"Well, let's not give them time to get anything else set up- especially this 'servant'," Vex muttered as she drew her sword...

[sblock= OOC] Initiative roll (not officially asked for, but Vex intends on moving into 'combat timekeeping' ASAP- if she can get her sword drawn before they react, so much the better, but I don't guess she'll be able to do more than that), 1d20+6= 22; roll Roll Lookup [/sblock]
 

The few Goblins that notice Vex pull out her sword look at her warily, but weapons being drawn in Khyber's Gate is relatively common. They continue their work. The Human and the Hobgoblin haven't yet taken notice of the group as they glare at each other.
 

"Vex, let's first Acre talk with the servant. Just make sure he understand if he doesn't something funny, we push them in the bottom." suggest Malehan.

"Let's not be too harsh," counters Acre. "No need to make more enemies than necessary." Acre gingerly pulls out his greatspear and addresses the crowd of workers.

"Friends! Workers!" the half-elf booms. "We have some, ah, business with Ladoran. If you can just show us the way to where he is, you can get back to work. Thank you."

 

"Eh? Eh?" the Human stutters. He starts walking towards the group. "Hey, you can't just barge into here. Who are you people? What is your business with Master Ladoran?" he suddenly stops and pales a bit. "And, wh wh why are you holding weapons?" he again stutters as he suddenly notices that some of the group has weapons out.

The Goblins pause working and look towards the Hobgoblin. The Hobgoblin doesn't respond at this point.
 

When Vex spoke, her voice was level and calm- entirely at odds with her fury once a fight starts. In goblin, she spoke to the workers, echoing Acre's intent in their own language...

[sblock= goblin] "You lads just stand back out of the way. We've business with the master of this house. If you stay out of the way, you'll not be hurt, and we can pay you for the trouble- but if you fight, or get in our way, things won't be so comfortable." [/sblock]

[sblock= OOC] Aid another for Acre's diplomacy check- mostly by conveying our intent in Goblin. Vex is trying to sound reasonable, so this is more Diplomacy than Intimidation- and it certainly isn't Bluff as she means every word. Diplomacy 1d20+6= 19; roll Roll Lookup [/sblock]
 

The Hobgoblin shouts across the pit and responds to Vex:

[sblock=goblin]
"We don't want no trouble from the likes of you. You leave us alone, we leave you alone. I don't know where the master of the house is. I have to work with this flesh bag excuse of a human. Ask him where his master is."
