Marie turns to Robert, a frown forming on her face.
"Compensation? Oh, you mean, er... payment..." she frantically begins to empty her pockets, and a few copper coins clatter on the table. Meeting a somewhat unimpressed look from Robert, her eyes widen and she stutters, "I mean, I'm sure I... I would be able to get you some more... please, if you would just... that is..." Tears begin to form in her eyes.
She stops as Grundiz lays a hand on her shoulder, and gently moves her aside.
"Now then lass, don't ye be worryin' about that. Best let me deal with this, aye? Go and check if that table over there needs anything."
Marie nods and leaves your table. The dwarf pulls up a stool and elbows his way into your group, before taking a seat.
"Never could bear to see the girl upset. Must be goin' soft in me old age." he mutters. "Now then, I've been around a good long time. I know how this works. Likely we'd be lookin' fer a band of folk such as yourselves to clear out those Gnolls soon enough anyway. I reckon you'd be doin' us all a favour. And if you happen to find this Lirric fella that Marie's so keen on, then all the better."
There's a loud thud, and a faint clinking sound, as he drops a pouch onto the middle of the table among your plates and mugs.
"Thirty gold crowns, and a couple of fire agate gems. An' there'll be more if you can clear those Gnolls out good an' proper. Although it's good to see that SOME of you at least are just happy to help a poor soul in their hour of need..." he says, glancing at Erevan.
