Speaking Undercommon:
<"We aren't here to attack you or your Matriarch. Will you speak with us?">

Looking aside at Whis Kor and returning to common in a hushed whisper..."I'm not the diplomatic sort."

by Archengeia Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:35 am

The 'head' Kobold looks at the Fairy and Sclavi hesitently, then speaks in plain Common. "You just want to trick us... we've heard from Gnolls. We're not enemies with them anymore, we work together against slayers... like you!" His small lizard-like face turns into a scowl. "Slayers and betrayers. Gnolls do work for you, you turn on them, kill them just because they Gnolls, no need to honor a bargain with a lesser species." The Kobold spits. "The way the 'civilized races' deal with our kind is exactly why we settled here in the first place!"

The head Kobold looks between the Elf and Gnome, wariness in his eyes. "Why would you want to talk now?"

"It's better than shouting in something they don't understand" he hisses back.

*to the head Kobold*

"We are not them."

by Rellan Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:36 am

The unison Undercommon request from Kolson causes Rellan to breathe a sigh of relief. Hopefully the Red Mage would take care of any diplomacy with the Kobolds.

"You speak of the red-beared Orc, I presume, kobold. Make no mistake, he is not among our allies. Our quarrel is not with your kind; call off your troops."

by K Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:38 am

*continues*

"We were tricked into this business, same as you."

by Hanuel and Dara(Toilarin) Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:39 am

Hanuel addresses the Kobold speaking common. "If what you say of the Gnolls is true, then we have all been tricked. We were told the Gnolls were attacking the town unprovoked. What work did the Gnolls do, and for who? We wish to bring the betrayer to justice, and we can only do so if someone can come forth with evidence and testimony."

"We have been betrayed as well, friend," continues Kolson in Undercommon, "As you know, the one who made a deal with the gnolls now seeks to get rid of them. He tricked us into doing so. But we know that isn't right, so we have come to make amends. Please, will you at least hear us out?"

The lead Kobold hesitates another moment, considering the terribly unconvincing words of the Fairy, but then slowly lowers his spear and returns it to his side. "What is it you want then? You are clearly armed and organized... what purpose could you have other than violence?"

by Rory Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:45 am

Rory emerges from hiding with his knife sheathed, attempting to appear nonthreatening.
"It is all a scheme. Oakenheart billed the adventurer's guild to deal with you under the false pretense that you were a threat. He meant to use us to eliminate you as a loose end, and we have reason to believe that he will do the same to us quietly."

"Our safety if a concern, especially going in to unknown territory such as this. I see you too are prepared, yet we have not clashed. Neither of us wishes to pointlessly fight an unneeded battle. Please, let us lower weapons and discuss our common grievances."

Whis Kor lowers his shield from a ready position, keeping it at his side.

"The slaying of the gnoll should never have happened. It was a mistake. A rash one, and we were tricked into by the orc known as the Guardian. We know the gnolls didn't kill anyone, didn't steal anything. We want to set this right."

by Archengeia Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:54 am

The Kobold calms down considerably. "I suppose even the civilized races bicker amongst one another." He gestures for the other 3 Kobolds to put their arms down. "I know very little about what has been going on past what I myself have fought... I am but a simple guard, glad though I am that soon we will be getting our home back. If you want to learn more I can arrange for you to meet the Matriarch."

by Snarg of Wildpaw Tue Feb 19, 2013 12:56 am

"Please, we would be most grateful to meet your Matriarch."
