Urkulyr looks at Irontusk and sighs.
"Nah. This guy's too tough a nut to crack and I won't be party to actually killing him in cold blood. Let's just turn him over to the city guard. They've got those two other guys that know he's the one that took what we're looking for. The City Guard will probably have a better chance of finding out where what we're looking for is, and even if they don't they're the ones that have the authority to deal with thieves, not us."

“You are right, of course. The intent was not to let him drown, but it could happen on accident even, which would not be good. I don't have such a black heart in me.” The elf smiles. “And obviously I'm not good at interrogations either. But I do have a few qualities, which you could already observe, that might prove useful, nonetheless.”
...and if you say a wrong thing now, you can witness them right here... Lhuna thinks, realizing how ambiguous her statement was.
“Let's bring him to the guards then. I hear there are harsh punishments for thieves, he will wish we had actually thrown him into the water,” she ends with a wink, giving Irontusk a last chance to reconsider before his fate is sealed.

Irontusk never bats an eye at Urkulyr and Llhuna's comments, but something about the way Kel says "keelhaul" seems to unnerve him.
"Hold on folks. Let's don't be so hasty ... look, if youse promise to let me go free, I'll tell ya where ta find da key. Let's not have any more talk of ... *ulp* keelhaulin'"
OOC: I gave Kel an intimidate test with 2 Aid Another's as well as a favorable circumstance bonus since a sailor would know how to threaten a river rat like Irontusk. He's willing to negotiate now.

Irontusk reaches into his pocket and produces a scrap parchment, which he hands to Urkulyr.
"Here's da map o' where I was s'posed ta take da key. I met wit two members of da Green Daggers. One was real sick. Da udder one was a rich-lookin' elf. Dey offered me 100 gold for dat key. I dropped it off earlier this morning. Dey both wore all black, wif little green dagger pins in der cloaks. You kin check it out fer yerselves! I'll even show ya where da place is if you'll let me go afterwards!"
