[sblock=To Gelik & whoever is "aiding another"]Abraxis approaches Gelik, standing over the gnome, a passive look on his face. "Gelik, it is obvious that we need to clear the air. II realize that you are uncomfortable with our situation here; we all are. But the fact remains that we must work together if we are to survive our ordeal. You strike me as an intelligent and quick-witted man. Your counsel would be a most welcome addition to our deliberations on how to proceed. It is, of course, your choice whether you will help us or not. But I think that your help could make a difference."[/sblock]
