Ye can start by telling me what the Hell is goin' on," Emus says, stepping out of the bushes.The paladin almost chokes, unsure whether to scream, laugh or cry."Emus! Thank Lothian," he finally gasps. "The kobolds have Bufer. I'll explain as we follow." * * *"Your deal was with this one," Renraw nods to Katadid. "You asked a very simple question to which there is a very simple answer, one which he failed to provide. As far as I can see, that deal is off. I'm asking you for a new deal, a deal in which you would not only receive what he failed to give you, but so much more. You asked for one number. I can give you that number, I can give you locations, names, schedules, and anything else that you might be interested i-i-in -- oh, excuse me ..."The wizard begins waving his hand frantically underneath his chin. The sneezes have nearly caught him before they subside again."I understand how important Maidensbridge is to your people, Worm. If you ever want to make your move on Wit's End, you'll either need the humans gone from there, or somehow sympathetic to you and your cause. Either way, having an agent there can only benefit you."Renraw is trying to pace as he usually does during his speeches, but he's finding it quite difficult what with being chained and all."As for identifying me, if you've been watching our village as you say you've been, you know my dwelling and I can tell you which it is. Perhaps we could develop a special code or wear identifying items of some sort. We can solve any problem if we exercise a little imagination. Please, think it over and tell me what you think what I can give you might be worth to your tribe."* * *As Emmerson explains the situation, Emus' expression grows stormy, and his expression continues to darken until the dwarf finally explodes."SUNUVABITCH! IDJIT! DAGNABBIT!" Emus then lapses into Dwarvish, the meaning of which Emmerson can only guess. "You know they'll kill him, right? Even if the lil' bitch keeps her word, there is no way in Hells all them other kobolds is gonna let him walk outta there! And y'all just turned him over to 'em! He walked right up to the choppin' block! Stupid!"Emus' face is redder than molten metal and his anger nearly as hot. He looks like he's about to hit something. But not yet."Let's go. We're gonna rescue the half-sized, half-wit piece o' crap. Take down the leader, first." Emus sets off at a trot, carrying his greatclub in both hands, mumbling to it.With a nod and a grim smile, Emmerson sets off after him.* * *Katadid's anxiety increases, rocking back and forth as though he's being bounced between two invisible walls. He looks manically between Tucker, Renraw, and the kobold. His mantra has now changed."One and one. One and one. One and one. One and one. One and one ..."Beside him, Deputy Tucker Gallaway looks at the sky."Hmmm, looks like a storm is coming."</blockquote>
