Deuce Traveler's Last Stand of the Dorinthians

[Fenris]

We're in a bit of a tough spot but this sounds best to me.

Also, I am curious as to what quarrel the Empire thinks it has with Dorinth.

We totally owned them at the International Checkers Championship and they got pissed.

Of course the commander is pretty sure you are Dorinthians, and your accents will likely give it away, although you may attempt to bluff them and say you are from an unaligned village that is along the border of what was Dorinth.

As for their gripe, Dorinth was just crushed and enslaved by the Tallione-Cassus empire (Cassus being their weaker neighbors incorporated into the empire). Originally I had a Russian sounding name for the Imperials, but I decided to change it for a more Roman sound after the big crash.

I always give my players a way to get out of tough spots... and I'll just throw in that the party notices that the Imperial soldier you are facing has a slight Dorinthian appearance to him... perhaps from a not-too-distant relative.

So what say you?

The call is yours, and Danica will go with it. I'm certainly content for you to be proud of your lineage, if that's your decision.

 

[Fenris]

Alright the die is cast. I had to be careful in writing. I made no lies, but did not tell the whole truth. But then that is the art of diplomacy

Hey, isn't Danica Dorinthian too?!? Be proud of your heritage too!

 

[GlassEye]

Well spoken, Fenris. You've begun the parlay quite nicely.

Danica has very little at stake in her Doriginality. But nice speech, Fenris--very Homeric.

Thanks KS. I tried.

And my apologies for hogging the spotlight, but we can continue in a more eglatarian manner for a bit

'course I think Chalik will have some quick talk to get us in as well. So his turn will come soon.

Chalik is trying not to swallow his tongue at the moment. He's not going to be happy with the idea of letting the Tallionians (sp?) violate that tomb. And his superiors will be even less happy.

Should prove interesting.
