[QUOTE="tglassy, post: 6995006, member: 6855204"] Karok saw the bugbear's display of superiority against the goblin, and understood it. But this day had done much to turn his mind away from the old ways of thinking. He had done something similar to the bugbear. It had not garnered him much trust. Then, when the Kobold had attacked him, the diminutive creature had proven itself effective in combat. It is possible this goblin would be the same. None should be taken for granted. Karok knew he needed allies in this group, and his time among the human pirates had shown him ways to do that. As the bugbear fell asleep, Karok moved in behind the goblen. When the smaller creature turned to look at him, Karok handed him a ration from his own pack, to replace the one the bugbear had stolen. He did not say anything to the goblin, merely nodding as he handed it over, then Karok walked over to where Saashala was huddling. "I would speak with you," he said to her softly as he sat next to her, stoking the fire. "My tribes value strength above all. It is a constant struggle for every member, as the larger prey on the weaker, and the weakest are culled from the whole. I know this is the way for many of our peoples. As I look at our alliance, I cannot help but believe that a time will come when we must decide who is in charge, and who is subservient. "I cannot allow us to fail in our quest," he went on, not letting her speak yet. "We are not of each other's tribes, so we judge each other based on the strengths of our own people. Thus, we each see the others as inferior. If it comes to blows again, I fear that one or more of us will die as another tries to take power. This will weaken us, and could very well destroy our quest altogether." He looked up at the snake woman's eyes. "We must find another way." [/QUOTE]
