He did sell me a wand of fire today, it's my second wand.
Wands are Ritual TAROT Tools, associated with element of fire, with masculine feelings - but certain traditions consider these to be of air, associated with masculine thoughts.
There are other Ritual TAROT Tools, as well.
Now i have a wand of curing, and a wand of fire.
Wands, like other tools can be used to benefit oneself and others, or to cause harm - it's intention what matters the most, user's intention that determine whether it's black magic or if it's something better.
The wand cost me 1200 gold pieces, now i have 17800 gp in bank, and a little in my purse as well - i've sold some of the powerful arcane scrolls, so i don't lack coin at this moment.
