Kester shrugs with the affected indifference of an adolescent and tucks the kukri into his belt.
"You ain't worth it anyway, Hooky," he says to the gnome.
"You listen to your olders and betters, boy," says Hookshanks with a sneer. Then, reverting to a grovelling tone he adds, "Thank you, kind sirs, for saving me from this ungrateful brat."
"Magic Lady!" says Kuru, the Shoanti boy. "Scary green man hit me, but I didn't cry."
Kester looks over the other children and then back to Bael and Tristan.
"Okay, looks like Stumpy and the Horser boy are being rescued. Don't suppose you've come for anyone? If not, guess we'll be going. Stick a knife in Lamm for me."
OOC: Don't know how old Kuru was meant to be, but I've made him quite young to contrast with Kester's world-weary attitude.

"Nae, lad. I'm here lookin' fer me nephew. I have rights under the law te protect 'im. 'Sides, ye dinnae see us kill anyone 'ere intentionally did ye? I treated the wounds of a damned half-orc for Torag's sake."
"Aye, heed the wisdom of yer elders. Learnin' to kill so young is likely te bring ye down a dark path."
The dwarf laughs boastfully, "Dinnae be thinking that jes' because I wouldn't let this boy kill ye at the bottom of a fish shop means I won't give testimony o' yer terrible crimes te the sheriff. Now, someone bring me some rope te tie this rapscallion."
"Actually young one, I admire yer spirit. An' I grimace at the thought of ye spending the rest o' yer life on the streets. How'd ye like te be a porter n' lackey fer me? You'll have a comfortable place to sleep at night, three meals a day, and I'll even pay ye a silver piece a day. All ye have te do is tag along, help us carry things, and watch after our animals if'n we ever acquire any."

Bael changes glances with Tristan. The Watch and Lamm... I don't think so!

(OOC - Hee, young is good. That's in line with what I was thinking.)
Maya reaches out to ruffle the boy's hair affectionately, and gives him a nod.
"We will tell the tribes of your bravery when we return. You have a warrior's heart."
She then looks at the others and says, "We should see the children out of here before confronting Lamm. There may be other henchmen waiting that we haven't seen yet."

"Yes, and who believes in demons or devils? This is: But me, the church of Asmodeus, my mother, my grandfather..." Bael says with a smile, speaking of his own ancestry.

Maya's eyes narrow a little at the mention of 'Gobbleguts.'
"We will soon learn if there is truth to that tale," she says softly. "But yes...take the children outside and keep them together. If something happens...if we do not come back, Kuru can take you to the Shoanti tribesfolk if you need a safe place."
She stands up again and looks at the others. "Are you ready to finish this?"
