Spawn of Khyber/LEB Judge
Tondrek is about to call up to Rhona about magicks!, the syllable half formed, when Tamarand approaches him.Tondrek is able to sniff out something magical in the area, and his gaze go up to the top of the room. As if on cue, Rohna bounds up the shelves. The goliath has little trouble navigating and when she reaches the top she finds a short tunnel in the wall with a room beyond it. A pile of glittering gold and gems lie in a pile in a relatively dry room.
Tondrek's eyes go wide."Listen, half-orc, you have now twice saved my life and I hate to be in debt to anyone. I have something here that may absolve me of any obligation. It is of arcane origin and I entrust you to take care of it. I need to leave now to hunt down those who took it from my people. As soon as we leave these sewers, I will depart, but I need to leave without anything left unresolved. " the drow whispers, pulling a Khyber shard in the shape of a gear out of a pouch and offering it to the half-orc.
His mouth hangs agape.
His hand twitches.
And there is likely drool. But only a little.
Then, his mind kicks in. His mouth, of course, cannot keep up, but what can be heard is a blistering torrent of arcane mutterings and self-queries. He gingerly takes it, mumbling the whole while.
And then, with no preamble, he hugs the drow. Crushes him really (he's stronger than he looks). Thankyouthankyouthanks!
