The road to Vrux.

Morrison approaches the trees to the left. He didn't detect anything.

The two soldiers seems very nervous when Rell tries to move the boxes. "Don't touch the boxes, you are not allowed to move or open thoses boxes. They both look at Rell with an agressive look. The soldier are putting their hands on their swords as a warning.

Rell Half-Giant Soul Knife

Rell makes a calming gesture and takes his hands away from any boxes. "Relax, I wasn't trying to break any rules. I was simply thinking that if 20 or 30 raiders coming running out of the woods I'd like a few boxes in front of me for cover. I wasn't going to take anything off the wagon. If you prefer that we stand here like bumps on a log in order to follow the rules then that's what we'll do. If you change your minds then let me know and we'll move a couple. It's up to you."
 

Having found nothing, Morrison will walk back to the wagon. "Why are you so concerned about the boxes? What possible harm could it do for Rell to move them a little for cover?"

Morrison turns to Nadour "Why would you order that we are not allowed to touch the boxes? I think it makes good sense for him to take what cover he can."
 

Nadour turns calmly towards Morrison. "Our mission is to protect the content of those boxes even with our lives. Please this is not the time to discuss, let's stay focuss on the task at hand and we could discuss once we are safe in the village.
Morrison pick the pouch and let's go


Nadour seems to be really stressed about the whole situation.
 

Makas (dwarf warrior)

Makas immediately dismounts at the first hint of trouble, not wanting to be caught in battle on some horse. He draws his throwing axe and waits to see what happens. With nothing occuring, he relaxes slightly, and delays remounting for as long as possible - eagre to remain out of the saddle to save areas of his body not familiar with the punishment of riding.
 


"Nadour, you didnt answer my question. Why would your men threaten to attack Rell just for touching the boxes? Dont worry, we have time enough for you to explain.

But if you are so concerned about the pouch, pick it up yourself."
 

Nadour do not seems as confident as he was two days ago. He looks nervously at Morrison, frowning his eyebrows. "Young insolent, I don't have to answer your question, you are here to protect the caravan not to ask question"

Nadour gets really agitated, he unsheat his sword. "If you are looking for a fight you will get it. If you care about your life, keep your question to yourself and let's cross these last few miles united against any attack"

The two soldiers also put their hand on the handle of their swords ready to attack, one of them keep an eye on Rell and the other looks at the others.

Why are they so touchy about the boxes?

"Listen gentlemen, let's just keep moving to safety. All this posturing will only leave us in danger longer." He holds his javelin causually and tries what he hopes will be a non-threatening smile.
 

"Now you draw your sword on me? Nadour, we aren't just here to guard your caravan, we are here to deal with the bandit problem on this road. Right now, you have me half convinced that you are working with the bandits. I suggest you put away that toy, and start answering my questions. Remember the longer you refuse, the longer we stay here."
