    Locutus politely declines his head towards Garcus at the mention of his name. "The matter that brings us to Icecreek is pressing, but it can wait a short while. It will also concern Krolis and the owners of those other docks - ", Locutus motions to the other two large docks, "Would you prefer...

    "That sounds like a good idea. Could you introduce us to Garcus, please?" Locutus shakes his head sadly. "Sorry. I'd probably take such a long time you'd probably be better off doing it yourself."

    Locutus scans the village while nodding to himself. "This looks more than adequate for our needs. Thank you Hollus, for bringing us here, and for the companionship on our voyage." "Is it unusal for Garcus to not be on the lake? You seemed surprised that he was here."

    "Why don't we find Garcus. If he's not interested in speaking to us, he can stay on the lake, and we can continue on to town."

    "oof. That was unpleasant." Locutus turns to Hollus. "I'm sorry. I've forgotten where we left our conversation. We were talking about Icecreek, and the folks that you know there. I'll most likely be dealing with Krolis, possibly Garcus. You've said that Garcus was a skilled dealer, but fair...

    "True, but this one is at least different in that the docks at the landing site were destroyed. Hence our need to find a new place to go ashore." Locutus nods. "Merthus? I hadn't even heard that name. Do you know anything else about him?"

    "I couldn't agree more. Tell me, other than not to underestimate Garcus, is there anything else I need to know about him when I sit down to broker a deal with him? What about Krolis Firebeard, do you know him? Have you made any deals with him?" "No doubt you've heard the tales of this past...

    "If he's on the waters, he's probably working. I have no wish to disturb his livelihood for a matter you feel would not be important to him." (Ok. I just wanted to be sure I had a chance to focus myself prior to needing to expend those foci.) Locutus climbs aboard.

    (OOC: I'd like to psionically focus myself and my psicrystal while on the way to the docks, if I'm not already focused. I should be able to take-10 and succeed) Greetings Hollus, We are from the Monastery of the Quiet Waters. We have been instructed to request your assistance in journeying...

    Locutus certainly wouldn't have any experience throwing punches, but I'm sure he's sustained damage in his own style of sparring.

    "I am also hesitant to make a promise I don’t believe I will be able to keep. But if we have the intention to keep the promise, and are unable to keep it after our primary mission is accomplished, I’m sure a renegotiation could be brokered with the village." "I suspect that something will need...

    Hmm. Perhaps we should reconsider that. Once we have completed our primary mission, would it not be appropriate for each of us to collect a small bag of iceberries as gratitude to the village for the lease of their property. Especially if their hospitality was integral to our success.

    "It would seem to me that we should arrive directly at the docks. The viallage has a history of trade with the island, so they will have no reason to view the arrival as hostile. We can leave the weapons in the boat, and offer them if they are necessary in the negotiations." "If this man...

    Locutus bows his head deeply; "I defer to your wisdom, as always." "Before I can make that choice, I must know how the villagers will view an arrival from the Abantine to their docks. My presence will be colored by their perceptions of the Abantines. If they view the Abantines as allies, they...

    Description of Locutus There is something about Locutus. People just like him. While sociable, his dedication to the order's purpose is never in question. He is smallish, but neither frail nor sickly. Like most monks, he has no hair, probably due to shaving his head. His features are sharp...
