"A favor?" Ilshana asks, grinning. Her grin was a little unsettling. It always looked a bit smug, like she knew something you didn't.
She glances at the others and holds up a forestalling finger. Then she turns back to the man.
"I think that's a fair exchange, as long as you're not expecting TOO much. I mean...well, I won't name any names, but there's SOME people around here who'd probably rather just read your mind or suck out your brain and absorb your thoughts or even just...make you a mind slave and ask you to give up all that information for free!"
Ilshana shakes her head at this revelation as if she were deeply disapproving of such tactics.
"Anyway, my point is just that there's lots of ways to find things out, some less pleasant than others. But I completely agree that between civilized people, an equal exchange of items of value is warranted. Just don't overestimate the value, 'kay?"
She nods. "So. What about these Death Kobolds?"

Big Hat grins."Many have tried to suck out my brains, read my mind, and make me mind slaves. They are all dead now.
I can bring one of their emissaries here in two days. Is this satisfactory?

Two days?! The thought of waiting two days annoys Hunter, but he understands the need. He would much rather be stalking one of those evil clerics, but it seems like the days of being on the hunt alone are over. He now has allies who seek the same thing, if only be different means.
Hunter looks to Ilshana and nods. "Two days," are the only words that come out of his mouth.

Big Hat ushers you out.
The streets are empty. It is the middle of the night.
What do you do?

Once outside Latham harumphs and throws his arms up in the air in frustration.
"Two days?! Do they not know we lack patience? I say we go pick a fight. Make someone fight Dehg. For money!" He looks at Dehg and the others, obviously irritated for reasons not even he fully knows.

Ilshana shrugs. "I'm sure we can find something entertaining to do for two days."
She eyes Dehg.
"Maybe. But he might get hurt! Poor Deggy... Oh! I know! We could see if anyone else knows about the death kobolds... I bet there's sages and wizards and people who'd know. And, um, we could find a church and pee in the holy water. Or Dehg could. I could make the parishoners start chanting their catechisms backwards."
