(RP) Dangerous Legacy

[Vendetta]

"What is it that you want, Priestess." The Kobold Captain asks in his broken common.

 

[Ashy]

"A truce. A cease in agression. A chance to talk. Nothing more. Send a small contingent of your folk, leaders of your people, with us. We-" she waves her hands towards her party, "travel to Enberton to speak with our King. We can then talk of a settlement and a peace between our kind in the face of this new threat. What say you?"

"I think I have heard enough. So far, Ala, you've allowed us to be surrounded, and your solution is quite unrealistic.", says Sonrik, breaking his silence. "We are many days travel away from Emberton. I do not want to travel with these cruel beasts any more than they with me. Nor will I tarnish our true mission by throwing our triffles at the Kings feet." Sonrik gives a glare of hateful understanding to the captain. "Their leader seems fit to deal with our elders, let him do so. If not, little we do here will change things." Sonrik turns to the captain, "I tell you this, if you meet with our Elders, your people will eat. If not, many will die. Is is that simple. And no tricks, our Elders are wise." He looks around, "What say you now?"

Krueger charges the field. "AYE!" He shouts as he rushes up to Sonrik. "Them drips be naegood, aye, an' thar ain't nuthin' no one can do ta change 'em! They wert born foul an' be foul still!"

"Let's not be so... harsh, Krueger. Perhaps they do want peace. Though... there is something in Sonrik's words that ring true to me. With the dragon children of Rox'Voroth about, what would the king of Enberton want to know of Kobolds losing their homes to Hobgoblins? We can bear testimony to the King about these hobgoblin aggressions and let the king decide if there is some connection between them and the children of Rox'Voroth." Jaeden says, thinking out loud.


"BAH!" The kobold lieutenant curses and mumbles something in his own tongue.

"Not true!" Jaeden shoots back at the lieutenant. "Noble Sonrik has suggested the best course of action for you now... go under a flag of truce to Tev'El Rhoe and speak with the elders there."

"You attacked us!" The kobold captain finally shouts. "Unprovoked and for no reason at all. I demand compensation for the lives of my troops that you have taken from me!"

"I think we should just go now..." The halfling gemble whispters to He'Rak, eyeing the kobolds nervously.

 

[Knight Otu]

"Unprovoked?! Tell me then, who provoked the countless attacks on Tev'El Rhoe? Who provoked the sieges against that city? You want to be treated civil? Act civil! You may have been forced out of your home, but you have some hope to return! Many elves, however, do not have that hope! No elf will ever see our capitol again! Thel'Lorean is lost to us, and YOU threaten my second home, Tev'El Rhoe. I had no reason to show as much mercy and understanding as I did. I guess I wasted it on you."

While the captain and lieutenant look appauld by your words, it is obvious that the troops returning from the north east do not wish to fight your group. The lieutenant of that squad looks no more competent than any of his soldiers. A quick scan of the area tells you that none of the other kolbold squads will be returning in answer of the captain's cry a few moments ago.

"You are obvious ... what is your word... lunatic!" The captain growls at the party in his broken common."What does Thelorean have to do with Tevel Rhoe and our homes? But... Truce you wish, truce you shall have. We are in need of food and my people are not yet so starved that the filthy meat from your bones would provide a worthy meal. Now be gone or you'll face the might of my army and then we shall siege and sack Tevel Rhoe and claim that as our new home. Leave peacably, and perhaps we will try these talks with your elders."

"It is sufficient" Erlik states simply looking at each of his own companions and then around the faces of the assembled kobolds. This small encounter has revealed many things about these times and about those amongst whom he travels "let us part with peace.

The eagle swoops and takes the serpent in his claw" he states the old axiom of his clan "beware for the serpent may yet strike the eagles wing."
The barbarian grins at that thinking it most appropriate for the circumstance

Rak nods with his head at the comment. “Gemble, with me“ he then gather with the others making a gesture to start walking “seems to me that we all are making this day alive” ”as for you captain” “think over the proposal to be a ally and not a enemy” ”you get your caves back” “and we peace for our town” “the real treat are the Hodgoblins” “not the free races” he then lowers his crossbow.

 

[Korbin of Valenar]

Korbin

He snarls back at Korbin and hisses, "Mind yourself, pinkskin..."

Smiling wryly at the Kobold Lieutenants words, Korbin sheathes his swords.

"

Leave peacably, and perhaps we will try these talks with your elders."

He slowly begins to back away, rejoining the others.

Liam hops down from his branch and quickly moves to join the others as they move northwards. He looks warily at the kobolds as he passes by them, but makes no agressive gestures.
