Experimental Scene
"I have not lied to you once." Serafina informed their "guide". Her tone was as always a little cold and more than a little regal. "You on the other hand have said that the Bonetooth clan is not far, including once over ten miles ago, multiple times. No little one, you will be released when we clearly have laid eyes on it, and until then you are under our protection as much as you are our captive."
Serafina's speech was always very crisp and well elocuted, and she tended toward these short lectures, but sometimes they had their place. She had taken the captive herself to ease her mind the goblin wouldn't be abused. Their captive had surrendered, and had struck a bargain with her and the others that was, honestly, more valuable than his life.
"Anyway he is short with you because you have not delivered. It might do well to not constantly claim the objective is near. And it does not behoove you to generalize so, what if I said all goblins were thieves, how would that make you feel? It would be most unkind, yes?"
It amused Serafina that when he was scared for his life she was Pretty Lady and now that he felt more comfortable it was Filthy Humans. She was curious if the hound had picked something up, but she figured she needed to focus on minding her own creature better.
