"He wouldn't understand. Just tell him I am mute and lets get on with this. What is this council that is looking for you?"

Syld explains what happened to the guard before heading to meet the Council.
"We had an encounter with some guy named Jirlai. Shardon, the missing goblin, gave chase to him and we were separated. This guy here we found wandering around the tunnels, he has lost his tongue for a reason he doesn't remember.
But he's a nice guy, doesn't interrupt you when you want to talk."
Syld laught a little to his own joke. He then unmounts and start walking to the tower hosting the Council.

Jansson grins at Thomas as he rides into the city. "We did stir things up a little, didn't we? Though not all the stirring was our work. We had a few problems with a mage while we were down there. It would be an idea to keep plenty of guards on the walls for the next few days."
"Do you know if Ambassador Tristam has left the city yet? I would like a word with him if he is still here."
After Thomas answers, Jansson follows Syld to the Council's tower.

Thomas nods. "A mage, eh? Yes, we'll be sure to keep our guard up."
He ponders for a moment when Tristam is mentioned. "Yes, he's still here. He sent down someone an hour or so ago, by the name of Tori'shel (tore-a-shell), to see if you were here yet. I heard that he's currently with the Council, so you might meet him there."
He takes your horses, and leads them away.

You head down to the Council's tower, much the same as you saw it earlier.
You head up the stairs, and a single voice beckons you before you enter the door. "Come."
Once inside, the six members are seated in their thrones once more, and Tristam stands there grumbling, a young human girl beside him.
"...must assist us." Tristam says as you enter the room. "If the Ashkians come over the wall, then there is no hope for us. Their navy is incredibly powerful, and our spies have told us that they are planning in to call in a war debt from Ekrain. If they bring in the elves..."
"I'm sorry, Tristam." The githyanki says. "We can only send a representative of yours to the Great Council, and see what they say. We have very little authority in this matter."
Tristam mutters something incomprehensible. "Very well."
The human on the council addresses you. "Greetings, warriors. We see that you have collected the Crystal. Well done."
The halfling then speaks. "We have no reward for you, I'm afraid. However, since it was you who recovered the Crystal, you will be allowed to retain it."
The elf then speaks. "The Great Council has forwarded a request to us. There have been troubles in the south, with a tribe of yuan-ti. They have heard of the deed you have done here, and have requested that you head south for them and represent them in the negotiations."
Tristam speaks up. "Excuse me. I must leave for Cara'nor soon. Halfling," He says, turning to Jansson. "come to my shop once you are done here to return my gun. I expect that you have kept it in decent shape."
With that, the dwarf begins to leave. Before he does, though, he turns to the group again.
"You have proven yourselves worthy this day. If you are willing, I would greatly appreciate it if your group accompanied me to the Coldlands Territory. We may need to have dicussions with several groups that might help us, and your skills may assist us in that."
Tristam continues on out the door, the young human girl following behind.
The githyanki turns to you. "As before, you may discuss this. The call does not require an answer for the next two days, in which time you can rest and consider our request. We hope that you will accept this responsibility. But if not... you have provided a great service to the cause of psionics already by recovering the Crystal. Nothing more is necessary, although more would be greatly appreciated."

"Thank you for the loan of the gun." Jansson says to Tristam. "It has been a great help to us. I'll bring it back to your shop as soon as we have finished here."
Returning his attention to the Council, Jansson again speaks.
"A couple of days to rest would be most welcome. While I can not speak for my friends, I am willing to offer my sword to your service again. But as Osius says, a little time to rest and discuss our plans would be for the best."

Nathan also declines to speak to the Council, fascinated as he is by the Gem of Telepathy...

The githyanki speaks to Osius and Jansson. "It is good that you will take the time to consider your future. Although we request this of all of you, it is not required that all of you go."
The human then speaks. "If you wish to go on this mission, then please do so. If you do not... then do not force yourself. As the venture into the Thri-Kreen tunnels, this, too, is a volunteer effort."
The elf speaks up. "The Council shall reconvene two days from now at sunrise, to further discuss your choice, and if you decide to go, brief you on the situation and prepare you for the journey ahead."
"We shall meet again, at sunrise two days hence." The githyanki says, as she and her colleagues rise. "Until then."
They go to the back of the room, stand within the boundaries of a simple white circle upon the floor, and vanish from sight.
