I'll even take the short of it if there ends up being an uneven division." Partly because he was, financially speaking, in a very stable position right now; however, part of this decision of his was also that he didn't want there to be any squabbling later on down the line. During his time as a conscript, there had been some plundering... it was to be expected, really. He saw how people could quickly forget about their purpose, or their true enemy, when they were suddenly staring at treasure. He figured he could cut off that problem, here and now, by making it a non-issue. And if he missed out on a few gold, so what? There were more valuable things in life, like peace, order, and stability.<br/><br/>"Elven cuisine is pretty nice," He'd say to Ares. "Definitely a fair change from what we've been having here. Just make sure to mind your manners at court, or there'll be no feasting." He said politely, diplomatically. It was true, after all; if they actually wanted to sit down and dine with nobility or the like, they'd have to have at least a modicum of civility and that meant no swearing, at the least.<br/><br/>"Yes, sooner we take them out, the better. That kind of money will turn fools into dead men... or worse, hostages. And if there are hostages, then we'll have to play things carefully. Once we find their base, we'll have to scout the place out, take an accounting of them, attack them when they're vulnerable... and again, if their are hostages, we'll have to act in a manner that does not imperil their lives." Leofwine was not a tactician, he was a foot soldier; but he had picked up at least some of the fundaments of tactical planning from his time as a conscript. Now, whether fundaments alone would be enough...and if he could actually get this rag tag band to follow a plan...<br/><br/>His attention flickered over to the woman warrior when she introduced herself. "Oh! You've been training with Master Soveliss? That's good, then. I'm sure you'll put what you've learned to good practice. I was actually pretty happy when I heard he took on a disciple, even though I didn't follow up on finding out who it was."<br/><br/>"Mm... well, I guess you have a point, Vara. It's pretty derogatory.  I suppose we could just call him the Bandit Chief?" A shrug of the shoulders. He knew what she was getting at, but maybe because of his own mixed blood, he didn't think much of it. "Anyways. We should probably get stocked up on supplies, and head out. I'm not sure about all of you, but I actually have a horse for riding on, and saddle bags for some of our gear; rations and the like. Are we agreed on headed out to Deveraux's store, then?"
