[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[GM Marvel]

To his brother's suggestion to use his dark knowledge ability, Nang replies, "They too far away.  Must be within 60' though not necessarily in line-of-site.  Also effect only lasts a minute.  Much too soon to attempt any such action."

"And bear in mind, whatever you choose, he seems to be able to listen through me. So I am going below and out of earshot until you call for me."

Nang had been watching the spell effect very closely.   "No.  I not think that is the way this magic works.  I watched as they cast spell on your arrow.  The link IS with you but I do not think the link spell is an eavesdropping device.  It is strictly communication with you as a sort of operator.  I believe they can only hear what is either directed at them or conversation you allow.  So if no one is directing their attention to speak with the Ab-dead then they don't hear what is said unless you let it."

To Selina questioning Nangs negotiation tactic, Nang replies, "They obviously a race of intelligent beings.  Both the Captain and Simon wondered why they so far away from homeland.  Maybe there is more reason then just praying on living.  Kobolds are considered evil but my people are not.  Maybe they driven by something else.  Maybe there is something we give them they will accept.  So many possibilities and only a few of which result in them turning us into undead minions."
