[QUOTE="Maidhc O Casain, post: 5599420, member: 29558"] Halál's gaze settles on Marshan as the warrior speaks. He regards the man gravely for a moment before taking a deep breath and beginning the most impassioned - and longest - speech those gathered have heard from his beak. [COLOR="DarkOrange"]"Do I want to ask permission of the town's legal and spiritual authorities before I go rummaging around in the sacred ground where their loved ones are buried? Gods, yes! "I think we need to decide if we're working [I]with[/I] these folk or [I]in spite[/I] of them, and act that way. My vote, if we're voting and working together, is that we work [I]with[/I] them. First, it's their town. Second, they hold the keys to a [I]lot[/I] of potentially useful information; being on their good side is in our benefit. Third, I'd rather not end up on the wrong side of a lynch mob if we step wrong and they decide we're the ones behind the Professor's death, or the desecration of the statue, or any of the hundred and one other things that they might be in the mood to blame us for. And finally, I'd not want them digging through [I]my[/I] friends' and loved ones' graves without my approval; I'd like to treat them the same way as long as we have that luxury. "I want to find out what happened to the Professor. As his friend, I want that. As a servant of Pharasma, I want to find out if there's anything more to this zombie business than a couple of dead bodies deciding they were happier moving around. It's Ustalav, so there probably is more to it, and it's my duty to the Lady to put a stop to that crap. I'll go about those things as diligently and ruthlessly as I have to, and I'll work around the law [I]if necessary[/I]. But until it becomes necessary, I'd rather keep the law on my side."[/COLOR] As he winds down, the Tengu sits back in his chair and looks around more calmly.
