The Prince dives gustily into the presented food. It is by far better than the trail rations and campfire fair he has been living off of lately. He feels magnanimous enough to compliment the kobolds on their feast, recognizing their primitive attempt to entertain exalted guests. "A fine spread, quite tasty indeed. The ale is just the right touch." He downs a glass and waves for it to be refilled again.
As he eats, he tries to pay attention to what is being discussed about the fortress. When it looks like they are waiting for him to answer he finishes swallowing and says, "A fortress would be a fine start to my kingdom. We'll need a place for the stables, an armory, garrison, possibly a tower... it should have a moat as well I would think.
We can certainly survey the site to see what we are up against. I wouldn't be overly concerned about the odds. They'll be lazy with no real opposition in the region for so long. While I prefer a good stand up fight, a night raid would take them by surprise. They probably won't even have guards posted!"
The Prince trails off and resumes drinking, already picturing the new fortifications he'll have constructed once the fort is his.
