Re: Day 172
"We're rapidly running out of time." Myarra adds to the greetings and well wishing.
"Our ally promised us a very limited distraction, and there are still a lot of orcs out there if they manage to get re-organized."
She turns to the Kevnan (although he's yet to tell anyone his name), even as Oren and Samuel argue for releasing all the cultists. The fourth, an elven woman, has yet to speak at all.
"I think we should release the deserters. Anyone fed up enough, or scared enough to run away, isn't likely to be a problem. The rest, however, could still be loyal, and therefore a real threat.
But I don't kill or maim people chained to a wall. So I'm willing to give them a chance, and kill them if they fail to live up to it. It's probably a mistake, but right now doing anything or nothing could be." She shrugs, causing her wings to rustle as they settle back down.
"Now, we need to move. And if you're going to be any good to us, we need to get you some gear. Francis, would they store people's stuff in one of the rooms on this floor?"
