However it seems that things were falling into place. The chieftain and Hawk approached now curious as to what he was talking about. Hawk gave him the courtesy of answering for him and then gave a formal introduction to Ulla. He figured that Hawks business in trying to not come back here was private and he wouldn't air his dirty laundry out in front of his mate like that. He'd save the question for another time on a more private fashion.<br/><br/>Still he had his guesswork. In this case the bounty said they wanted him alive so it was quite possible that Ulla made this bounty via the Pathfinder Society and Hawk had no idea it was coming from his own mate. If he had to guess, Ulla's father didn't approve which is why Hawk was running for his damn life. He probably thought it wasn't Ulla sending for him. It would certainly explain his actions before and after. However now he was having the pair join this private conversation. He knew that he was on the spot now with what he had to say next. May Hawk find this situation humorous but genuine.<br/><br/>Thus speaking in hushed words he continued,<strong>"Well met, Ulla. I am called Darius Goldborne, estranged ruler of the Padhe Empire."</strong>He would speak plainly for the pair.<strong>"I know these dunes are your home, but its clear the Kelesh won't stop hunting your tribes. I've lost my own home, and also hunted by others. I'll do what I can to help gather as many of your tribe as I can."</strong>He was working with the assumption that there was indeed more gnoll tribes that had not been found.<strong>"Lastly, I offer land and citizenship in Padhe, a new home. All I ask is support in my own quest to retake my home."</strong>He was generous with his words because it wouldn't be enough to merely give a spat of land. They had been lied to in the past by the Kelesh. They needed more than words, they wanted legitimacy, an oath.<br/><br/><hr/>Darius rolls Diplomacy and gets a result of 30.<br/>At 2021-09-11 19:11:53, Laughing Hyena (uid: 10552) rolls: 1d20a12 Result: 30 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=155727)
