Listening to the conversation, Tanith sits there quietly gauging the creatures responses.

"Him?!" the thing screams. It spits on the ground be your feet and continues it's tirade. "Hehranna's more beautiful'n you'll ever be!"
It is clear the thing is finished talking as it springs forth, gnashing its yellowed teeth, but not penetrating your armor.
"I never doubted the Ant Dwarf King's beauty," says Courage, quite puzzled by the curious outburst. Nevertheless, she positions herself on the other side of the creature than Shai [i.e. 5 foot step to flanking position] and attempts to assist him in his grapple, without becoming involved herself [i.e. aid another].

ooc: just giving the others a chance to reply over the holidays. On we go...
Shai has no problems restraining the thing, though its constant thrashing about is making it somewhat difficult to hold on to.
Courage is confused by the things violent reaction, but concludes that it is probably because she keeps referring to its queen as a "he."

Courage clues in that Helranna is a female, and decides to proceed on that basis.
"I'm sorry -- Helranna's your Queen; my mistake. Let's begin again. With whom is your claim registered? What are you mining? Why do you think I care? And who is Helranna?"

The thing only spits at your feet and continues to flail about, trying to escape Shai's muscled arms. It tries to bite him, but can't seem to get the right angle to make it effective, making it look for all the world like a toddler throwing a tantrum. As for your questions, they go unanswered, but the thing stops thrashing long enough to look you dead in the eye and frothing at the mouth. "You should've turned back. I tried t'warn ye! Now it'll be yer heads fer sure!"
It falls into a maniacal laughter and you are convinced that there is no use questioning him further.
[sblock=Tanith]While the others are dealing with whatever the thing is inside, you think you hear a chittering noise coming from farther down the faded trail.[/sblock]

"Guys, I think we might have company in a few moments. I hear noises coming from down the trail."
Drawing her crossbow and wishing she would have saved some of her magics, Tanith moves around the hut a little bit to aid in some cover if indeed trouble comes from the trail.

Courage sighs, and considers making an attempt to club the creature with her fist, knocking it unconsicious.
But Tanith's words shake her out of such thoughts. "Excuse me," she says, and leaves the tent, grabbing her bow as she does so. She stands, nocks an arrow, and looks in the direction Tanith indicates.
