"I-I have one, I think, sir, um, Your Honor," he says, finding a folded copy of the Screamer from his day of sightseeing in Daunton. "Kaeysari and I needed to find out when the shows were starting, a-and..." He is about to hand it directly to the head man, but then suddenly decides that this might be considered disrespectful and extends the paper toward Bwarli instead.The kobold then looks around a little nervously, fidgeting, unsure of whether he should drink the rest of his drink, which he doesn't hate, actually. He wonders why the head man is not responding to Cillani's requests. Perhaps the proper honors are not being observed. He tries to think back to what Laeleg said...ooc--assuming nothing untoward happens for a few moments and nobody actively tries to shut him up:"Um, Your, Your Honor, you see, it's like this, we came to make an, I guess an official request. The owner of a plantation not far from here asked us to retrieve at least 5 bushels of zocalti, and we promised to do so. It's imp-p-portant, you see, for a religious ceremony in Daunton. But the zocaltipapatlaca stole the crop, 7 bushels, and murdered the plantation workers. So w-w-we have come to ask for the, the right of r-redress against va-, against vassals, t-to be comp-, compensated for the loss. That is why we are here."I hope, I hope I say nothing that... that offends you. We are desperate, and we were told of your customs by someone named Laeleg, a servant of Ci-Cic-Cip--the First Man. But perhaps we have misunderstood your ways, and if that is true, I hope you are not angry with us..." Papolstaanas falters a little, wondering what sort of gesture to make here, and finally settles on bowing very deeply.[sblock=rolls]Insight (for the boss drinking zocalti): <a href="http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3999#130158" target="_blank">1d20+1=7</a>Diplomacy: <a href="http://www.hwx.it/wizards.com/dice.php?sid=3999#130159" target="_blank">1d20-1=13</a>. Not terrible, so a reasonably coherent speech by Papolstaanas's standards <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />[/sblock]</blockquote>
