Merrick did his best to translate Shamal's words - even though he didn't under stand exactly what some of them meant - he assumed Sheik meant chief or lord and translated it as so.He didn't particularly like this chief, who seemed to be hording all the food and wealth for himself while his people seemed to live in squalor.  But he supposed he couldn't expect much more from kobolds living in caves.  Even his own people let greed and power take them.  There was inequality everywhere.  He wondered if dethroning this leader would lead to a better system for the tribe or if some other tyrannical leader would take over instead.While Shamal did his song, Merrick used his subtelist sign language, using an excuse to translate something said by the chief to point out the statue of Bhaal.If he was offered raw eggs, he ate them, not wanting to insult the chief.  He usually only had raw eggs as a hangover cure.  In return, he offered the flask of spirits to the Chief.1[SPOILER="OOC"]1. Using the Flask taken from the wagon as a means to AID action anyone bartering with the chief and giving them advantage.Diplomacy notes:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">We should exchange passage for vengeance on the people who killed the dragon (if that's what happened)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">We should save the the barrel of food to exchange for the statue!!!</li> </ul>- As an aside, we have the sending stones so we should send a report once we have an update.[/SPOILER][/SPOILER]</blockquote>
