"Well met, Oskar Whisperstone. Jack Everfrost, at your service!  Pleasure to have a sturdy dwarf with us again, and we could use some help in our adventures."His grin widens as he gestures vaguely toward the twisting tunnels ahead and the sound of the waterfall. "You're in great company here, Oskar. Not a single one of us truly knows quite where we're going. It's like a grand blindfolded treasure race, and the prize is catching an interrogating a suspected murderer. Ever been in hot pursuit of a killer before? No? Well, don’t worry, first time’s the charm!"He then claps his hands together, an impish twinkle in his eyes. "Your very presence is just the bolt out of the blue type of luck that tells me we're in for some easy adventuring and a nice warm bed just around the corner! Or, you know, more kobolds, ice toads, and death traps."Jack flits down to hover just in front of Oskar, examining him with mock seriousness. "You seem a hardy sort, but tell me, are you ready to climb a vertical rock wall next to an active waterfall? Because our new kobold friends have informed us that’s next on our to-do list. If not, don’t worry; I can provide the very finest motivational speeches... or tie a rope around you and try to airlift you and your gear," Jack's gaze wanders down to the dwarf's paunchy midsection, and then back toward the waterfall, "or at least well, y'know, slow down any potential, uh, descending maneuvers!"</blockquote>
