I think it might have half of the artifact with it, or maybe it IS the artifact. Either way it's what we're looking for. Or half of it at least"</em>he sent out the telepathic message to all his fellow party members within range, the elves left completely unaware of the silent communication.<br/><br/>(PC's)<em>"we need a plan. how are we supposed to deal with this elf lady?"</em>he continued, doing his best not to stare at the elves of the tree demon too overtly, (Eli)<em>"and no we're not killing her"</em>he quickly added, specifically to Eli, (Eli)<em>"no fire either"</em>he added again, trying to cover all the bases.<br/><br/>As Kalinta slithered up to him he gave a silent nod and handed her a bundle of twigs and branches to act as an excuse to move over to the edge of the deck together to discard them, (PC's)<em>"I have an idea. If I speak in yes or no questions, then you can all respond with a slight nod or shake of your head, that way we can try to plan something without you needing to speak out loud"</em>he suggested, (PC's)<em>"Does that sound like a good idea?"</em>he asked, which was fittingly enough a perfect test of the concept.
