His expression gives little away. Indeed, at times he seems to almost have drifted off.Finally, after the silence has lingered long enough to indicate everyone has said what they want to say for now, the old shaman clears his throat."You are right. Communication may be a problem. But chances are there will a language shared, even if it is not gnoll or grell. If not, then you have to cross that river when you come to it."'What are the gnoll's intentions?' 'What threat do they pose to the krel? That is what the elders wish to know. They ask that you do what you can to find out. But do not take unnecessary risks. Even if you find out nothing, we are no worse off. You will have to decide for yourselves what risks are unnecessary."The shaman smiles slightly."Which is always easier said than done."The shaman falls silent for a moment. He stares into the fire."Hussik has explained to me how to find the way back to the gnoll camp. Hussik himself will not be going. The experience took more out of him than he wishes to admit. So I have told him he is needed here. Hussik spent a day and a night in the forest, alone and wounded, laying false trials and trying to ensure they could not follow him back here. A day and a night spent looking over his shoulder. He could have been home in a third part of that time. I don't think he expected to make it home."Chances are the gnolls have found the krel. If they have any decent hunters it would be likely."With that the shaman falls silent, as if his thoughts have been pulled elsewhere.[sblock=ooc]Don't want to cut anyone off. If you want to respond to something in the posts above, feel free to still do so.[/sblock]</blockquote>
