To Capizzio, Lord Kyle simply rolls his eyes and says, "Indeed, sir?" and stifles a yawn.
To Kerlan, Lord Kyle says, "I don't believe that there are very many of the White Fist band, I would estimate maybe 3 dozen counting females and children. They have only recently entered the Valley, I believe. At least, that is what I surmise, because I had never heard reports of trouble concerning them before relatively recently. Now, if you want to do some real orc hunting, perhaps I can put you onto the Crushed Skull Band!"
"Ah, yes. We had heard about both tribes of Orcs and I seem to have been thinking of the wrong one. Please, what information do you have about the Crushed Skull orcs?"
OOC: Torbin said the White Fist orcs were talked about a lot at the keep but the letter was for the Crushed Skull orcs. I got them mixed up.

"I only know that they are a larger and more fierce band of orcs than the White Fist. As I understand it, they live in the Underdark and spend most of their time there. We are not certain of the precise location of their lair."
"Have they been threatening the valley m'lord?" Xavier asks.
"Oh, just about what would be expected from your average good-sized band of blood-drinking villains! Oh, not so much, I suppose, just the occasional nighttime raid, mostly against outlying farmsteads, but over the last couple of months, the raids by the Crushed Skull Orcs have been becoming more and more frequent and the damage correspondingly greater. Still, you might possibly do well to...um...'warm-up,' as it were, on the White Fist."
"M'Lord, Can we presume then from your comments that we have your blessing to seek out and eliminate the threat these bands of Orcs represent? And on a related note is there any financial reward for doing so?"
Kerlan give Lord Kyle a confused look. He thinks a moment before responding. "My lord, you summarily rejected such an offer when we were negotiating payment for retaking the keep. You stated that it was a bloodthirsty deed. What has changed that would have you turn to such a course of action?"
OOC: This statement is going from his precious conversation. OOC: If you want me to ignore the inconsistency, I can just edit this post.
Offending post edited.
Kerlan
Post 792 is HORRIBLY inconsistent now that I have edited Lord Kyle's remark. I know you hate inconsistency, so you'd better change it!
OOC: Don't bother editing unless you just want to. I was just trying to give you guys a bonus. But, hey, if you want consistency instead, I can sure do that, too! If you look a gift horse in the mouth, don't be surprised if you find a few cavities!
OOC: You don't have to change it. I just wanted you to know it wasn't unnoticed. Just give some quick explanation and we'll just move on. No problem.

OOC: You didn't have to edit it. It's not the deal that bothered Kerlan, he was just curious about the change of heart. If he just said something like "times are getting tougher and the monsters are getting worse" or something like that, Kerlan would have accepted it.

I know very well what I 'don't have to do,' thank you very much. The situation will remain as currently posted for Lord Kyle. You are expected to edit Kerlan's posts to restore full consistency as soon as possible. End of discussion.

OOC: First of all, I am VERY Sorry. I seem to have annoyed and frustrated you, which was not my intention. It seemed like you were changing the post to make me feel better, but all I was trying to do was assure you that I didn't have a problem with how you were handling it. I don't hate inconsistency but I didn't know if it was intentional in order to make things easier, or you just didn't remember the initial encounter. Once again I am VERY sorry.
I will now move on with the game.
"Wait. As this letter indicates, the Crushed Skull Orcs are planning on raiding human settlements more aggressively soon. Will there be any kind of payment or reward associated with defeating this tribe, or the White Fist Orcs that you have pointed us towards?"
