[QUOTE="Ambrus, post: 2766525, member: 17691"] Damien pauses for a moment after Tremance finishes his explanation and seems to consider the arogant bureaucrat's response before seeming to decide to take the lead in these negotiations. Answering calmly but deliberately Damien says: [COLOR=SandyBrown][I]"I can understand your reluctance to speak with the councillor about the mistakes in your records being that you are fairly new to your current position Sir. I'm afraid however that I don't see why I or any of these gentlemen should undertake this endeavour on your behalf. You offer to supply us with weapons licenses for a period of three weeks in exchange for only a few days worth of work, but surely you realize that any of these able bodied men could acquire a [B]month-long[/B] license for free in exchange for only a single day of effort spent training with the militia. You also suggest that we may acquire some artifacts that may offer us some sort of additional compensation if we were willing to risk our lives in an expedition into the drowning towers. You perceive of course that any able bodied man or woman can sign up to undertake such an expedition with exactly the same risks and rewards; so that is not any sort of compensation at all. In fact, aside from a vague reference of a reward and the gratitude of individuals that you haven't spoken to I see no reason why we'd undertake this mission on your behalf at all. To put it another way, we could in fact sign up with the militia to gain these coveted licenses you offer us, undertake an expedition to the drowning towers as you suggest on our own account, uncover Covis' scheme if it should in fact exist and then report back to the council ourselves to gain this supposed reward and gratitude. You perceive that all this could be done by us without you as a patron. So I ask again Sir, why should we agree to do this service for [B]you[/B]?"[/I][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
