The apparent leader scowls as Denizel introduces himself.
"I don't care who you are, you can take yourself back to wherever you came from." He points off into the distance behind the group. "And if that's your wagons tell them to go elsewhere."
The men behind him seem less sure and begin to talk worriedly amongst themselves. One looks up in concern. "It's not safe," he mutters. One of the men even goes so far as to nod in greeting; Denizel is clearly persuading them.
Up the street behind the crowd a heavy, old man with wispy fly-away hair begins hurrying towards the group.

Sylla leans forward in the saddle to get the leader's attention, and when she speaks, her voice is quiet and chillingly even. “I think you misheard my companion, good sir. What I heard was, 'We wish you peace and prosperity.' But apparently, what you heard him say was, 'The angry-looking elf with the black longbow is about a hair's breadth away from pinning your tongue to the back of your skull.'
“So, friend, are you sure you heard correctly? Was it 'peace and prosperity' or … the other thing? Because I'm quite sure that my companions as well as everyone in that caravan truly desires peace and prosperity. But if you are convinced you heard differently, then I for one can be … accommodating.”

Denizel pauses, keeping his welcoming smile as Sylla finishes her little speech. He slowly scans the crowds reaction before continuing.

Maui senses the hostility of the villagers despite his lack of vision. He doesn't understand the words spoken by Sylla but he hears the implicit threat in her tone of voice. Not really understanding if Sylla is awaiting for a reply from the villagers Maui calls out. "Maui hears you don't want te strangers here. Te strangers came to my island and te strangers stole our lands, our women and our pride! Maui understands you even though te crows claws stole my sight. But we do not come to steal. Te crows who stole my sight... they were feeding upon te dead. Te dead lay forgotten close to your home. Murdered. You were too scared to help them? You are afraid! But not of us ... of someone else. We are strangers but not te enemy. What do you fear?"

Uncertainty crosses the supposed leader's eyes mixed with fear of the elf. He flinches back from her words and the naked threat. "Peace and prosperity," he mutters but even as he does so his face twists in anger. Even so, he clearly doesn't feel confident enough to act on it and instead turns away and pushes quickly through the crowd and away from Sylla.
Most of the others seem unaware of the byplay between the man and Sylla and his sudden departure sets them to a confused and uncertain whispering when Maui speaks up.
The old man reaches the crowd and begins pushing his way through. "What is this? Northern strangers in Stokennor?" Pushing his way to the front he stares up at Sylla, Maui, Denizel, and Vincenzo. "Fear? Our village has seen hard times, brought by the hands of strangers..."

"Yes, please tell us of your trouble. We are only part way of our journey and any enemies to your settlement will very likely be shared. At the very least we can likely help ease your hard times with a little trade and healing."
Denizel keeps his smile and positive energy in his voice. Luckily the others keep their opinions to voices in his head. That was very noble. . . this is disgraceful. This town will be nothing but a bore.
