"Why we're here, Tuculcha?!" asked the Drow rhetorically. "The answer to that question is strictly on a need to know basis, and frankly my dear, you don't need to know!""As far as trespassing on your private property goes," remarked the Swordsman evenly.
"Considering the fact that you trespassed inside my dreams as well as those of Ashleyien in an effort to kill both of us, I think we should call it even at this point!"
"But if you wish to retire and go to your study, by all means do so," encouraged the Dark Elf brightly. "We'll be more than happy to brave the traps and wards that you've got set up here, especially now that we have a new trap detector!" Smiled the Swordsman, gently tapping the backpack with the tip of his blade.
"But all of that pain and anguish this bird would suffer can be easily avoided if you remove all of the wards, glyphs, and traps that you have setup and stay out off our way as I ask." repeated Sterling matter of factly. "If you do so, I'll give you my word as a nobleman and as a warrior, that no harm shall befall your familiar and that it shall be returned to you once we are finished here--you know that my word is my bond. If you refuse, then we'll press onwards using Mr. Nevermore as an all too convenient trap detector--take it or leave it, Tuculcha, I WILL NOT MAKE THIS OFFER AGAIN!"
