"I do indeed wonder about the dwarf, but there is no course of action we can take to investigate his sincerity without jeopardizing his trust and the lives of innocent hostages. It seems unlikely that he will betray our trust in the immediate future, and therefore we should wait for the proper place to call his motives into question: a courtroom, or some other form of trial. Until then, our focus should be on coming to a suitable decision, and equally importantly, presenting a united front," the mage proposes. "I do not agree with all your views on this situation, or many other topics, and I am sure you do not hold all my opinions in the highest regard. Nevertheless, we both recognize the value of the appearance of unity before individuals such as our dwarves. I will speak to Quinn if the opportunity presents itself, but a more productive method would be to call together the committee and decide on one set of terms to offer the dwarves, as well as impressing upon the group as a whole the possible consequences of appearing to be a group of squabbling statesmen rather than a united entity."[/sblock]</blockquote>
