A Merc's Life: Howl of the Carrion King [03]

Houwlou Groulenas, Olcán Ranger 4

"As you might expect, my advice is more, um, violent, than Tsadok's. I think we should find it while it's asleep, most likely during the noontime, and kill it. If Tsadok wants to talk to it, he can have at it, I say. Just count me out of that operation."

"I don't know a lot about Pesh. Could this creature be 'cooking it' for them? I don't think I want to ally with a drug maker. Or could this be something unrelated to the drug trade? Assuming it is unrelated an ally could be good."

Keeland grins at the Olcán. "I can certainly get behind Houwlou's 'hiked leg' approach to diplomacy if that is the consensus."
 

"All well thought out possibilities. Still I have to believe this thing has had many opportunities to do evil and none of Almah's men have seen anything of the like." Looking to Howlou, "Can we just once meet someone and not expect to have violence? Where is your belief in good?"

"Fine. You can have tea and crumpets with the murderous beast for all I care."

Looking long and hard to see what Houwlou really feels deep inside, Tsadok finally says simply. "OK I'm going to meet it."

sense motive: 1D20+9 = [7]+9 = 16

"Just be aware that you will be without us for some time even if we hie us to your side at the first indication of trouble we receive. This inevitable delay could seal your fate if the circumstances are as dire as I believe they may well be. I respect your dedication to your beliefs but I would not have you go blind into such a situation as this is."

"What did you see of the layout? How open is the building? Is their line of sight from the door to the inhabitant?" He does not say it respect of Tsadok feeling, but Keeland is thinking of providing fire support with his bow.
