Upon hearing Alizome's opinion on the matter, Xarces nods in agreement. "I feel the same, I do not particularly trust him, and at the same time I would rather not venture blindly into the jungle...... we shall hire him, but shall make certain not to turn our backs on him."  With that Xarces returns to the table with a smile.<br/><br/>"Gunthar, you've got yourself a deal. We shall hire you on as our guide, and might I say,  I look forward to traveling with you my good man." Xarces would say speaking with enthusiasm as he reaches to shake the man's hand. Ready to make any final arrangements. He would leave out the actual location of their intended destination however until they where ready to depart.<br/><br/>[[Xarces will front the gold required for Gunthar to buy his supplies ,in the event no one else wishes to pitch in. As for the rest of the day, unless something interesting crops up he shall spend it performing around the tavern and town, attempting to make some coin back. ]]
