Not taking any chances, Rhaka goes over to the man and removes any kind of object preventing him from speaking but does not remove the bindings. If he needs reviving, she'll try touching his shoulders in increasing degrees of force.
"I am Rhaka. My firends have nearly died getting thus far, and you look to be in no better condition. Tell me your name and why you are here."
[Sblock=OOC]Just for the record - I am going to be exceptionally spotty over the next three days until probably Monday afternoon. I have a funeral today, an event tonight, I have a 2 hour drive to a gig that my band is playing in tommorrow afternoon and then the drive back, followed by my typical Saturday evening duties, Sunday morning duties, and then another gig Sunday afternoon followed by a meeting Sunday night that will likely last well past my bedtime! If everyone else wants to move along in the story, go ahead and NPC Rhaka.
At this point, she is:
1. Somewhat concerned the bound man might be a trap, although this concern is easily beaten down if the man says he is the hedge mage or Baeleth's friend.
2. Concerned for Kinjon and will not leave at any cost if Kinjon cannot be safely transported. For DM knowledge, Rhaka will stand her ground and die if necessary rather than move Kinjon if there is a chance he will die being moved. This point is pretty much unarguable unless Kinjon's condition changes considerably for the better.[/Sblock]
