Jacquard stops and looks toward Samuel and they exchange glances.

Samuel says "we're happy hear that report, we came expecting resistance, and that sounds like a lot, I'm not sure we could have handled it all to be fair. I am still concerned about rumors of a dragon in the area, perhaps in this vary lair. Might you have missed it? There could be an upper draft where the dragon resides." He moves to and kicks at the shaman's body, "a nasty beast, would have been quite difficult to take down. So thanks are in order for that." He sighs, "Goblin women and children guarding the supplies is still problematic, I'd hate to have to kill women and children of any race, especially intelligent ones, but they are criminals."

Jacquard looks to him, "she said they're not a threat, they might negotiate for the supplies. I'm not opposed to preventing further bloodshed if they make amends by handing over the supplies."

Samuel agrees then turns to Yulya, "We do know of Gundren and his brothers, they requested supplies last season and he's been asking around Leilon for help to make more deliveries, but we couldn't honestly allow that if it's unsafe. Well I hope for a speedy rescue and safe travels, we'll set up camp here until the morning and then begin the negotiations." He seems satisfied, and turns back to Jacquard, "we'll report back once we have secured the shipment."

Ashley wakes up and steps outside, "Hey, what's going on?" she says rubbing her eyes.

Samuel repeats a few key lines and she seems concerned.

"Oh, so let me go in with you, it's kinda treacherous in there and they're probably going to be confused by your entrance so soon after we left. I've talked to them and they're willing to give the supplies already, no negotiations needed."

Samuel and Jacquard both smile kindly, "In that case, we're willing to do that now so we don't delay your departure in the morning if you're willing," Jacquard says.
