Old Bors has just buried his wife, it took all day to dig deep enough in the frozen ground.  Poor thing, wasted away to nothing keeping their children fed, that the cold got her.  Droll had been drinking, one of the few things we had an abundance of, and started running at the mouth.  He said that it was Bors fault his wife was dead, said that if he just kept a bit of every kill for himself and his family, they would have had enough.  Well, Bors didn’t like that, and roughed him up a bit.  Droll never had a chance really, Bors was better than him in an even fight, and with Droll drunk and Bors enraged, the other menfolk needed to pull him off before there was another hole to dig.  The Jarl realized what Droll had said, and ordered his house searched, and under a pile of blankets they found a hole with some trapped rabbits being hoarded.  When Droll woke up 2 days later, the Jarl had confiscated the food and Droll had to hunt the next week with no food at all, punishment for cheating the tribe. Hmm, ponders the goliath, perhaps…  Focusing his thoughts toward Jynxx, he broadcasts his thoughts.[sblock=Telepathy/Jynxx]Jynxx, you there?  It’s Chaku.  I just had a thought.  I think I remember someone commenting about trying to have Castofle make some zocalti dishes for the dwarf right?  How closely do you think he will be watched?  What if we take some of what is supposed to be used for the dishes, and pocket it instead.  He could intentionally “ruin” some dishes and load it up with beans before having one of us “trash” the dish?  Do you think we could skim enough to make the remaining bushels we need?  Then, even if baldboy doesn’t like it, we still get what we need?  Plus, if Castofle actually succeeds in making something the hairlessone likes, we get double the beans, for maybe double the rewards, or we could use them to give Krassus’s goblin pals.  Good thought, or bad?[/sblock]</blockquote>
