They stand at attention while Kajalaketh also climbs down. ”Sanae.  How delightful to meet you.” He brings his fingertips together briefly before turning them outwards in what you can only assume is some sort of greeting. He greets each of the others by name, repeating the same gesture. His gaze falls on Calabas, who is almost cowering behind the pilot’s chair. ”Your servant, I assume?”  Calabas tries to speak, but only manages to open his mouth once or twice.  While his soldiers quickly and efficiently rummage through the crates and barrels, Kajalaketh turns his attention back to Sanae, apparently recognizing her as the spokesperson and leader of the group. ”Do you know, I have always been fascinated by this Silver Flame of yours? Never had a chance to see it myself, of course, and for some reason the Thranish have refused our diplomatic overtures. Such a shame. Well, if only this were a social occasion, we might have a pleasant chat about religion and other matters of great import, but, alas, we all have our jobs to do.” He turns to his soldiers, who are waiting to report.  There is a brief exchange in Riedran.  ”As I thought, we have completely wasted your time.  Please accept my most humble and sincere apologies.”  He turns to leave.  Kajalaketh has grasped the first rung of the ladder when he pauses, as if remembering something. He turns to face all of you again. ”There is just one more matter that I hope you can help me with, then you will well and truly be free to go. We have received very reliable intelligence that two smugglers matching the descriptions of you two,” he points to Sanae and ‘he has no name,' ”have brought a very dangerous and highly illegal substance known as dragon’s blood into this country. I have no doubt whatsoever that it this is merely a case of mistaken identity. But I would be remiss in my duty to your king if I did not investigate fully, so I’m afraid I must ask your permission to search their persons.” The soldiers remaining on the deck have now nocked their arrows, but are still pointing them downwards, while those in your boat have their hands on the hilts of their swords.</blockquote>
