Any disruption would be bad for business.<br/>Still, Sondanwe saw wisdom in it. There was no reason to get involved in any dispute. She would stay neutral unless the hobgoblins made the first move. Then she would insulate herself with the orcs' favor.<br/>When Kitty finished speaking Sondanwe said nothing and continued sipping her wine.<br/>She was half finished with her glass when an actual wood elf walked in!<br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 9pt;"><em>So lin- elves -esse er sinome!</em></span>she exclaimed excitedly in elvish - the wine was influencing her mood, she could tell. She had been fascinated by wood elves as a child. They were like High Elves but feral, not as sophisticated as High Elves but they had a certain folk wisdom to them.<br/>The creature walked in timidly and dipped her legs in the water and in typical wood elf fashion dispensed with any pleasantries making her desires known; It was some druid business. A curse of the land she wanted solved, which seemed to be what wood elves always wanted. A dam needed to be built or destroyed- some rock was out of place, or too many trees had been felled. They were very particular.<br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 9pt;"><em>Ni admire manen emote tye are.  </em></span>she said with a polite smile.<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 9pt;"><em>Ni'm ruce- ni don't sinte mana i curse na- or manen ana solve -yes. N-sides, ni'm quite busime at i lú.</em></span>she held up her glass to accentuate her point.<br/><br/>Sondanwe wasn't surprised when Alisandra volunteered to go. What was it about this place that made these two want to fix it so terribly?<br/>She would let them figure out how to remove the curse on their own."<strong>Kitty, did you not say you'd have a private room available for me?</strong>"<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">So many elves in one place!</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">I admire how passionate you are.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">I'm afraid I don't know what the curse is or how to solve it.
