The party had been approached by a fairly wealthy merchant type who wanted the PC s to wander up into troll country to look for his daughter who he feared had been abducted (or worse) during a raid on an upland trading post. The poor guy was fairly distraught and the PC were trying to go pretty light on him even thought they thought it was likely the girl was dead. (They had dealt with these hill trolls before...) Anyway, the party spent a little while politely dancing around the topic of what would happen, payment wise, if the girl was in fact found dead. Then, in a moment of pure anecdotal gold, Cat, the party's thiefy-type asks just a soothingly and sympathetically as you could imagine, "Would you like us to bring the body back if it's not too badly mutilated?" After blinking at Alison, the gal running Cat, for a few moments, of course we all broke in gales of laughter. Now, more than twenty years later, when one of the old crowd makes a faux pass we will look at them and smirk, "And would you like us to bring the body back if it's not too badly mutilated?" . . .</p></blockquote><p></p>
