Paths of Legend: The Azgundi Tournaments

[Yttermayn]

Aohdan is somewhat startled by the sudden attack. He swings his backside in front of the door and uses his bulk to control access to Entan's study.
[sblock=OOC]I'm assuming that I was just outside the door peeking in when the attack starts, so I'm not actually moving, just flavor and showing my intention to control the doorway.[/sblock]
Initiative: (1d20+2=10)

Estelle nods her head, already knowing this information without the girl telling her. The moment Alaric's opponent died, Estelle know who was behind it. So far he had been subtle, poison and doubles, but for how long would he wait patiently while his attempts failed? How long until he outright confronted them, or rather made someone else?

"Don't worry, Anareesa, you were cleared of wrong doing. Where did you meet this half-elf? What else did he tell you to do?" Estelle stays quiet and comforting.

ok, her is my question: how far away is renaldo from estell(the real) while she talks of the halfelf? I only ask, because he may need to tell her what he knows about him I figure. otherwise, he may have to wait and it may be too late.[/sblock][/sblock][/sblock][/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]Err, I'm a bit confused. Wasn't Zander supposed to say something else before Alaric, since Zander went first in the round?[/sblock]

Alaric restrains a smirk, instead nodding to the moderator and saying "I met a young dragon with the Plague some weeks ago, and he wasn't threatening at all, nor crazy. Shraezek is now in Azgund, and helping Master Entan work on and test possible cures. He wasn't duplicitous when I asked him why he was heading to Azgund, and I don't believe all dragons are a threat to us. From what I've seen, some have worked with our Adventurer's Guild to help Azgundi with their problems and suppress dangerous beasts like orcs."

After a moment's pause, he continues "If we can cure them, I'm sure more dragons will come to Azgund's aid and help safeguard our domain. We need more allies, not more enemies. If the House of Lords sends our soldiers and adventurers to hunt dragons, there will simply be fewer of us to defend Azgund from actual threats, like the orcs. We of the Adventurer's Guild are most familiar with the dangers around Azgund and how to deal wtih them, as we've been personally dealing with them for years now. I don't think Zander and his ilk have. Provoking the dragons would be far more troublesome than aiding them and gaining their aid in return."

"Me turn now? Ah find 's funnier ta make refutation! Well, where was I? Oh yeah, the trade routes:
Referring to the other discussion, ye could hire mercenaries from the guild to escort yer caravans, and make some logistics. Say, wait until the dwarven caravan arrives and then, send both yer caravan along with the empty dwarven caravan, so that you can have both groups of guards together. Tha' way pirates will think twice before they attack a group of well armed men and dwarves. And when yer caravan finish trading stuff in the dwarven lands, well, they wait untill the dwarven caravan full o' goods is ready to travel and journey with it. Nice and simple. Ye can make same arrangements with elves." The dwarf says, confident in his logical suggestion

Diplomacy: 15
