He simply gave her a bright smile and a shrug, playing dumb. In truth, he had quietly convinced Lady Lloth to pull out of the plane, citing its small drow population, especially in regards as to how much influence she otherwise had. A genocide would be simple to accomplish. Instead, he had helped her pull those still loyal to her out, and left the rest with a simple message that another would come for them, one more to their temperaments. "I am, as a tentative truce member of the divine entity in question, not allowed to either confirm nor deny any possible movements, locations, total forces, or reasons for apparent or covert actions while I am supplying constructs for various, unspecified purposes. However, as I did promise your mother, I would ensure you had a favorable location to reestablish yourself, and that certain divine entities would not be aware of said return until either they happen to randomly encounter you, their information networks discover you, or you announce yourself to them. We have portal units ready to deploy to locations of your choosing, and simply need to know which ones, up to twelve, that you want to commit to, before they head out to set up.<br/><br/>We thank you for your patronage, and hope that, for any future force or security needs, you remember the Archdragon and his Stalkers, and their quality service and multiple payment plans and options. Thank you for choosing Archdragon Defense Securities."<br/><br/>He gave her a much more intelligent grin, before resting his head against his fist, and nodded. "Yes, she lost influence on that plane, but she reinforced it just as much in total on other planes. So she willingly gave up on this plane to gain more on more important planes. And, due to a 'random' time storm, it has been several decades since the last real drow offensive, so while the other elves might be a bit cold, they shouldn't be actively hostile. I hope. But I could be completely wrong."
