He smirked, and nodded.<em>Right, will go and capture a few deer and cattle for you. Might be tomorrow before I can get all that you need. Will that suffice?</em><br/><br/>It would take most of a day to get a half dozen each of deer and cattle, but his ability to trap them in 'fairly cheap' gems made moving them around and keeping them alive much easier. He also suspected that his idea of 'cheap' was heavily skewed due to hanging around dragons and fae, both of which were absolutely and obscenely wealthy in stories. Still, he had more money than he knew what to do with, other than start a social revolution that would likely not amuse the Queen, so he simply stockpiled it against future needs. It did remind him about the village that had had their well poisoned and his rescued elves, both of which he meant to check on before leaving on another mission, but it was too dark to do that today.<br/><br/>Still, it was dark by the time he had gotten back to the Court, so he passed out with the drow this time. The next morning, he sent Meridia a questing thought, this time showing he was bearing the appropriate gifts.
