Drawing upon his bardic training, Finnian pitches his voice to command attention."Enough of this! We are not going to be giving anyone as a payment or tribute. Your customs may allow it, but our customs do not. I will relate the tale of our travels and travails and you will see that we are not the evil that you fear but, in fact, are the enemies of said evil."It began far to the south when we all took passage upon a ship heading to northern ports far from here. We did not know each other before meeting upon that vessel but discovered we enjoyed each others company for discussion while aboard. While in port at a stop early in the trip, we had occasion to discover that another passenger, whom we were not able to familiarize ourselves with, was engaged in some business activities that seemed to be suspect."We decided amongst ourselves that we should try to investigate this passenger to determine whether there was cause to alert the authorities. While we were still in the midst of our investigations, the ship came under the attack of some demonic entities which we managed to dispatch. Unfortunately, those enemies had unleashed forces that brought a storm to smite the ship and drive it far from its expected course. That is how we became stranded upon your lands."When we gathered the survivors, we discovered that the subject of our investigation was not among us. So we went in search of that one to keep the object that it had from falling into the hands of the black ones that were searching for it. We were able to track the one who was fleeing and managed to reach him in time to prevent the black ones from claiming him and that which he carried. The Storm that drew you here to find us upon your shores was the result of our battle against the black ones to keep your land safe from them."Now, we need to determine how we can work together to keep your land safe. We have fought the black ones and will continue to fight the black ones for what we have recovered is too dangerous to allow them to have. We have already spilled blood and sweat guarding your lands, and now we share hospitality. Let us now discuss how we can work together to keep the black ones foiled in their desires."[sblock=OOC]If you need Perform and Diplomacy checks from Finnian, <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1355996" target="_blank">here they are.</a>Perform (Oratory) = 37.Diplomacy = 36.[/sblock]</blockquote>
