Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tellerian Hawke" data-source="post: 7921745" data-attributes="member: 6790669">Hawke looks quizzically at Sphynx, but says nothing; his mind is abuzz with Sphynx's last statement, and he can't think what to make of it. But he says nothing outwardly, because on some instinctive level, he suspects that the young Elf is telling the truth. Befriending him did seem to come very naturally.Hawke muses inwardly, in his own thoughts, ~Past life? Olympian Deities? We've known each other for a couple of weeks! 1,001 years of imprisonment? It doesn't seem likely... and yet... why does my chest feel so heavy? Why do my thoughts become so cloudy when I try to focus on what he said? Perhaps there is something to his claim after all? I need to have a talk with Nimbar. And with Sir Walter. These are strange days, and they seem to be getting even stranger, with every passing moment.~After pausing for a few moments, seemingly deep in thought, Hawke snaps out of his reverie with a start.Hawke (In Common): "I understand if you don't want to seek out the brood den. I'm nervous about it myself. But I believe we can prey upon their proclivity for cowardice. I think seeing the head of the Queen on the end of a spear will squash their resolve. She was by the far the fiercest one among them. We don't need to kill them. We simply need to scare them into submission. Get them to surrender. I think this can be done with very little bloodshed. These creatures are not the true force of malevolence here; the Wendol, they are the ones who need to be dealt with. We've already seen the depths of their depravity. The Zombie ceremony we witnessed really stuck with me; I can't get that image out of my head. If we kill the Wendol, the other Humanoid tribes will probably go back to bickering with each other, and become far less of a threat to this region. But first things first: let's deal with the Kobolds. Once the Kobolds are out of the picture, the Wendol's influence will be weakened. I don't care where they flee to, as long as they are no longer allies of the Wendol."Nimbar nods, "Hawke is right, we should find the den. And if these Kobolds are anything like the ones in our homeland, they are not only cowardly, but honorable as well; they follow a code, even if that code is savage and immoral by our standards. If they give their word, they will keep it. If they surrender and agree to flee far away in return for sparing their lives, then they will do that;But first, let's make use of the belt that Quixt mentioned, and of any potions that anyone might have to spare. There are also four potions among the Chieftain's belongings. And though we can't be certain, it's almost assured that the two blue ones are some sort of healing elixirs. Blue is a common color for healing salves."EVERYONE: What do you do?</blockquote>
