Description

"Whatever the reasons or cause," says Kahz, "I am most sorry for our Prince Dargand - having to be the one to marry one of their brood. Kafus Thunderaxe has only raised children as manipulative and conniving as he himself. Gwealla is certainly not the worst of them, but she is a Thunderaxe." "I wonder what she has planned for Dargand..." mutters Kahz with a thoughtful expression on his face. "Would you like to see what we can learn about this?"

Quest Offering "Whatever the reasons or cause," says Kahz, "I am most sorry for our Prince Dargand - having to be the one to marry one of their brood. Kafus Thunderaxe has only raised children as manipulative and conniving as himself. Gwealla is certainly not the worst of them, but she is a Thunderaxe." "I wonder what she has planned for Dargand..." mutters Kahz with a thoughtful expression on his face. "Would you like to see what we can learn about this?" Orrion Blackbeard You say, "Permission to enter, Orrion Blackbeard." Orrion studies you critically and asks, ""What business do you have here?" You say, "I've heard of the might of the Thunderaxes. I wanted to see for myself." Orrion chuckles and says, "I'm not so sure that you will get a good sense of that barging into their home." "I wish to speak with them," you say. "And why should they want to speak with you?" asks Orrion Blackbeard gruffly. You notice that he flexes his grip on the handle of is axe. "Because I speak with people," you say, "and they listen." "Oh?" asks Orrion. "You think they'll listen to you so easily?" "They will," you say, "would you like to make a wager on it?" Orrion grunts and rolls his eyes. "I don't bet money," he says, "it ogt me in a patch of trouble some time back." "But I would like to see this," he says. "I'd like to see you thrown out on your arse for troubling them." "Well then," you say, "the challenge seems to be drawn. Though it requires nothing from you except standing at the door." Orrion narrows his eyes at the insult and shoots out his chest. "So it has," says Orrion, "we'll see how you stand up to it." Gwealla "Gwealla Thunderaxe," you say, "it is an honor." Gwealla blinks rapidly and gazes at you. "Oh?" she asks. "Who are you, then?" "I am <name>," you reply. "And what's your business here, <name>?" asks Gwealla. "I am here because I wish to establish ties with the powerful people in this city," you say. "And who is more powerful than the Thunderaxes?" Gwealla looks distinctly pleased. "You doubt our monarchs?" she asks. "We are not halflings," you say, "we don't play games. We know who is really in power here." "Your up-and-coming marriage is a deft move," you say. An odd look flashes across her features, vanishing almost as quickly as it appeared. "Deft, yes," she says, "it will finally bring together our families." "It is unfortunate that you have to marry a Flamehammer, though," you say. "Unfortunate?" asks Gwealla with a chuckle. "I suppose." You find that she is being strangely elusive. "You don't think it's unfortunate?" you ask. "No," she says, "not particularly." "Well then," you say, "it appears to be good for everyone..." Quest Completion Kahz eyes you and asks, "You didn't exactly glean much, did you?" Kahz says, "You said she acted strangely though? We need to know more about the source of this behavior..."
