That she will carry across the seas and presumeably then put on display in her mansion.
We might've reached our highest levels of Arrogant Noblewoman Energy yet.
(Audrey is also seemingly getting overcharged for a piece of Bram Ironjaw merch, but I think that is more understandable for your average Norseman)
As far as everyone else knows, Audrey is currently paying the amount of money a village generates in 5 years for a 'nice curio'.One was a rather handsome bell–stolen from the church that had been sacked on a raid somewhere in the Continent. Well wrought of solid bronze, decorated with images of saints and angels–it was a magnificent look! It wasn't thought of to be useful to be melted down–given the complexity of bronze to re-cast once melted–but the merchant who eventually happened upon it thought it would be a nice curio for an art piece.
