[QUOTE="moritheil, post: 4256228, member: 30610"] Roillard grins at Kaelvorr, perhaps nervously. "But of course, and how kind of you to warn me. I have said, I believe, that we do not know much about the goblins. We know even less about the Lady. I could repeat some of the wilder rumors, of course, about drug use or cannibalism, but I do not place much stock in them. Thus far everything I have said to you is that which I feel is most accurate. "Now may be a very good time for me to ask you this - would you prefer that I report in greater detail and less accuracy, or that I only report what is almost certain? If it's the former, I could tell you some truly outrageous rumors from the last drunken army deserters we caught. Let's see, Highpriest Althen has a secret tunnel from his room to a bordello. The secret weakness of Lady of the Hills is garlic." Roillard arches an eyebrow. "You see? I certainly understand your desire for more knowledge, but unsubstantiated rumor, aside from not being my specialty, is a very dirty field. I would not wish to give you inaccurate information that would be, as you say . . . acrimonious." He pauses, looking around, and his eyes stop on Gabriel. "But unless I miss my mark entirely, we have one here who is far more qualified to judge such matters. I will happily leave such decisions to him in the future. "For now? The goblins are tribal, and called savage, but they have fielded an army of thousands. That speaks of organization. The Lady is gathering an army and doing nothing. That speaks of some grand design. The army of the humans is here, but does not move to finish us off. That speaks of fear." His eyes flicker. "One last thing. I did not want to doubt the word of one of you, but your plan for killing the priest is really not what I would suggest. Of course violence is your area of expertise, not mine, but any man who can kill an experienced frost giant in single combat probably has some skills that should not be dismissed. If you insist on my pointing out all possible difficulties, he is the first to come to mind - behind the army, but I doubt you require my advice to not pick a fight with thousands of trained soldiers."
