[QUOTE="Aranel, post: 1268454, member: 13816"] "Aye." Aranel started to loose her temper with them. "And if we rush in with the dozens of them chanting magic. Who is going to be the most surprised when we all end up dead?" She said in an overly calm and reasonable voice. "We have a tired wielder of the divine who cannot heal us if we are hit. Two fighters who could surely use a good meal to bring up their strength before battle, an honourable knight who I am sure needs time to think of a suitable plan for us, no doubt his armour is heavy and his shield arm tired." She looked around. "Myself. I am only tired of hearing us bicker." Her ground out calm gave way to a more thoughtful tone of voice. "If we dispose of most of the bodies then the others may assume that their..." she waved her hand "Whatever, have gone upstairs or down to find more to eat." She grimanced. "If we rest, we would still have the element of surprise as though they may know we are here, they would not know where or when we would strike at them." She turned to look at each of the small group in turn. "Forgive me if it goes against all your ideals but this may require trickery and stealth to draw out a few at a time to thin out their numbers. Perhaps we should even encourage them to look for us. They may know we are here, but we are few and they are many, we still have our wits." She half paused and again looked over the group as though wanting to add more to that. "And they have just savagery as they search." No doubt there was some higher intelligence behind them, as it would take a little brains to have taken the monestary in the first place... Aranel's ears twitched as she realised she was being a hypocrit by standing there and 'discussing'. Still she was on a roll. "What I say is, we let them know we are here, if they send creatures out to look for us, we pick them off group by group. We are small in number and I'm sure each of us can be quiet. They are large in number and in size, they don't hide. It doesn't seem to be in them." She hoped they were following her words and her train of thought. Some days it felt like she must have forgotten to start speaking common... Hoping that it got through, as a plan and a way of keeping them from killing each other she looked to Telerin. "However, if you want to go on in there without aid of the gods, nor aid of fresh strength and will that is your choice. I do not choose to die so willingly at their claws." At the end of her speech she seemed to deflate slightly and draw back. The more she thought of her plan the more she liked it, and even if they did have to charge in, better to charge in well rested and well fed, well prepared...
