[IC] A Stolen Land

[Nexendia]

Nexendia grows slightly annoyed with Valdi (She's Neutral   ), "Unless you have placed yourself under some kind of oath, you have not been entrusted to the care of these Kobolds.  They have agreed to travel with us so we may speak to someone from their tribe that may help us.  Furthermore, THEY have been asked by their leaders to bring the totem back.  They are independent beings that have successfully traveled far from home without the help of a do-gooder human to babysit them.  In fact, they haven't even asked for our help with retrieving the totem.  They wanted us to avoid this tree as much as possible.  So my thought was that since we are here, we assist them in retrieving their own totem.  Not do it for them like they are invalids.  And when I alluded to having them lure some of the mites out to be tested, I wasn't suggesting that we should then just let them slaughter each other.  We know nothing of these mites.  The kobolds could be lying or at least a little bias.  There could be more to this feud.  We need to check out the situation.  Not just start killing everyone the Kobolds have a beef with."
