"What kind of heroes are you people? You're just gonna slit my throat and dump me in the river and be on your merry way? You out to stop that scam in Matna or just take it over?""Shut it," Renlow says coldly, and with a nod from the captain, Nevil stuffs a dirty cleaning rag in the halfling's mouth to force his compliance. Renlow snorts derisively. "This ain't got nothing to do with honor. It's about savin' your skins. Or mine. That one already knows all our faces, where you're headed, and this boat. You let him live, he'll bring back more o' his kin to pay us back with our own slit throats."The halfling begins to scream in protest, but the smelly gag effectively muffles it.  "That is beings the way in Jirago," the half elf says, "Takings of prisoner is bad, show weakness that warrior cannots kill his enemy. Prisoners are sometimes escaping and coming back with more killing; not so oftens with dead mens. Is the way of warrior."But is also beings part of why I am runnings to civilized world," he says plainly. Without further comment, Nevil begins collecting the arms and armor the party has sold to the captain and taking it below, avoiding eye contact with anyone as he does so.The halfling seems to have exhausted himself thrashing about and trying to voice protest through his gag. Though you can't be sure if it's terror or simply the smell of the cloth, he has clearly begun to tear up.[gm]Two out of four seem explicitly in favor of killing the prisoner. I'm gonna let you guys hash this one out. Not that I won't enjoy making your decision as difficult as possible. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devil.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":devil:" title="Devil    :devil:" data-shortname=":devil:" />[/gm][sblock=finances]Sold to Renlow: 500 gp for map (price of bounty)50 gp for feather tokenlongswords: 4x15: 60 gplight crossbow 4x35: 140 gpleather armor 4x10: 40 gpheavy steel shield: 4x20: 80 gp------------------------------------------------** 87 pp from Renlow** 13 pp, 28 gp, 16 sp from sack on halfling ship.Total: 100 pp, 28 gp, 16 sp total coin.
