A mace swings at his side as he steps forward and raises his hands; "Whoa now, hold on. I'm guessing you used to be a drill sargent back in the day, there dwarf-man, but you have to accept that we aren't army recruits. We all freely gave up our lives to come here and try and save both our worlds. Now some of us may have been fleeing possible criminal prosecution or otherwise bad situations;" and for an instant his eyes flicker towards the people going for the door, "but now that we are here, we work together or we all die. Now the briefing says we have to keep the peasants of Lindor alive, magnificent seven style, we've got two months to build fortifications and take control of the situation. No need to go running off half cocked or to be making trouble among ourselves the very first day. The way I see it, we've got to figure out some quick strategic goals, get all the info from this here native mage, and then we can decide who goes where and does what." Barely pausing his flow of words he turns to Rymus, "Now then, mister mage-man, you say you don't have any maps of the city, what can you tell us about that black tower? Do you know where the savage races are coming from? How about a map of the world? And don't tell me you don't know any of this; Your boss is going to all this trouble to get help, I'm sure he's taken the time make sure we can survive long enough to not only pay him back but also give us some tools to fix his problems. You say hobgoblins are the smart ones who are running the whole show on the other side, where are their home territories, what do they fear, any diseases or poisons that affect them but not us? And finally how are we getting there? Another mass teleport spell? A whole lot of boats? Do the enemy have boats? What about underwater dwelling races?" Finally running out of breath, he pauses and rests his gesticulating hands on his hips.</blockquote>
