You can always count on GGG to come up with some damn good lore.
Curiosity is followed by ambition. Ambition, is followed by madness.

These are not the typical divas that stand around in town posing while the Exile saves the world. These are men and women on a quest. They're battle-hardened true believers in a cause.

That also meant they couldn't be doing this for money, as one might otherwise expect from a merchant. The currency uncovered in this process had to mean something else to them.
