The gnoll admits that his pack searched the house, but other than Henri, they were not looking for anything in particular. He explains that the gnolls that they are searching for fled the main tribe some years ago. It was an act of defiance that the gnolls considered treachery. Worse, they took with them the tribe's beast-speaker. In the years since, the tribe number one dog has been sending out hunting packs to search for the runaways. The runaway dogs must return and submit to the number one dog. That is the tribe number one dog's order. A few weeks ago this hunting pack ran across a trapper who greeted them is gnoll speak. Then he tried to run away. The pack captured him and asked him questions. The said he knew other gnolls in the mountains and promised to take the pack there. They followed the trapper for many days. The pack number one dog got angry. Then the trapper tried to run away and died.Then pack went to camp of humans near here and pack number one dog spoke to number one human at the camp. The pack number one dog says spirit-man knows where runaway dogs are hiding. So hunting pack came here, to find spirt-man.With that the gnoll clams up and becomes uncooperative. He answers further questioning with snarls or threats. Further efforts to intimidate him seem to be ineffective.  By now the afternoon gloom is settling in. Soon it will be threatening to slide into twilight.</blockquote>
