Keep the spoils secret from the former slaves. Makes a mental note to investigate the metal when he has some privacy.
In response to Tehn's question, Coldtree responds in Orngaddrin. "Let us head back to Midway at once. I do not want to rely on anyone in the wilds that I do not trust."
Coldtree speaks to the Mhytres in Orngaddrin, and the few words he knows of Maldrog and Kozzog. "You may go your own way, or you may come back with us to Midway. There you will do the same mining work, but it will be for your own benefit."
He will search the Deviard for anything useful.
Taylar says to her in Markidian, "This is not the end of your life, but the beginning. Go inside and collect some supplies. We are leaving this place together."
Taylar intends to non-verbally communicate to the Outliers that they should attack the two adults immediately. Once they understand he will manipulate waylines to increase his motility and attempt to get as close to the trainers as he can to attack with his bludgeons.
Coldtree is pleased that the slaves do not fight with them, since he wants DWAC to take all the credit. He intends to drop his bow and fight in melee next to Tehn. He will manipulate waylines to cause sonic attacks with his hand to hand strikes.
Taylar intends to sneak closer to the cabin, and if possible, search inside to determine if this is another place where the girls are trained to be killers.
Coldtree thinks the only way to negotiate is from a position of strength. While watching the transfer of slave labor, he comes up with a plan. He says, "If we sneak around and free the slaves of this tribe it will weaken them. If we let them continue to use these tactics of forced labor, it...
Observe the village to try and determine any leaders or important buildings. Coldtree says, "I don't want to get any closer and risk an altercation. I think we have enough to report back on."
Taylar says softly in Maldrog, so as not to be overheard, "The path will probably be watched and maybe trapped. Let's try and find a way to reach the cabin unobserved. Perhaps we can manipulate waylines to find a dry path through the bog."
Coldtree intends to put down any attackers still breathing. Search the bodies for anything useful, search the area around the battle, move off and find a safe place to rest and heal by manipulating waylines.
Taylar says in Markidian, "Let's search the corpses for anything useful, strip them and toss them off the path."
Search the bodies and the area around the battle.
Taylar shrugs, unwilling to pursue. He says in Maldrog, "Let them run. It's all they're good for." To the guard who recanted he says in Markidian, "Go now. Your life is yours." He keeps an eye on the man in case he decides to betray them.
