Wearied from their ordeal and resulting loss of blood, Kathan addresses the flumphs.
" Your friend, Ulmapoap, is nearby. If you'll accompany us just a little further, we'll show you where he is hiding, " he says.
Turning to Khuther, he says, " Captain Dusky is bein' right about one thing; there is no way we're going to get these two back to the watch station in the condition we're in. "
Kathan puts his hand over his mouth for a moment as he coughs up a little blood, which he wipes on his cloak. " But I think it'll be a hell of a lot cheaper to just hire a few strong lads to be bearin' the burden for us, rather than carry them up by ourselves. "
With that, he looks for a few sturdy guys that can be trusted to help them out for a couple crowns or sovereigns.
Once Kathan has aquired some help, he takes the lead, first heading back towards the Crab, and then up to the watch post. Just before they reach the post, he dismisses the hired hands, paying them their fee. Drawing his cloak tightly around him, Kathan melts away, and a familiar blue-whiskered man takes his place. With that done, they can carry or drag Kenn and the Eel the rest of the way.
